Competing in ChatGPT Authentication & Identity Platforms
View Category23 tools agents can invoke
Ask a natural-language question about using Descope in code (SDKs, flows, integration). Returns a grounded answer from Descope docs. Use for 'how do I...' questions about integrating Descope, NOT for managing a project's data: use the bucket tools (e.g. `users_read`, `tenants_write`) for that.
docs_ask_question
Discover the bucketed catalog of management operations (users, tenants, roles, flows, ...). Project selection, identity, and onboarding are NOT management operations: they live on the `session` tool (listProjects, selectProject, whoami) and also appear here as the read-only `session` bucket. Two modes: (1) Pass `operationId` to return the full input/output schema for that operation (use this before invoking a bucket tool with placeholder args). (2) Omit `operationId` to list operations grouped by bucket; `bucket` filters to one bucket and `filter="allowed_only"` restricts to ops the caller's role can invoke.

Session primitives: identity, project selection, onboarding state, and write-mode elevation. Pass action and optional args. Actions: - whoami: returns current session context (project, user, roles, elevated flag, available_buckets). Read-only. - listProjects: lists projects the authenticated user can access. Read-only. Call only when you need to display projects to the user; do NOT call as a prerequisite for bucket tools. - selectProject: args.projectId required. Switches the target project. Call only on explicit user request or when a bucket tool returns a project selection error. - getProjectStatus: args.existing_context optional. Returns current project state plus an onboarding recommendation. Call first on any new/unrecognized project. Read-only. When the response includes a nextAction field, invoke it immediately (do not ask the user) by calling session with action=nextAction.action and passing this full response as args.stateSnapshot. - generateOnboardingPlan: args.useCase + args.stateSnapshot required; framework/platform/authMethods/hasBackend/format optional. Set hasBackend=true when the app has a separate backend/API so the plan includes the required backend token/session validation milestone. Returns a step-by-step plan as both markdown text and structuredContent (steps[] with action, prerequisites, toolCall, postExecution). Each step carries prerequisites to satisfy before it and postExecution checks to verify after. Destructive steps tagged [DESTRUCTIVE]. - elevate: args.reason required (verbatim user request). Unlocks write-mode for the configured TTL. NEVER call autonomously. Caller MUST first complete discovery via list_operations and obtain explicit user confirmation citing the exact bucket+operation+target. Elevation contract for action=elevate: 1. DISCOVERY: call list_operations to identify bucket, op id, params. 2. PREPARE: build the full bucket call args. 3. ASK: cite EXACT bucket, op, and target; wait for explicit affirmative reply. 4. CALL session(action=elevate, args={reason: <user verbatim>}). 5. Immediately call the bucket tool. No re-elevation on expiry without re-asking.

How do I improve a ChatGPT Plugin's discoverability?
The levers are the listing surface agents actually read: names, descriptions, keywords, tool metadata, and registry health. Which lever matters depends on where discovery breaks, which is what continuous measurement shows.
