Onboarding and drift

Get started fast, follow a learning path, see where curated KBs drift from live Canton state.

7 tools in this group.

detect_drift

Find contradictions between docs, forum and GitHub on a topic. Returns counts of how each surface talks about it plus the most recent doc-page and forum statement so the caller can spot mismatches. Distinct from get_kb_drift (which compares foundation_kb to live releases).

curl -X POST https://ccpedia.xyz/mcp \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"detect_drift","arguments":{}}}'

get_api_reference

Get a structured reference (ports, endpoints, services, links) for one specific Canton Network API: JSON Ledger API, gRPC Ledger API, Scan API, Validator API, Token Standard APIs, Admin API, or Splice HTTP. Canton-specific. not for GitHub, REST, or non-Canton APIs. Use when the user names one of these Canton APIs; use search/semantic_search for broader doc lookups.

curl -X POST https://ccpedia.xyz/mcp \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"get_api_reference","arguments":{}}}'

get_faq

Look up answers in the Canton Network developer FAQ (Canton Foundation curated, hackathon-tested): Canton/Daml installation, party creation, Daml contracts, Ledger/Scan APIs, testnet deployment, Canton Coin/token standard, common gotchas. Returns top 3 matches. Canton-specific. do NOT use for other blockchains or general/non-Canton questions. For a full onboarding path use get_started_guide; for API endpoint details use get_api_reference.

curl -X POST https://ccpedia.xyz/mcp \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"get_faq","arguments":{}}}'

get_kb_drift

Report where the Foundation Build-on-Canton KB snapshot (which CCPEDIA syncs daily from github.com/canton-network-devs/Build-on-Canton-MCP) diverges from CCPEDIA's live signals (github_releases, mailing_messages). Returns each drifted (category, key) with the KB value, the live value derived right now, the drift age in days, and severity (info | warn | stale). Use this when a user or another agent quotes a Canton SDK / Splice / DPM / Daml version from foundation_kb and you need to confirm whether it is still current. CCPEDIA-specific transparency layer. no other Canton MCP server exposes this kind of cross-source quality audit. Canton/Daml/Splice ecosystem only.

curl -X POST https://ccpedia.xyz/mcp \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"get_kb_drift","arguments":{}}}'

get_radar

Get the Canton Network Radar. CCPEDIA's curated feed of time-sensitive ecosystem alerts: breaking changes, upgrade deadlines, protocol migrations and required validator actions, each with deadline, affected components and source link. Filter by level (critical/important/ecosystem/all). Canton-only. Use when a user asks what's changing, what's about to break, or what deadlines are approaching on Canton.

curl -X POST https://ccpedia.xyz/mcp \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"get_radar","arguments":{}}}'

get_started_guide

Generate a personalized Canton Network developer onboarding/quickstart path. Use when a developer asks how to start building, build a dApp, or develop on Canton specifically. Canton-only. do not use for onboarding to other chains or tools. Ask the user's background first (EVM, Solana, Sui/Move, Web, Enterprise, or New to Blockchain). Prefer this over 'search' for 'how to build / get started on Canton'; use get_faq for a single specific gotcha and get_api_reference for API details.

curl -X POST https://ccpedia.xyz/mcp \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"get_started_guide","arguments":{}}}'

learning_path

Construct a structured Canton onboarding sequence for a stated goal: whitepaper → relevant docs → CIPs to know → forum starter threads → talks. Canton-specific. Topic-driven (distinct from get_started_guide which is background-driven).

curl -X POST https://ccpedia.xyz/mcp \
  -H 'content-type: application/json' \
  -H 'accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"learning_path","arguments":{}}}'
