Live Schema And Examples

Use the compact schema above for ordinary calls. Before a new production integration, or whenever parameters, enum values, nested objects, outputs, or examples are unclear, fetch live details first.

• Exact schema: call agentpmt-tool-search-and-execution with action: "get_schema", and tool_id: "custom-telegram-bot".
• Detailed examples: call agentpmt-tool-search-and-execution with action: "get_instructions" and tool_id: "custom-telegram-bot", or call this product with action: "get_instructions" when the product tool is already selected.
• Treat returned live schema and instructions as more specific than this generated summary.

MCP schema lookup through the main AgentPMT MCP server:

{
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "AgentPMT-Tool-Search-and-Execution",
    "arguments": {
      "action": "get_schema",
      "tool_id": "custom-telegram-bot"
    }
  }
}

For live examples, keep the same MCP tool and use these arguments:

{
  "action": "get_instructions",
  "tool_id": "custom-telegram-bot"
}

Use the setup skill for the account connection details before making REST calls.

Response Handling

• Treat the returned JSON as the source of truth for this tool call.
• If the response includes warnings or correction targets, apply them before retrying.
• If the response includes a passed or success-style boolean, use it as the workflow gate.
• If validation fails or the response shape is unclear, call get_schema or get_instructions before retrying.
• If get_updates fails, preserve the request parameters and retry only after fixing schema, auth, or payment errors.

Security

• Do not place account secrets, wallet private keys, mnemonics, signatures, or payment headers in prompts or logs.
• Keep tool inputs scoped to the minimum content needed for the task.
• Use the setup skills for credential handling; this product skill only defines product-specific behavior.
