VASTlint

Validate a VAST XML tag against the IAB VAST 2.0-4.3 specification. Returns all issues found with severity, rule ID, location, and spec reference. A document is valid when errors == 0, regardless of warning or info count. Use wrapper_depth when validating a document inside a w...

Fetch a VAST tag from a URL and validate it. Handles redirects. Use max_depth to control how deep wrapper chains are followed (default 5, per IAB VAST 4.x recommendation). AI agents typically receive VAST URLs rather than raw XML -- use this tool for that case.

Follow a VAST wrapper chain from a URL, fetching and validating every hop. Returns each hop as a structured object: AdSystem, AdTitle, Duration, impression count, tracking event count, media files (with MIME type, dimensions, bitrate, URL), companion count, and per-hop validat...

List the full catalog of VAST validation rules available in vastlint. Returns rule IDs, default severities, and descriptions. Call this once and cache the result -- the catalog is static. Use rule IDs from this list with explain_rule for full details and fix guidance.

No parameters. Call it with no arguments.

Get full details for a specific VAST validation rule: description, spec reference, severity, what triggers it, and how to fix it. Use rule IDs from list_rules. This is the primary tool for understanding and fixing VAST issues flagged by validate_vast.

Auto-fix a VAST XML tag. Applies all deterministic, safe fixes: HTTP → HTTPS upgrades in all URL-bearing elements, and removal of deprecated attributes. Returns the repaired XML, a list of every fix applied (rule ID + description + path), and any remaining issues that require...

AdCP protocol discovery. Returns the AdCP version, supported protocols, and governance capabilities of this vastlint agent. Call this first when integrating vastlint into an AdCP creative pipeline — it declares which VAST creative features can be evaluated (spec compliance, HT...

AdCP content-standards specialism. Lists content governance standards. When called with an 'account' object, returns buyer-defined standards stored for that brand. Without an account, returns the built-in catalog of VAST-relevant standards. Supports cursor-based pagination via...

AdCP content-standards specialism. Creates a new set of content quality policies for a brand. Policies include brand safety rules, imagery quality requirements, and compliance constraints. Returns a standards_id that can be used with calibrate_content and validate_content_deli...

AdCP content-standards specialism. Retrieves the full details of a specific content standard, including all policies and their enforcement levels. Requires Bearer authentication.

AdCP content-standards specialism. Updates the policies on an existing content standard set. The supplied policies array replaces the existing policy set. Requires Bearer authentication.

AdCP content-standards specialism. Permanently removes a content standard set. Callers relying on the standards_id for calibrate_content or validate_content_delivery should retire those integrations first. Requires Bearer authentication.

AdCP content-standards specialism. Evaluates a creative artifact against a content standard set before delivery. Returns a per-policy verdict and an overall pass/fail result. Use this as a pre-flight check before launching a campaign. Requires Bearer authentication.

AdCP content-standards specialism. Validates that delivered creatives met the content standards. Accepts delivery records with creative references and returns per-record compliance status plus an overall summary. Requires Bearer authentication.

AdCP creative governance. Lists creatives known to this agent. For a validation-only agent like vastlint, this always returns an empty collection — creatives are validated on demand via validate_vast rather than stored. Requires Bearer authentication.
