# Vidext

Use this skill when a user wants to search or inspect a Vidext workspace, or to plan and build learning modules with the Vidext author, through the remote Vidext MCP server.

## Capabilities

- Search the organization's profile, its sources, and their processed content, then read a bounded slice of a matching source.
- List recent modules the user can access and whether each is live.
- Talk to the Vidext author, the agent that plans and builds modules in the workspace: send it the user's messages, answer its questions, follow its progress, and stop it.

## Tool Selection

- Use `search_knowledge` and `read_knowledge_source` for organization knowledge.
- Use `list_modules` for modules and whether each is live.
- Use `author_send`, `author_answer`, `author_updates`, `author_stop` and `list_conversations` to work with the author. The server's instructions say how to relay the user's words and the author's questions.

## Scopes

- `mcp:read` grants the read tools and `mcp:author` the author tools. A call to a tool the connection was not granted answers 403 `insufficient_scope`; connect again to add the scope.

## Entry Points

- Read product context from /llms.txt and /developers.
- Discover MCP metadata at /.well-known/mcp.
- Connect to the MCP transport at /api/mcp after OAuth authorization. /api/mcp/operator is a deprecated alias of it.
- On authenticated app pages, use browser WebMCP tools from `document.modelContext` for page navigation and module lookup.
