## Available in your setup.

Versions can differ. The overview describes the hosted source; the public release and its instructions are shown separately below.

Arch Studio 1.5.1.2 · MCP — Defined in the hosted release source as an operation contract. Your assistant performs the operation with its own available tools; the hosted connection does not execute it remotely.

Arch Studio 1.5.1.2 · Open source — A helper exists at this source path in the public plugin. Run it only in a compatible local host; its implementation may differ from the hosted version.

<a id="capability-example"></a>

## Try a first task.

An example prompt to adapt with your own brief and inputs.

Help me with ff&e source intake. Tell me which of your available capabilities you will use, explain the inputs and the proposed operation before proceeding, and say how you will verify the result. If a required capability is unavailable, tell me the concrete limitation.

## Use it in your practice.

Tools are operation contracts: each defines the inputs, rules and required checks of one operation. Your assistant performs it with capabilities available in its workspace. Optional skill-source validation is a separate bounded server operation, not the execution engine for normal workflows.

Provide authorized inputs and the required host capabilities, then review the result before saving or issuing it.

## The skill that puts it to work.

## Make it your own.

Bring your standards, source material and review criteria. Define the expected output and where a person checks the work, then adapt the method as your practice learns. Keep firm-specific instructions in your studio, outside the installed plugin, so updates preserve your work.
