- manage_firewall_rule: Add, remove, disable, or enable a firewall rule on a MikroTik router. Uses comment as idempotency key for deduplication and identification. Supports dry-run mode.
- ping: Send ICMP echo requests from the router to a target address. Returns per-packet RTT and summary statistics. 100% packet loss is a valid result, not an error.
- traceroute: Trace the network path from the router to a target address. Returns an ordered hop list with RTT per hop. Timeouts and partial results are valid responses.
- torch: Capture a real-time traffic snapshot on a router interface. The tool call blocks for the duration (seconds) and returns top flows by bytes. readOnlyHint true — auto-retry enabled.
- get_log: Read and filter the system log from a MikroTik router. Supports filtering by topic, message prefix, and a time window (last N minutes) measured against the router's own clock. Entries with unparseable timestamps are included conservatively.
- get_system_clock: Read the current date, time, and timezone from a MikroTik router. Focused single-purpose alternative to the clock section in get_system_status.
- set_system_clock: Set the system date, time, and/or timezone on a MikroTik router. Idempotent: returns already_set if the values already match. Supports dry-run.
- reboot: Trigger a controlled router reboot with an optional delay. Supports dry-run. Use this tool instead of run_command for reboots — run_command's deny list blocks /system reboot*.
- run_command: Execute an arbitrary RouterOS console command via SSH. Guarded by an allow/deny policy (built-in deny list blocks destructive commands; tighten via cmdAllow in routers.yaml or MIKROMCP_CMD_ALLOW). Prefer dedicated tools (reboot, etc.) where available. Output capped at 4000 characters.

- manage_wireguard_interface: Add, remove, enable, or disable a WireGuard interface. Idempotent by name. RouterOS generates the private key on create — it is never passed in. The public key is returned after creation.
- list_dns_entries: List static DNS entries on a MikroTik router with optional filtering by name and type.
- manage_dns_entry: Add or remove a static DNS entry. Idempotent by name+type: add returns already_exists if the same record already exists.

- manage_dns_settings: Update DNS resolver settings (upstream servers, cache size, cache TTL, allow-remote-requests). Idempotent: returns no_change if nothing differs.
- list_mangle_rules: List firewall mangle rules on a MikroTik router in evaluation order. Supports filtering by chain, action, and disabled state.
- manage_mangle_rule: Add, remove, enable, or disable a firewall mangle rule. Uses comment as idempotency key. Supports dry-run mode.

- manage_script: Add, update, or remove a RouterOS script. Idempotent by name. add throws CONFLICT if the name already exists; update throws NOT_FOUND if it does not. Supports dry-run.
- run_script: Execute a named RouterOS script. Fire-and-forget — the script runs asynchronously and its output is written to the router system log. Use get_log after calling this tool to see results.
- list_scheduled_jobs: List RouterOS scheduler entries on a MikroTik router with next-run time, interval, and disabled state.
- manage_scheduled_job: Add, update, remove, enable, or disable a RouterOS scheduler entry. Idempotent by name. add throws CONFLICT if name exists; update throws NOT_FOUND if it does not. Supports dry-run.
- list_packages: List installed RouterOS packages with version and enabled status.
- manage_package: Enable or disable a RouterOS package. Changes take effect only after a router reboot — use the reboot tool to apply. Idempotent: no-op if already in the target state.
- list_files: List files on a MikroTik router filesystem. Supports filtering by name and type.
- get_file_content: Read a text file's contents from a MikroTik router. Only suitable for text files — binary files will return garbled content.
- upload_file: Upload a text file to a router, overwriting any existing file of the same name. Prefers SFTP (encrypted, over SSH) and falls back to plaintext FTP if SFTP is unavailable. Requires SSH (or FTP) access for the router user. Dry-run tests connectivity only.
- delete_file: Delete a file from the router filesystem by name. Idempotent: returns not_found gracefully if the file does not exist.
- list_containers: List RouterOS container instances with status, image, and network information.
- manage_container: Create, start, stop, or remove a RouterOS container. create needs a pre-configured veth interface; start/stop are no-ops when already in the target state; remove throws NOT_FOUND when absent. Supports dry-run.

- manage_ip_service: Enable or disable a RouterOS IP service (api, api-ssl, ssh, telnet, www, www-ssl, winbox, ftp). Port number changes are intentionally not supported to prevent accidental lockout.
- list_pppoe_clients: List PPPoE client interfaces on a MikroTik router. Shows name, parent interface, ISP username, and connection status.
- manage_pppoe_client: Add, update, or remove a PPPoE client interface. Idempotent by name (already_exists on matching name+interface+user; CONFLICT on differing config; no_change when an update differs in nothing). Password is always written when provided since RouterOS does not return it on GET.

- manage_ovpn_client: Add, update, or remove an OpenVPN client interface. Idempotent by name (already_exists on matching name+connectTo; CONFLICT on differing connectTo; no_change when an update differs in nothing). Password is always written when provided since RouterOS does not return it on GET.
- get_ovpn_server: Get the OpenVPN server configuration on a MikroTik router. Throws NOT_FOUND if the OpenVPN package is not installed.
- manage_ovpn_server: Enable, disable, or configure the OpenVPN server (a per-router singleton). Throws NOT_FOUND if the OpenVPN package is not installed. The set action requires at least one configuration field.
- list_ppp_profiles: List PPP profiles including the built-in default and default-encryption profiles.
- manage_ppp_profile: Add, update, or remove a PPP profile. Idempotent by name. update returns no_change when requested values match. Built-in profiles (default, default-encryption) cannot be removed — RouterOS blocks this and the error is surfaced.
- get_upgrade_status: Read the current RouterOS package upgrade status and routerboard firmware versions. Shows installed version, latest available version, update channel, and firmware upgrade availability.
- manage_upgrade: Trigger a RouterOS package update check or install. 'check' queries the update server for new packages. 'install' downloads and applies the update — the router will reboot automatically. Supports dry-run.
- create_backup: Create a binary configuration backup on a MikroTik router. The backup is saved as <name>.backup on the router's filesystem. Supports optional encryption via password and dry-run mode.
- export_config: Export the router configuration as a RouterOS script. When no file is specified, returns the script text inline. When a file is specified, saves it as <file>.rsc on the router's filesystem. Supports compact mode to show only non-default values.
- list_log_rules: List RouterOS logging rules (system/logging) with optional topic substring and action exact-match filtering.
- manage_log_rule: Add, remove, enable, or disable a RouterOS logging rule. Idempotent by topics+logAction (add → already_exists on match; remove → not_found handled gracefully; enable/disable throw NOT_FOUND when absent). Supports dry-run.
- list_log_actions: List RouterOS logging action targets (system/logging/action) with optional type filter.
- manage_log_action: Add or remove a RouterOS logging action target. Idempotent by name. add throws VALIDATION if type is missing; returns already_exists if name found. remove returns not_found gracefully. Supports dry-run.
- bandwidth_test: Run a RouterOS bandwidth test from the router to a remote host running a RouterOS btest server. Returns TX and RX throughput in Mbps. Duration capped at 20 seconds. Saturates the link — not auto-retried.
- fetch_url: Send an HTTP/HTTPS request from the router using /tool/fetch. Response body is returned inline (capped at 64 KB with [TRUNCATED] marker). Use outputFile to save to router filesystem instead. Not read-only: POSTs have side effects and outputFile writes to the router.
- list_connections: List active connection tracking entries from the router firewall table. Filters are applied client-side. Useful for diagnosing NAT and firewall behavior.
- get_container_config: Read global container configuration: registry URL, RAM high-water mark, and veth interface.
- manage_container_config: Update global container settings. Idempotent: returns no_change if nothing differs.
- list_container_envs: List container environment variable entries, optionally filtered by container name.
- manage_container_env: Add or remove a container environment variable. Idempotent by name+key. add returns already_exists if the entry exists with the same value; throws CONFLICT if the value differs.
- list_container_mounts: List container volume mount definitions with source path, destination path, and mount name.
- manage_container_mount: Add or remove a container volume mount. Idempotent by name: add returns already_exists if the mount exists with matching src/dst; throws CONFLICT if name exists with different paths.
- list_interface_lists: List all interface lists defined on the router.
- manage_interface_list: Add or remove an interface list. Idempotent by name. Removing a list that has members is blocked by RouterOS — the error is surfaced as-is.
- manage_interface_list_member: Add or remove an interface from an interface list. Idempotent by list+interface composite key. add returns already_exists if the membership exists. remove returns not_found gracefully.
- list_swos_endpoints: List the SwOS/SwOS Lite '.b' API endpoints supported by this server, with the decoded field names per endpoint. Read-only schema introspection — no device call.
- get_swos_status: Retrieve status from a MikroTik SwOS switch (SwOS or SwOS Lite): identity, model, firmware, uptime, per-port link state/speed/duplex, PoE mode/state/power, and SFP modules.
- get_swos_endpoint: Fetch and decode a single SwOS '.b' endpoint (link.b, sys.b, poe.b, lacp.b, rstp.b, snmp.b, fwd.b, vlan.b, stats.b, sfp.b, host.b, acl.b, ...) as structured data. Unknown keys are preserved under '_raw'.
- write_swos_blob: Mutate a SwOS '.b' endpoint on a MikroTik switch. The full endpoint blob is read, the given fields are merged in, and the entire blob is written back (the firmware only accepts whole-blob writes); untouched fields are re-sent byte-for-byte, and a field this firmware does not expose is refused rather than injected. dryRun defaults to true — preview first. Every result reports whether the schema has been verified against the switch's firmware. The pre-write blob is snapshotted, so the change can be undone with rollback_change. Returns no_change when the values already match.
- plan_changes: Preview a sequence of write operations: each step runs with dryRun=true against live state, returning affected paths and the predicted action per step. Use apply_plan to execute the same steps for real.
- apply_plan: Execute write operations in order, stopping on first failure. Each step is snapshotted and journaled individually. Non-admin identities need a confirmationToken (same two-step flow as other destructive tools). Undo individual steps via rollback_change with the returned journal IDs.
- rollback_change: Restore device state to before a write, identified by its journal ID. RouterOS: reads the before-snapshot, diffs against live state, and applies the reverse. SwOS: re-POSTs the exact pre-write '.b' blob. Use dryRun=true to preview. Requires MIKROMCP_DATA_DIR (defaults to data/).
- check_router_health: Probe a device: RouterOS routers via system/resource, SwOS switches via sys.b. Returns health status, firmware version, uptime, and (RouterOS only) CPU load and memory info. Unlike other tools, this never throws — unreachable devices are reported as healthy=false.
- bulk_execute: Fan out a single-router tool to many routers in parallel (up to concurrency), targeted by routerIds or tag. Destructive tools need two-step confirmation: call without confirmationToken to get a fleet token (needs MIKROMCP_CONFIRMATION_SECRET), then re-call with it. Writes snapshot+journal each router for rollback. Returns per-router results with succeeded/failed counts.
- list_routers: List the routers configured in the registry (routers.yaml): id, host, port, TLS status, tags, ROS version, and which is the default. Read-only reflection of local config — no RouterOS API call, no credentials in the response. Use it to discover valid routerId values and tags for targeting other tools (including bulk_execute).
