## What it does

The server gives local coding assistants an output layer for operations models cannot perform directly. Instead of cluttering the prompt with dozens of endpoints, it starts lean with five core tools. The model locates actions via `find_tool`, runs tasks through `run_operation`, or activates specific tools with `enable_tools`. It keeps context overhead minimal. Over 40 file operations are supported, including HTML-to-PDF rendering, Office conversion, and C2PA credentials.

Inputs come from local disk paths, while outputs land in a specified directory or a system temp folder. Node 18+ is required to execute the package via `npx`. The service includes 100 complimentary operations, after which each successful action costs $0.01.

## Requirements
- Needs: Node.js (commands run via npx)
- Environment variables: `BIGAPI_KEY` — keys and tokens: ask the human for the values, never commit them or put them in shared files.
