Clarity — 143 Operations for AI Agents

This page is the canonical reference an AI coding agent uses to refactor, query, and analyze Clarity code through the act MCP server. 143 operations available: 69 refactor, 18 query, 42 analysis, 14 verification. Each operation is callable from Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, OpenCode, or any MCP-compatible agent host. Click any operation for a stable anchor link suitable for citation.

Refactor

Operation	Description

`convert-integer-to-uint`	Convert signed int to unsigned uint
`convert-is-ok-to-match`	Convert is-ok check to match
`convert-is-some-to-match`	Convert is-some check to match
`convert-match-to-if`	Convert match to if when simple
`convert-ok-unwrap-to-try`	Replace unwrap! pattern with try! macro
`convert-ok-value-to-response`	Wrap value in (ok ...) for response type
`convert-string-to-ascii`	Convert string-utf8 literal to string-ascii
`convert-unwrap-err-panic-to-match`	Replace unwrap-err-panic with match
`convert-unwrap-panic-to-unwrap`	Replace unwrap-panic with unwrap!
`demote-to-private-function`	Change public function to private
`extract-access-control-guard`	Extract repeated asserts into private function
`extract-constant`	Extract literal into named constant
`extract-filter-predicate`	Extract filter predicate into function
`extract-let-binding`	Extract an expression into a let binding
`extract-private-function`	Extract code block into private function
`extract-read-only-function`	Extract pure code into read-only function
`extract_function`	Extract a code selection into a new function — automatically infers parameters, return types, and inserts the call site. Use instead of manually cutting/pasting code. Works without LSP; LSP improves type inference. Params: file (string), new_name (string), start_line (u32), start_column (u32), end_line (u32), end_column (u32) [, preview (bool), receipt (bool)]
`extract_variable`	Extract an expression into a named variable — inserts the declaration and replaces the expression with the variable name. Works without LSP. Params: file (string), new_name (string), start_line (u32), start_column (u32), end_line (u32), end_column (u32) [, preview (bool)]
`generate-access-control-map`	Generate access control map with helpers
`generate-clarity-doc-comment`	Generate documentation comment
`generate-contract-call-wrapper`	Generate contract-call wrapper function
`generate-define-constant`	Generate define-constant declaration
`generate-define-data-var`	Generate define-data-var declaration
`generate-define-fungible-token`	Generate define-fungible-token declaration
`generate-define-map`	Generate define-map declaration
`generate-define-non-fungible-token`	Generate define-non-fungible-token declaration
`generate-define-private-stub`	Generate private function stub
`generate-define-public-stub`	Generate public function stub
`generate-define-read-only-stub`	Generate read-only function stub
`generate-error-constants`	Generate block of error constant definitions
`generate-ft-mint-public`	Generate public FT mint function
`generate-ft-token-scaffold`	Generate full SIP-010 FT token scaffold
`generate-impl-trait`	Generate impl-trait declaration
`generate-nft-collection-scaffold`	Generate full SIP-009 NFT collection scaffold
`generate-nft-mint-public`	Generate public NFT mint function
`generate-owner-only-guard`	Generate owner constant and guard function
`generate-sip009-get-owner`	Generate SIP-009 get-owner function
`generate-sip009-transfer`	Generate SIP-009 transfer function
`generate-sip010-get-balance`	Generate SIP-010 get-balance function
`generate-sip010-get-total-supply`	Generate SIP-010 get-total-supply function
`generate-sip010-transfer`	Generate SIP-010 transfer function
`generate-stx-transfer-public`	Generate public STX transfer function
`generate-trait-definition`	Generate trait definition skeleton
`generate-use-trait`	Generate use-trait import
`inline`	Inline a variable, function, or method — replace every usage with its definition body, then remove the original. The inverse of extract. Works without LSP (single-file); LSP enables cross-file inlining. Params: file (string), symbol (string) [, line (u32), preview (bool), receipt (bool)]
`inline-constant`	Replace constant with its value
`inline-let-binding`	Inline a let binding into all uses
`insert_body`	Replace a function's implementation body with new code. AST-validated — rejects if the result has parse errors, so you can't accidentally break syntax. Use instead of manual text editing for function rewrites. Params: file (string), symbol (string), code (string) [, commit (bool)]
`invert-boolean-condition`	Negate if condition and swap branches
`move_symbol`	Move a function, class, or type to a different file and automatically update all imports across the codebase. Use instead of manually cut/paste + fixing imports. Works without LSP (single-file); LSP enables cross-file import updates. Params: file (string), symbol (string), destination (string) [, preview (bool), receipt (bool)]
`normalize-error-constants`	Replace inline error literals with named constants
`promote-to-public-function`	Change private function to public
`recipe_run`	Run a codemod recipe: declarative match → transform → optional verify across modeled grammars. Preview lists matches; apply writes with optional E7 receipts and all-or-nothing rollback. Returns a per-site report.
`rename`	Rename a symbol and automatically update ALL references across the codebase. Safer and faster than find-and-replace — AST-aware, won't rename strings or comments. Works without LSP (single-file); LSP enables cross-file renames. Params: file (string), old_name (string), new_name (string) [, line (u32), column (u32), preview (bool), receipt (bool)]
`rename-identifier`	Rename an identifier across all references
`rename-map-key-tuple-field`	Rename field in map tuple definition and usages
`reorder-function-parameters`	Reorder parameters of a function
`rewrite-fold-as-map`	Convert fold to map when appropriate
`rewrite-map-as-fold`	Convert map to fold when needed
`simplify-boolean-expression`	Simplify boolean expressions (double negation, constants)
`unwrap-option-to-default`	Replace default-to with direct expression
