usesignal_generate_formread-onlyGenerate an editable form from a JSON object. Returns nested field paths, JSON Schema, HTML, React JSX and config exports. Arrays and nulls use JSON textareas. Values are processed in memory; avoid secrets. To show an interactive preview, call usesignal_open_workbench with this result input.
Parameters:
json(required) — stringtitle— stringoverrides— array
Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no
usesignal_generate_colorsread-onlyGenerate light and dark semantic color tokens from a six-digit hex brand color. Returns a shade scale, measured text contrast checks and CSS, JSON and Tailwind exports. This measures listed color pairs only, not whole-page accessibility. Call usesignal_open_workbench with the result input to preview.
Parameters:
baseColor(required) — string
Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no
usesignal_test_regexread-onlyExecute a JavaScript regular expression against text and expected match/non-match test cases. Returns indexed matches and capture groups. Flags use JavaScript semantics. Execution times out after 500ms. Call usesignal_open_workbench with result input to highlight matches.
Parameters:
pattern(required) — stringtext(required) — stringflags— stringtests— array
Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no
usesignal_generate_qrread-onlyGenerate a scannable QR code for a link, text, Wi-Fi network, contact card (vCard), email, SMS, phone number, WhatsApp chat or UPI payment. Returns the encoded payload, an SVG file and a PNG preview image. values by type: url{url}; text{text}; wifi{ssid,password,security:WPA|WEP|nopass,hidden}; vcard{firstName,lastName,phone,email,org,title,website,address}; email{to,subject,body}; sms{phone,message}; phone{phone}; whatsapp{phone,message}; upi{vpa,name,amount,note}.
Parameters:
type(required) — stringvalues(required) — objectdark— stringlightmargin— integermoduleStyle— stringerrorCorrection— string
Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no
usesignal_encode_decoderead-onlyExact text transforms: Base64 encode/decode (UTF-8), URL encode/decode, decode a JWT header and payload with readable exp/iat/nbf dates (the signature is not verified), or hash text with MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256 and SHA-512. Use this instead of computing hashes or Base64 by hand.
Parameters:
operation(required) — stringtext(required) — string
Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no
usesignal_explain_cronread-onlyExplain a standard 5-field cron expression (minute hour day-of-month month day-of-week) in plain English and list its next run times in a given time zone, handling daylight saving time.
Parameters:
expression(required) — stringcount— integertimeZone— string — IANA time zone, e.g. Asia/Kolkata or America/New_York
Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no
usesignal_convert_timestampread-onlyConvert a Unix timestamp (seconds or milliseconds) or an ISO 8601 date into ISO, UTC, epoch seconds/milliseconds, a relative time and the local time in a given time zone.
Parameters:

Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no
usesignal_diff_jsonread-onlyCompare two JSON documents structurally and list every added, removed and changed value with its JSONPath. Numbers compare exactly. Arrays match by content by default, so an inserted item shows as one addition; use arrays:"position" to compare index by index.
Parameters:
left(required) — stringright(required) — stringarrays— string
Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no
usesignal_format_jsonread-onlyValidate, pretty-print or minify JSON, optionally sorting keys. Invalid JSON reports the exact line and column; with repair (default on) it fixes common problems such as trailing commas, single quotes, comments and unquoted keys, and lists each fix.
Parameters:
json(required) — stringmode— stringindent— stringrepair— booleansortKeys— boolean
Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no
usesignal_placeholder_imageread-onlyCreate a placeholder image URL (served by usesignal.dev) plus HTML, Markdown and CSS snippets, for mockups, prototypes, seed data and layouts. Width and height up to 4000 px.
Parameters:
width(required) — integerheight(required) — integertext— stringcolorstyle— stringradius— integerpattern— stringbackground— string
Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no
usesignal_flowchartread-onlyTurn JavaScript/TypeScript code, arrow steps or Mermaid-style arrows into a flowchart, returned as Mermaid source and an SVG diagram. Steps mode uses one flow per line: "Start -> Validate -> Save" and branches like "Validate -- No --> Show error".
Parameters:
mode(required) — stringinput(required) — stringdirection— string
Hints: read-only yes · destructive no · idempotent yes · open-world no
