search_gigsGigs HAPPENING across the UK — the public listings directory of shows to go and see (mostly imported, already booked).
Inferred read-onlysearch_open_gigsMember-posted gigs that are OPEN FOR APPLICATIONS — real venues/promoters looking to book an act, future dates only.
Inferred read-onlysearch_available_performersGigXchange artists and bands open to a booking on a specific date.
Inferred read-onlysearch_open_micsRecurring UK open mic nights in a city, with day/frequency, signup method, backline and fee.
Inferred read-onlysearch_venuesThe public directory of UK grassroots live-music venues in a city (listings, no booking): capacity, backline, PA, engineer and genres booked.
Inferred read-onlysearch_available_venuesGigXchange MEMBER venues open to receiving a gig request on a specific date (free-by-default: open unless the venue marked that date).
Inferred read-onlyget_index_summaryOverview of the GigXchange Index (GX Index), the UK live-music pay index: headline counts, the cities it covers, every published monthly issue (slug, title, url), the latest issue's open datasets (HuggingFace, Kaggle, Zenodo DOI) and the city average-fee league behind the Pint Index.
Potential side effectsget_ratesWhat UK acts typically get paid, from the GigXchange Index: median and range (25th-90th percentile) by city, gig type and act size, with sample size and an honest label when a figure is regional, UK-wide or modelled.
Inferred read-onlyget_platform_statsLive counts across GigXchange: members by type, venues, open mics, cities, and upcoming gigs listed in the directory (concerts to see, not work to apply for - use search_open_gigs for that).
Inferred read-onlyget_profilePublic profile for a GigXchange member by URL slug (display name, bio, genres, location, ratings).
Inferred read-onlyget_epkPublic electronic press kit for an artist by URL slug (summary, genres, rating, media counts).
Inferred read-onlyget_open_micFull detail for a single open mic night — schedule, signup, slot length, backline, address.
Inferred read-onlyget_venueFull detail for a single grassroots venue — capacity, PA, backline, genres booked, curfew, address.
Inferred read-onlyget_eventPublic detail for an event hosted on GigXchange by URL slug — date, venue, ticketing, organiser.
Inferred read-onlylist_member_spotlightsIndex of published Member Spotlight features — long-form profiles of real GigXchange members.
Inferred read-onlyget_member_spotlightFull editorial text of one Member Spotlight issue by slug, plus a link to the member profile it features.
Inferred read-onlymy_profileThe signed-in member's own profile: name, type, bio, location, verification, rating.
Inferred read-onlymy_bookingsThe member's own bookings from 30 days ago onwards — status, date, venue/event, agreed fee, and which side they are on.
Inferred read-onlymy_invoicesStatus and amounts of the member's invoices, both directions — each row carries direction: "sent" (issued by the member) or "received" (billed to them).
Inferred read-onlylist_help_topicsThe full map of GigXchange's official help centre — every category and the questions it answers.
Inferred read-onlysearch_helpSearch GigXchange's OFFICIAL help articles — the platform's own documentation of how it works (payments, bookings, profiles, messages, account, what to do when something goes wrong).
Inferred read-onlyget_help_articleThe full text of one official GigXchange help article, by slug from a search_help result.
Inferred read-onlycheck_member_availabilityWhether ONE named member (artist or venue, by profile id from search/get_profile) is free on a specific date.
Inferred read-onlyset_my_availabilitySet a date on the member's own GigXchange calendar: unavailable, soft_hold (pencilled), or available (clears the manual entry).
Inferred read-onlytoggle_my_favouriteToggle a GigXchange profile (by slug) in the member's favourites list.
Inferred read-onlymark_my_notifications_readMark all of the member's GigXchange notifications as read.
Inferred read-onlyset_my_fee_rangeUpdate the member's own public fee range (GBP, min and max) shown on their profile — the same field as the app's profile editor.
Potential side effectsrespond_to_bookingAccept or decline a booking offer the member RECEIVED (never one they sent).
Inferred read-onlycounter_bookingPropose a different fee on a pending booking offer (posts an amended offer card in chat, retiring the old one).
Inferred read-onlymake_offerSend a booking offer to another GigXchange member — the recipient gets a pending booking, a notification and an offer card in Messages, exactly as if the member had sent it in the app.
Potential side effectsapply_to_gigApply the member to an open gig from search_open_gigs (GigXchange member-posted gigs only).
Inferred read-onlyset_my_bioReplace the member's own public profile bio (plain text, max 1500 chars).
Inferred read-onlysend_chat_messageSend a text message into one of the member's EXISTING GigXchange conversations (no new conversations).
Potential side effectssubmit_my_invoiceSend one of the member's own DRAFT settle-privately invoices to its GigXchange recipient (notifies them + posts the invoice card in chat).
