Audit Service Health Status

The `check_api_status` tool confirms if the UUID Generator service is running. It runs a quick check and reports back a simple operational status code. You can verify connectivity before your agent tries to generate IDs, saving time when working with local databases or dev servers.

Generate Unique Identifiers

Use `generate_uuids` to create one or more unique identifiers (UUIDs). The tool handles the generation of properly versioned and formatted IDs. This lets you populate records in your local file system with guaranteed non-duplicate keys, whether you're writing a script or testing data schemas.

Local ID Testing

When developing locally, the `generate_uuids` tool gives you fresh UUIDs without needing to hit an external endpoint. It keeps your workflow contained on localhost. This is perfect for testing how your application handles unique keys when you don't want outside services polluting your test data.
