## Connectors

| Export                                              | Type     | Description                                                                                                                                                                                       |
| --------------------------------------------------- | -------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `connector(name, resource, data, options?)`         | Function | Direct invocation. `name` resolves to an instance slug first, then falls back to a **template slug** when the template has `authRequired = false` (e.g. JSONPlaceholder, public OpenAPI imports). |
| `createConnectorTool({ connector, resource, ... })` | Function | Wrap a connector as an agent tool. Same instance-then-template resolution.                                                                                                                        |
| `loadConnector(slug)`                               | Function | Force-preload a connector schema before first call.                                                                                                                                               |

See [Connectors → Public APIs](/core-concepts/connectors#public-apis-call-a-template-directly-no-instance) for the no-auth template shortcut.

## Schedule

| Export                        | Type     | Description                        |
| ----------------------------- | -------- | ---------------------------------- |
| `schedule.create(config)`     | Function | Create a scheduled execution       |
| `schedule.list()`             | Function | List active schedules              |
