CAPABILITY PROFILE
What the Vestaboard integration exposes
The Vestaboard Agent App exposes 4 provider-backed actions for communication and design & media work. Its current contract lets an authorized agent read the current message displayed by vestaboard cloud api, send a new vestaboard message as plain text or as a two-dimensional character-code grid, and read the current vestaboard transition settings. These operations are called through Working Machines as typed capabilities rather than through browser navigation or copied UI steps.
A connection uses API key. Before execution, the agent can inspect the selected action, its required fields, declared scopes, and expected output contract. Provider credentials remain inside the Working Machines runtime; the calling agent receives the capability and its structured result, not the underlying secret.
For reliable operation, start with the narrowest action that satisfies the task, resolve stable provider identifiers before changing state, and validate the returned object or status after execution. Availability still depends on the connected Vestaboard account, granted provider permissions, workspace policy, region, plan, and upstream API behavior.

PROVIDER-SPECIFIC WORKFLOWS
Jobs this Agent App can support
Inspect Get Current Message
Read the current message displayed by Vestaboard Cloud API. Use this as a bounded discovery step, retain the returned identifier, and avoid expanding the read beyond the task's stated scope.
get_current_messageControl Send Message
Send a new Vestaboard message as plain text or as a two-dimensional character-code grid. Resolve the target first, present material changes for confirmation, and make retries idempotent where the provider supports it.
send_messageVerify with Get Transition
Read the current Vestaboard transition settings. Compare the returned provider state with the intended outcome and preserve stable IDs or canonical links in the run record.
get_transitionSAFETY BOUNDARY
Operate Vestaboard with explicit limits
- Authorize Vestaboard with API key and grant only the provider access required by the selected actions.
- 2 actions are change-capable by name. Confirm the target identity and material parameters before allowing a write.
- Do not infer permission from catalog visibility. Workspace policy, connection identity, and upstream authorization still govern execution.
- No provider scope string is declared on the sampled actions. Verify the connected account's actual permissions in Vestaboard rather than assuming unrestricted access.
- After a call, inspect the structured result and execution record before reporting that the Vestaboard task completed successfully.
CONNECTION MODEL
API key
Vestaboard Cloud API token sent with the X-Vestaboard-Token header. Create it in the API tab of the Vestaboard web app or under Settings / Advanced Settings in the mobile app: https://docs.vestaboard.com/docs/read-write-api/authentication.
Working Machines stores provider credentials behind the execution boundary. An agent can use an authorized connection identity, but catalog discovery alone does not reveal OAuth tokens, API keys, or provider secrets.

EVIDENCE AND AVAILABILITY
Provider reference
Action names, input fields, authentication types, and counts on this page are generated from the Working Machines provider catalog. Provider behavior, quotas, object semantics, account eligibility, and regional availability remain governed by Vestaboard.
