backups

List an App's Backups, newest first, to choose one to restore.

The tool of basemodo backups, on the local MCP and the remote one. It only reads, so an agent's client may run it without asking you.

Basemodo's daily ones (kind daily) and, on Pro and Workspace, its hourly ones (hourly, kept 24 hours), those taken with basemodo backup (manual), and a deleted App's last one (final), each until it expires; together at most ten times the App's disk (cap_bytes), the oldest going first. An App that has not run since its newest Backup gets no new one and keeps that one past its expiry until its next (kept_as_newest).

Arguments

  • app (text): The App whose Backups to list. Default: the one named after the current folder.

On the remote MCP

  • app is required on the remote MCP, which has no folder of yours to find the App from.

Answer

It answers {"backups": [{"id", "app", "kind", "size_bytes", "created_at", "expires_at", "kept_as_newest"}], "retention_days", "hourly_backups", "cap_bytes"}.
