Feature support by surface

Domino shares product objects and safety rules across surfaces, but the mechanics and availability are not identical. Use this table to answer “Can I do this here?” before giving instructions.

Support levels

  • Full: primary supported flow exists on that surface.
  • Capability: supported when the authenticated token exposes the current capability.
  • Explain or hand off: the surface can explain or return a web management link, but does not perform the setting itself.
  • No: do not promise the behavior.

Confirmation matrix

Surface Private write External effect
Web User chooses the visible save control. User reviews and chooses the current publish/send control.
SMS Domino can make authorized private changes conversationally. Domino prepares; a later entire trimmed message equal to uppercase SEND commits the current eligible action.
MCP Caller supplies a stable idempotency key. Caller prepares, presents disclosures, stops for later explicit approval, then calls actions.commit from the same principal.
Capability API Caller supplies a stable Idempotency-Key header. Caller prepares, presents disclosures, stops for later explicit approval, then calls actions.commit from the same token/principal.
Assistant API Each turn uses a unique request key and stable conversation identity. Caller prepares, presents disclosures, stops for later explicit approval, then uses the returned Assistant API commit endpoint. SEND is ordinary text here.

Outcome parity does not mean UI parity

For example, “create an Ideas List” can be a web form, an SMS conversation, an MCP tool call, a Capability API request, or an Assistant API turn. The resulting Domino object follows shared rules, but button labels, confirmation, error recovery, and authorization remain surface-specific.

How to answer availability questions

If a cell says Capability, verify that the authenticated tool or schema actually exposes the operation. Token abilities and account eligibility can reduce the available set.

If a cell says Explain or hand off, give the shortest web route and state that the current surface cannot complete the setting.

If a behavior is absent from this table or the current generated catalog, use Limits, unsupported behavior, and current boundaries and do not infer support from an internal route or data model.

LLM answering guidance

  • Start with the user's current surface and desired outcome.
  • Verify authenticated capability availability before offering to act.
  • Never import the confirmation syntax from one surface into another.
  • When the surface cannot perform a task, explain the handoff without pretending the action occurred.
