# Get Automation Run

Use the Speak AI MCP server tool `get_automation_run` to get one automation run in
full: every step, in dependency order, with what it produced and why it stopped.

## What does it do?

Get one automation run in full: every step, in dependency order, with what it
produced and why it stopped. Use this after `test_automation` or to explain a run
that went the wrong way. On a branched automation the run's overall status is not
the whole story (a filter that stops one leg marks the entire run "killed" even when
the other leg finished its work) so read the per-step summary this returns, not just
the status.

## Parameters

`get_automation_run` takes 2 parameters, all of them required.

| Name | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `automationId` | string | Yes | Unique identifier of the automation |
| `runId` | string | Yes | Run id, from `get_automation_runs` or `test_automation` |

## Behaviour

The Speak AI MCP server publishes these behaviour hints for `get_automation_run`.

- Only reads data. Does not modify your workspace.
- Does not delete or overwrite existing data.
- Repeating an identical call is safe.
- Stays inside Speak AI. Does not reach other systems.
