List People

list-people-tool
Read-onlyIdempotent

List people (contacts) in the CRM with optional filters and pagination.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
pageNoPage number (max 1,000,000).
sortNoSort by field. Properties: field (string), direction (asc|desc).
filterNoAn object of conditions. Keys starting with $ are keywords: operators ($eq, $contains, $is_empty, $gt, $gte, $lt, $lte, $has_any, $has_none, $in, $not_in) and logic ($and and $or take a list of condition objects, $not takes one and also returns records where the inner fields are empty). Other keys are names. A filter holds at most 20 conditions, 3 levels of $and, $or and $not, and 2 levels of relations. A list holds at most 100 values. Email values match in any letter case. Phone values match in any format, and the operand needs a country code such as +1 415 555 0100. Link values match in any letter case, with or without the scheme. Domain values match as a bare host or a full URL, with or without www. Tags-input values match the exact stored value. Date-time values match a date without a time, such as 2026-10-01, as that whole day. Email and link fields also take a domain sub-field with $in or $not_in, such as {"domain":{"$in":["acme.com"]}}, which matches the host of each value. $not_in and $has_none also match records where the field is empty. $is_empty takes true or false. Native fields: name, created_at, updated_at, creation_source. Relations take $in, $not_in or $is_empty on record ids, or conditions on the related record that use that record type's own filter names, including custom_fields. Prefer conditions over listing the related records first and passing their ids: company (company). Member relations take $in, $not_in or $is_empty on workspace member ids only, with no nested conditions: creator. custom_fields takes an object keyed by custom field code, each value an operator object. Native fields and relations sit at the top level of filter. get-crm-schema-tool lists those codes with their type and options under filterable_fields.custom_fields, and the operators, matching rule and example of each type under filterable_fields.types. Example: {"name":{"$contains":"Acme"},"$or":[{"creation_source":{"$eq":"api"}},{"created_at":{"$gte":"2026-01-01"}}]}.
includeNoSingular relationships or relationship counts to expand. Use a show tool for to-many records.
per_pageNoResults per page (default 15, max 25).

TDQS

B3.1/5.0
Behavior2/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint=true, idempotentHint=true, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint=false. The description adds no behavioral context beyond those annotations, such as permissions, rate limits, pagination details, or edge cases, and it does not contradict them.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness5/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

It is a single front-loaded sentence with no wasted words. The size is appropriate given that the schema and output schema carry the detailed information.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness3/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

The output schema covers return values and annotations cover safety behavior, while the schema richly documents parameters. However, the description omits routing guidance among the many list/search/get siblings, leaving a meaningful gap for a minimal list tool.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema description coverage is 100%, so all five parameters, including the complex filter object, are already documented. The description only repeats 'optional filters and pagination' and adds no extra meaning or syntax beyond the schema, making the baseline 3 appropriate.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

Names a concrete verb ('List') and resource ('people/contacts in the CRM') and states that filtering and pagination are supported. It does not explicitly differentiate this tool from sibling list tools or get-people-tool, so it stops short of 5.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines2/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The description gives no when-to-use or when-not-to-use guidance, and it names no alternatives such as search, get-people-tool, or list-companies-tool. It only implies that this tool is used for listing people.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
