Zambo AI Tools

Continuity List Threads

continuity_list_threads

Read-onlyIdempotent

Lists named threads owned by the supplied job ID. Thread IDs can be used as _session_id by another AI client.

Input Schema

Name	Required	Description	Default
`_ref`	No	Optional handover referral ID from your install link.
`_zambo_key`	No	Optional opaque Zambo access capability. Never place it in a URL or public log.
`session_id`	No	Alias for _session_id.
`_session_id`	No	Optional stable bot-job ID. Reuse it across calls to bind a Day Pass and keep the job ledger together.
`_caller_label`	No	Optional caller label recorded as a caller-reported claim in the receipt.	zambo-starter
`_caller_handle`	No	Opaque anonymous continuity handle returned during initialize. Reuse it across MCP sessions; it is not payment authorization.
`_continuity_ai_label`	No	Optional self-reported AI client label for the private continuity timeline. Zambo does not independently verify the client.

TDQS

A3.5/5.0

Behavior3/5

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

Annotations already declare readOnlyHint, idempotentHint, destructiveHint=false, and openWorldHint, so the safety profile is covered. The description adds the useful downstream note that returned thread IDs are valid as _session_id for another client, but says nothing about scope when parameters are omitted or about auth/capability requirements.

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?

Two short sentences, the core operation front-loaded and the downstream value second. There is no filler or restatement of the title.

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?

An output schema exists and annotations cover safety, so return values need not be explained. The remaining gap is meaningful: the description says threads are 'owned by the supplied job ID' while all 7 parameters are optional, leaving the agent unsure what the listing scope is when no job ID is passed, or whether results are paginated.

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 coverage is 100%, so every one of the 7 parameters is documented in the schema, which sets the baseline at 3. The description reinforces the relationship between the 'job ID' and the thread IDs used as _session_id, but it does not clarify the session_id/_session_id alias or the role of the optional caller/capability parameters.

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?

States a specific verb and resource ('Lists named threads') plus the ownership scope ('owned by the supplied job ID'), so the operation is unambiguous. It does not differentiate itself from adjacent siblings such as continuity_get_recent, continuity_start_thread, or continuity_open_thread, which is what keeps it from a 5.

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

Usage Guidelines3/5

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

The second sentence implies the intended workflow — retrieve thread IDs, then use them as _session_id from another AI client — which is real usage context. However, it never says when to call this versus continuity_get_recent or continuity_start_thread, and it never states what happens when no job ID is supplied.

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