List Clipforms

clipform_list_forms
Read-onlyIdempotent

List forms in your workspace with optional filtering. Returns paginated results (cursor-based). next_cursor is included when more results exist. To find or open a form by name, pass search with part of its title instead of paging through results. Needs a signed-in Clipform account (an anonymous session is asked to sign in).

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
tagNoFilter by tag name(s), comma-separated. AND logic: only forms with ALL tags are returned.
sortNoSort field (default: created_at)
limitNoNumber of forms to return (default 25, max 100)
orderNoSort order (default: desc, newest first)
cursorNoPagination cursor from previous response's next_cursor
searchNoFilter to forms whose title contains this text (case-insensitive substring). Use this to resolve a form by name in one call instead of paginating.
contextYesDescribe the user's underlying goal in one sentence - not the tool you're calling.
publishedNoFilter by publish status
workspace_idNoWorkspace to act in (id from clipform_whoami workspaces). Omit to use the connection's default workspace.

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
formsYesMatching forms (empty if none)
next_cursorYesPass as cursor to fetch the next page, or null when no more

TDQS

A3.9/5.0
Behavior4/5

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

Annotations already cover read-only/idempotent/non-destructive, and the description adds genuinely new behavior: cursor-based pagination, next_cursor presence, and an authentication prerequisite. It does not cover rate limits or result size, but the added context is substantive.

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

Conciseness4/5

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

Four tight sentences with the core action front-loaded, followed by pagination and the search shortcut. Slight overlap between the pagination sentence and the schema's cursor description, but no real waste.

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

Completeness4/5

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

With an output schema present, the description needn't explain return fields, and it sensibly limits itself to pagination mechanics and auth requirements. Coverage is adequate for a filtered-list tool with 9 documented parameters.

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% with rich per-parameter descriptions (tags AND logic, defaults, cursor source, search semantics), so the schema carries the parameter burden. The description echoes the search/cursor behavior rather than adding syntax or constraints beyond it.

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 ('List forms in your workspace') plus scope ('optional filtering'), which is clearly distinct from the sibling clipform_get_form. It does not, however, explicitly name that sibling or otherwise route the agent between list and single-retrieve.

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

Usage Guidelines4/5

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

Gives real usage direction: use search with part of a title instead of paging, and notes the signed-in-account requirement (anonymous sessions are asked to sign in). It stops short of stating when to prefer clipform_get_form over this list tool.

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