Create a company candidate
well_create_company_candidateMint a company candidate from a registry hit, the step between finding the company and creating its workspace. This is the deliberate pick the confirm-your-company card makes.
REQUIRED: registry_ref — the id of a well_search_company_registry hit. This tool hydrates that hit and mints the company as a primary (own-company) candidate. Then call well_create_company_workspace with the returned candidate_id to make it the company workspace.
Only a workspace owner or admin may mint a candidate. A caller without that role is refused, not silently ignored. When the picked company already has a confirmed company workspace, the result carries linked_to_existing_child: true and its workspace_id — switch into it with well_switch_workspace instead of creating another. Confirm the exact company with the user before calling; never pick one from a name alone.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| registry_ref | Yes | The registry ref an earlier well_search_company_registry hit carried as its `id`. | |
| workspace_id | No | Target workspace. Omit when the token authorizes one workspace. Required when it authorizes several — a write lands in exactly one workspace and this call would not say which. | |
| conversation_id | No | The conversation id returned by the previous Well result, in its meta under well/conversation_id, in its structuredContent, or in its JSON text block. Pass it back on every call in the same conversation, including a call a card makes, so the chosen workspace and the earlier answers still apply. It decides the conversation on its own: nothing the host states about the session replaces it. Omit it only on the first call of a conversation. | |
| idempotency_key | No | Optional client-supplied key. A retried write with the same key returns the original result instead of re-applying the operation. | |
| workspace_scope | No | Restrict this call to the family: the token's primary workspace plus the company workspaces under it that you are a member of. Unrelated authorized workspaces drop out of the read; row reads merge across the family, while a per-workspace figure still reports exactly one workspace. |
Output Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| error | No | ||
| success | Yes | ||
| candidate | Yes | The minted candidate, projected as well_get_own_company shows a candidate; null when linked to an existing child. | |
| workspace_id | Yes | The existing company workspace when linked_to_existing_child is true; null otherwise. | |
| conversation_id | No | The conversation this result belongs to. Pass it back as the conversation_id argument on every later Well call in the same conversation. | |
| newly_connected | No | Tools that connected to this workspace since the last result and that no session was told about yet, oldest first. Present only when at least one tool is new. The connected-line rule says when to tell an entry; when it does, one line per entry, in the person's language: "<name> is connected.". Never fold several entries into one sentence. Each entry comes back once, on one result only: never repeat its line later. | |
| conversation_id_note | No | Present only when the server opened a fresh lane, stating that no choice recorded earlier was read. | |
| conversation_id_source | No | Where the conversation id came from: the host's own request meta, the caller's argument, or a fresh lane the server opened. | |
| linked_to_existing_child | Yes | True when the picked company already has a confirmed company workspace; its id is in workspace_id. |
