Full description
Details
List existing research projects. Call this at the START of a session to find what the user was working on, especially when resuming ("pick up where I left off").
Typical flow — call this first to get the project_id, then project_get_scratchpad(parent_id=<project_id>) to read prior notes. If no project matches, call project_create to start a fresh one.
Args
compact— if true, omits per-strategy details for a faster overview
Each entry has id/name/description/strategy_count and updated_at (most-recently-updated is a good heuristic for "what was I working on").
Capabilities
Bounded options and operating modes surfaced above the full JSON schema.
No bounded capability options are declared for this tool.
Required Inputs
None.
Optional Inputs
FieldTypeDescription
compactbooleanReturn only project name, ID, and scratchpad. Omits assets, strategies_by_stage, event_type_ids, and strategy_count (always 0 in compact mode). Use when you only need to know what projects exist — call project_get for counts.
