Tools

Every tool the Docshark MCP server offers, with its area, whether it reads or changes, who can use it and what it does.

An app sees only the tools your role opens and your connection allows. A tool marked Change is marked as a change in the tool list (destructiveHint), so apps that support it ask you before running it. A tool marked Read is marked read only (readOnlyHint) and never changes anything.

Every tool runs as you, in the connection's workspace. The workspace is never an input: an app cannot point a tool at another workspace.

Results

Results are JSON. Dates are ISO 8601 in UTC.
A result longer than 60,000 characters is cut short with a note. Ask for fewer items or a narrower filter.
Lists default to 20 items and take at most 50.
When a tool cannot do what was asked, it returns a plain sentence marked as an error, such as "Envelope not found". It never returns internal details.

Who can use it

"Who can use it" names the Docshark permission that opens the tool. Owners and admins hold every permission. Other roles get what the workspace's roles grant under Settings → Team. Your connection can narrow this further but never widen it; see Access.
