# contacts_search

Search this account's contacts. Returns one page; repeat with the next page to continue.

## Execution

Interface: Creators MCP tool at https://mcp.creator.gg/mcp. Do not construct a REST route from the tool name. The connection selects the workspace.

Effect: read-only or navigation handoff; no marketing mutation.

## Behavior and limits

Page starts at 1; pageLimit is at most 100. tags currently returns a Smart Lists handoff, not filtered contact results.

## Example arguments

Illustrative placeholders only. Replace IDs with values from this workspace, resolve sender/content/recipients, recalculate dates, and generate a new requestId for a new action.

```json
{
  "page": 1,
  "pageLimit": 100
}
```

## Input schema

Generated from the current executable Creators contract. Runtime rules in Behavior and limits and the linked guide also apply; JSON Schema alone cannot express all cross-field constraints.

```json
{
  "$schema": "https://json-schema.org/draft/2020-12/schema",
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "query": {
      "type": "string",
      "maxLength": 300
    },
    "page": {
      "default": 1,
      "type": "integer",
      "minimum": 1,
      "maximum": 9007199254740991
    },
    "pageLimit": {
      "default": 20,
      "type": "integer",
      "minimum": 1,
      "maximum": 100
    },
    "tags": {
      "minItems": 1,
      "maxItems": 100,
      "type": "array",
      "items": {
        "type": "string",
        "minLength": 1,
        "maxLength": 100
      }
    }
  },
  "additionalProperties": false
}
```

## Result interpretation

Results use status and message, with operation-specific data and optional link, code, nextAction, and operationId. Data may retain different list/record envelopes. A completed read or accepted send is not proof of delivery/publication. An unknown result must be reconciled. HUMAN_ACTION_REQUIRED returns instructions without performing the action.
