account_context
Check the connected account
Verify the connected account and its readiness before creating or changing lists. Returns account requirements, recovery URLs and what this connection may do. Never ask for a token in chat.
Takes no parameters.
list_my_lists
See my lists
Return the person's own lists (slug, title, status, Inbox flag) and the lists they have access to. Call before add_item when unsure which list to target.
Takes no parameters.
create_list
Create a private list
Create a new private list and return the exact slug to reuse in add_item. Repeating the same request dedupes instead of creating another recent list.
Parameterstitlerequiredcategorysubtitleidempotency_key
Edit a list's title, subtitle, or category. Saves the working version without publishing. Readers keep seeing the last approved version until the owner approves a list update.
Parameterslistrequiredtitlecategorysubtitle
archive_list
Archive a list
Archive one of the person's lists: it leaves their profile, search and readers' view, and its page stops working. Nothing is lost; unarchive_list brings it back. Confirm with the person first.
Parameterslistrequired
unarchive_list
Unarchive a list
Bring an archived list back. It returns as a private list: going live again is a separate publish the person chooses.
Parameterslistrequired
Delete one of the person's lists for good. It disappears for them and for readers and cannot be brought back. Refused for Inbox. Only after the person asks to delete that exact list by name; offer archive_list when they may want it back.
ParameterslistrequiredconfirmTitlerequired
Capture one pick with the person's own note. Omit `list` only to deliberately use Inbox. An ambiguous or missing list writes nothing and returns candidates; ask the person, or set `create_if_missing` when they explicitly want a new list. Report the returned details status exactly.
Parametersurllistnotetitleauthoridempotency_keycreate_if_missing
add_items
Add several picks
Add up to 50 picks to one list in a single call, in order. Unlike add_item this never falls back to the Inbox: `list` must resolve to exactly one of the curator's lists or nothing is written.
Parameterslistrequireditemsrequiredidempotency_key
import_from_url
Import from a link
Import picks into a list from one link: a Google Maps list shared with "Anyone with the link" (every place, in order, with the owner's notes; pasting it again adds only new places), a Google Maps place (one pick) or a public YouTube playlist (up to 500 videos). Spotify playlists and Letterboxd lists no longer let apps read them; the tool says so, and the person can bring their export in Curated instead. For a whole list you want to sort first, use start_import.
Parametersurlrequiredlistrequired
start_import
Import a whole list
Bring a whole list in to sort, privately. Pass `url` for a Google Maps list shared with "Anyone with the link" (Curated reads every place), or `picks` you read yourself from anywhere else: a page, an account, a document or an export (up to 1,000 per call; send more with stage_picks). Nothing is added to a list until commit_import, and nothing is published.
Parametersurllistsortpickstitleown_listsource_owneridempotency_key
stage_picks
Add more picks to an import
Add up to 1,000 more picks to an import started with start_import, for sources longer than one call.
Parameterssortpicksrequiredimport_idrequired
review_import
See an import
Read an import's entries with their ids and states (kept, skipped, unsorted), to show the person or to sort.
Parametersstateoffsetimport_idrequired
sort_import
Keep or skip imported entries
Keep or skip entries in an import, by id or all unsorted at once, as the person decides. Never decide for them which posts are recommendations; suggest, then ask.
Parameterskeeprestskipimport_idrequired
commit_import
Add an import to a list
Add the kept entries of an import to a list, privately: the list given at start_import, another list of theirs, or a new private list. Safe to retry; nothing is added twice. A Google Maps list can stay connected so new saves there show up later.
Parameterslistconnectimport_idrequirednew_list_title
list_sources
See a list's linked source
Show what one of the person's lists is connected to: when it was last checked, what is new and waiting, and what is gone at the source.
Parameterslistrequired
check_source
Check a linked source now
Read a connected list's source again now (up to 10 times a day per list). New entries arrive by the list's policy; nothing is removed.
Parameterspolicysource_idrequired
list_items
Open my list for editing
Read every pick in one of your lists, in reader order, with item ids. Call this before update_item or remove_item to get the id you need.
Parameterslistrequired
search_items
Search my picks
Search the person's own picks on every list they made, the Inbox included, by name, their note, details, list title or link site. Forgives small typos. Useful to find something they kept, or to check for a duplicate before add_item.
Parameterslistqueryrequired
Edit one pick's title, curator note, URL or author. The note is the curator's own words and is never rewritten by AI, so preserve their voice.
ParametersurlnotetitleauthoritemIdrequired
Remove one pick from a list. Curated keeps it with its note, links and saves, and restore_item puts it back. Confirm with the curator first. Changes the working version only; readers keep seeing the last approved version until the owner approves a list update.
ParametersitemIdrequired
removed_items
See removed picks
List picks removed from one of the person's lists that have not been put back, newest first, with their notes and ids for restore_item. Follow nextCursor as cursor to reach older picks.
Parameterslistrequiredcursor
restore_item
Restore a removed pick
Put a removed pick back on its list where it was, with the same id, note, details, links and saves. Changes the working version only; readers keep seeing the last approved version until the owner approves a list update.
ParametersitemIdrequired
reorder_items
Reorder a list
Put a list's picks in a new order. Pass every item id exactly once, first to last, and the `revision` from list_items; if the list changed since, nothing is written and the current revision comes back. Changes the working order only; readers keep seeing the last approved version until the owner approves a list update. Private lists stay private.
Parameterslistrequiredorderrequiredrevisionrequired
move_items
Move picks to another list
Move picks from one of the person's lists to another, keeping each pick's note, details and history. They go to the end of the destination in the order given. Pass the source list's `revision` from list_items; if it changed since, nothing moves. Changes the working versions only; readers keep seeing the last approved versions. On a live destination, call review_items and confirm_items for the moved picks after the person's approval. Updating the source's published version requires separate owner approval. Private lists stay private. An archived list can't take picks until it is unarchived.
ParameterstorequiredfromrequireditemIdsrequiredrevisionrequiredtoRevision
review_items
Preview new picks
After adding or importing picks, fetch their enriched preview here. If preparing, wait briefly and call again. Render previewMarkdown: supplied artwork, title/byline, original note, short description and labeled links for every pick. Keep reviewId and itemRefs internal. Omit IDs, positions, confidence scores and provenance commentary. Ask once if it looks good. No app visit or later list update is needed. An unfinished preview survives reconnecting.
Parameterslistrequired
pick_review_status
Check whether picks were added
Read whether an exact pick preview was already confirmed, is pending, or expired. Use when reopening a previous preview or checking a lost confirmation response. Never adds picks, starts enrichment, or changes the review. Keep reviewId internal. If confirmed, do not ask for approval again.
ParametersreviewIdrequired
confirm_items
Add the approved picks
After the person approves the enriched preview from review_items, finish adding those exact picks. Published lists show them immediately; private lists stay private. Never approves unrelated edits. Requires lists.publish only for a published destination. If the preview changed, call review_items and show the refreshed picks.
ParametersreviewIdrequired
publish_list
Preview publishing
Prepare first publication or a list-wide update. For new picks use review_items and confirm_items during addition. Publishes nothing. Returns exactly what would become public and, when this connection may publish from chat, a review to confirm with confirm_publication after the owner agrees. Otherwise it returns a browser link where the owner publishes. Show the supplied public URL as a clickable link labeled "Link after publishing", distinct from the owner-only review link. The returned preview is the exact public content: present it as written, with no added images, layouts or caveats.
Parameterslistrequired
confirm_publication
Publish a reviewed list
Publish the exact list the owner reviewed, after they explicitly agree to that summary in this conversation. Never on an earlier general instruction like 'publish when done'. If anything changed since the review, nothing is published and a fresh review comes back to show them.
ParametershandlereviewIdrequired
search_lists
Search live lists
Search every live list on Curated, not just the person's own. Each result carries `access` (yours, unlocked or locked) and a `ref` of the form handle/slug, the unambiguous way to name a list in get_list.
Parameterslimitqueryrequiredcategory
find_lists
Find live lists
Search live Curated lists by topic, title, or curator handle. Returns exact slugs; use get_list_items to read one.
Parametersqueryrequired
Read one list: every pick of a live list, or of one of the person's own. Accepts handle/slug, a bare slug, a title, or an id.
Parameterslistrequiredformat
get_list_items
Read a list's picks
Read one list and report each pick's details status. The capture read-back check; use the exact slug returned by create_list or list_my_lists.
Parameterslistrequiredformat
Save a live list to Library under Saved lists, with its new picks. Never follows the curator, turns on email or publishes. Idempotent across retries.
Parameterslistrequired
saved_lists
See saved lists
Read back Saved lists, matching the app. Each one brings its new picks.
Parameterslimit
Save one pick from a list you can read, yours or anyone's, to Library under Saved picks. Use the item id from get_list_items or list_items. Does not copy the pick, follow or publish. Idempotent across retries.
ParameterslistitemIdrequired

ParametersitemIdrequired
saved_items
See saved picks
Read back your saved picks across every list, newest first, matching Saved picks in the app. Separate from saved_lists and from my_library access.
Parameterslistlimitcursor
add_saved_item
Add a saved pick to my list
Add a pick you can read, usually one from saved_items, to one of your own lists as a new pick. Carries the facts (title, link, place, type) and records where it was found; the note starts empty because the source curator's words are theirs. Does not change the source list or the save.
ParameterslistrequireditemIdrequiredidempotency_key
The lists this person saved, each bringing its new picks. Their own lists are not included; use list_my_lists for those.
Parameterslimit
search_library

Search the person's Library: picks they saved and the picks in lists in their Library, as readers see them. "What was that ramen place from the Tokyo list?"
Parameterslistlimitqueryrequired
library_updates
See what's new in my Library
What's new in the lists this person has access to since a point in time. Defaults to the last 7 days. Pass the returned `checkedAt` back as `since` next time for a gap-free diff.
Parameterslimitsince
get_list_updates
Save a free list

Explicitly follow or unfollow a curator by handle. Idempotent desired state, never a toggle. Does not save a list or enable email.
Parametershandlerequiredfollowingrequired
curator_notifications

Parametershandlerequiredenabled
list_notifications
Set new-pick notifications
Read every notification setting when `push` and `email` are omitted. Only on an explicit request, set push and/or email about new picks on one list the person gets updates for. Never changes access, saves or follows.
Parameterslistpushemail
unlock_list
Save a free list
Save a live free list with its new picks, only when the person asks. Same result as save_list. Idempotent; never charges anyone.
