Cases tools for assistants (MCP)

The 24 tools an assistant can call for Cases over MCP: what each one does, the scopes it needs, its arguments and an example call.

Studies of a client and the cases cut from them: versions, shares to a customer organisation or to named people, who opened what, and lessons a person approves before they are kept. Enterprise accounts only; any refusal answers not found, so a case's existence never leaks. Use it to share proven work with a customer. An assistant calls these tools over MCP; the same operations over HTTP are in the Cases API. Tools for assistants lists every product, and MCP shows how to connect an assistant.
