Decisions tools for assistants (MCP)
The 46 tools an assistant can call for Decisions over MCP: what each one does, the scopes it needs, its arguments and an example call.
Spaces of decision documents: requests for comments, studies, product requirements and decision records. Each space holds documents with versions, reviews, questions and comments, diagrams, the pull requests and jobs linked to them, the work items that carry them out, and what the platform knows of them. Use it to write down why something is built and to follow that work to the end. An assistant calls these tools over MCP; the same operations over HTTP are in the Decisions API. Tools for assistants lists every product, and MCP shows how to connect an assistant.
Spaces
decisions_list_spaces
List spaces. The spaces where PRDs, ADRs, RFCs and studies live, newest first. With account_id, that account's. Empty: the account your sign-in names, or else every account you belong to (your own and each team), each space saying its account (account_id, account_name). A space's id is its space_id. 0 means 50, at most 200.
Scopes: mcp:read, decisions:read · reads only
| Argument | Type | What it is |
|---|---|---|
account_id | string | The account. Empty: the account the caller's token names (the one they chose), or, for a person whose token names none, every account they belong to (their own and each team), each space naming its account. |
department | string | Only this department. |
kind | string | Only spaces of this kind: space, department or project. |
page_size | integer | |
page_token | string | The next_page_token of the page before. |
parent_id | string | Only the spaces directly under this one. |
query | string | Narrows to spaces whose name or slug contains this, any case. |
top_level | boolean | Only spaces at the top, with no parent. |

}decisions_create_space
Make a space. Make a Decisions space in an account, where its PRDs, ADRs, RFCs and studies will live, with the default settings: name (1 to 80 characters), optionally a slug (lowercase letters, digits and -, at most 48; empty derives it from the name) and a description (at most 500). An empty account_id is the caller's own; making one needs write rights in that account. The same slug again is refused as already existing, never a second space. The space is made by the person the assistant acts for, and recorded as made through the assistant.

Needs the right to manage the space (its account's owner or an admin). Deleting a space, its settings and its people stay in the console.

outward | boolean | The scope faces outward (see Document.outward). |
parent_id | string | Make it a part of this document of the space: a top-level RFC, or a top-level study for a study. Its number is the parent's, its file NNNN.N-slug.md, and the front matter says parent: NNNN-slug. |

}decisions_save_document
Save a draft. Save a new version of a document made from base_version, the version read. When someone saved since, the call fails with conflict and the current version's number: nothing is overwritten and nothing is retried.

}decisions_set_status
Move a document's status. Move a document to a status of its kind (for example into review, naming a decider and a review-by day; or decided once its approvals are in). Made from base_version: someone saving since fails with conflict. Deciding needs the space's approvals on the current version. An assistant decides only where the space's ai_approval allows it, or accepts (publishes a study) with approval_id, an approved document ask for the current version that a person decided on their device: the decision is then that person's, once per ask.

}Questions and waiting
decisions_get_waiting
What waits on me.

Counts per kind. An empty account_id is the caller's own.

}What the platform knows
atlas_list_facts
What Atlas knows. The facts Atlas currently believes about a space's system (what runs, what depends on what, which decision governs it), derived and observed. Each says its support (none, observed, supported, verified), its validity (current, stale, expired; stale is not false) and whether evidence contradicts it. Filter by subject, derived, validity or contradicted. space_id is a Decisions space (decisions_list_spaces). Answer from these, never from memory.

Why Atlas believes a fact.
