Instructions for AI Agents

Follow the identifier chain

1. Call list_workspace_spaces, optionally filtering type by all, self, shared, or public, or using search_name.
2. Use the returned space_id with list_workspace_folders; optionally search folder names.
3. Call list_workspace_fields(space_id) when fields, AI labels, custom fields, or annotations are involved.
4. Call get_workspace_patents(space_id, folder_id, ...) for folder patents.
5. Call get_workspace_annotations(space_id, folder_id, ...) for AI-label/custom-field values and optional comments.

Never guess space_id, folder_id, or field_ids. When multiple names match, present candidates before reading a large collection.

Respect tool limits

get_workspace_patents supports keyword, limit, and zero-based offset. It does not support filters, sorting, ranges, custom-field filters, or AI-label filters. If you post-filter a manageable returned set, label that as local processing rather than a server-side query.

get_workspace_annotations accepts optional patent_ids or publication numbers, with a maximum of 200, optional field_ids, include_comments, and pagination controls. Empty annotations mean no stored value, not a negative classification.

Report scope

Preserve workspace and folder names with their IDs, state whether results are complete or sampled, cite publication numbers or returned IDs, and distinguish comments from structured field values. The MCP is read-oriented; do not imply it edits workspace content.

Example Workflows

• List shared workspaces whose names contain “battery”.
• Read the first 50 patents from a selected folder.
• List custom fields and AI-label fields in a workspace.
• Retrieve annotations and comments for selected publication numbers.
