#Tools

• createSignal — Create signal event (write)

  Create a signal event for an account, contact, deal, lead, account domain, or custom identity. Uses an existing active signal definition and processes the event with its configured automations and notifications.

  Scopes: tools.signals.write

• describeSignalById — Describe signal by ID (read)

  Get the full definition for a signal by ID. Returns metadata, schema fields, agent configuration, and any workspace-authored AI guidance in aiInstructions, which can be surfaced or summarized for the user.

  Scopes: tools.default.read, tools.crm.read, tools.signals.read

• listSignalsForAccount — List signals for account (read)

  List recent explicit signals detected for a CRM account. Returns UI event data, traceable Bigmind links, signal metadata, and any workspace-authored AI guidance in metadata.aiInstructions, which can be surfaced or summarized for the user.

  Scopes: tools.default.read, tools.crm.read, tools.signals.read

• listSignalsForContact — List signals for contact (read)

  List recent signals for a CRM contact, including event data, traceable Bigmind links, signal metadata, and workspace-authored AI guidance in metadata.aiInstructions.

  Scopes: tools.default.read, tools.crm.read, tools.signals.read

• upsertSignalDefinition — Upsert signal definition (write)

  Create or update one workspace event-signal definition and its event payload schema by stable signalKey. Supply eventSchema as a JSON Schema object to create a new latest version, or omit it to preserve the current schema. Existing events keep their schema versions. This is the normal user-facing configuration tool for external buying signals and internal customer or product signals. It does not fabricate signal occurrences or Inbox work.
