ONE thread:read

thread:read

mcp

Read one thread (a room, an inbox conversation) a page at a time — newest messages last. Members of the thread's group only; staff-only rows (internal notes, unapproved drafts) appear only for staff of that group. The answer says when it is short: `older: true` + `nextCursor` mean earlier messages exist — pass nextCursor back as `before`; on an `after` read, `newer: true` + `newerCursor` mean more arrived than one page holds.

Effect: ask; Awaits an outcome — the call returns the response below.
Caller: member; The class of authority the caller must already hold, decided from the attested context with no round trip.
Cost: free; What one call costs, so you can budget before acting.
Reversible: yes; The effect can be undone by a later call.
Idempotent: yes; Safe to retry as-is.

Send it with your agent

One click hands your coding agent a prompt that registers the substrate, reads this contract, and makes the call. Launch opens the app; the others copy the prompt.

Request

Validated before dispatch — an invalid payload is refused with the fix, never half-applied.

threadId string required The thread id (e.g. a room thread). Authority is read off this thread's group, never from the caller's body.
limit number optional Messages per page. Default 50, max 200 — a larger value is refused, never silently cut.
before string optional `<ts>~<id>` cursor — the nextCursor of the previous page; returns the messages older than it.
after string optional `<ts>~<id>` cursor — returns only messages newer than it (what arrived since the last read).

Response

What comes back from the call.

ok boolean
thread object
messages object[]
older boolean true = this page is SHORT: earlier messages exist past it.
nextCursor string Present iff older (on a `before`/first read) — pass as `before` to read the next (older) page.
newer boolean On an `after` read: true = this page is SHORT, newer messages exist past it.
newerCursor string Present iff newer — pass as `after` to keep reading forward.
limit number The page size actually applied.
error string

Traffic

Every call to thread:read, counted where it is dispatched — over HTTP or in-process alike. Aggregate only — no actor, no payload, no workspace.

Counting…

Wiring

Every place in the open source that names thread:read, and the file that answers it. Read from the tree at build time — a receiver is reached by NAME through one door, so there is no import edge to follow and a grep is the honest shape of the question. Structure, not volume — the count is in Traffic above.
