# Search notes

> Read notes: free-form annotations on people and companies, and the stickers on a workflow canvas (object_type workflow). Scope with filter object_sid for one object's notes or one workflow's stickers (read them before changing a workflow), or search team-wide with filter q (FULLTEXT over body); include person and company to cite names. page_size 0 = counts only; counts.groups.object_type rides every response. Not for system facts (sends, replies): the activities timeline.

Contract:
- MCP tool `search_notes`, registry package `mcp.playtables/notes`, mount `playtables.pipeline`.
- Operation `search`, response envelope `search`.
- Flags: read only.



## OpenAPI

````yaml /api-reference/playtables/openapi.yaml post /api/notes/search
openapi: 3.0.3
info:
  title: 'GetSales public contract: gs.service.playtables'
  description: >-
    The data platform and the outreach engine: tables of people and companies,
    their enrichment columns, cells and runs, the data sources that feed them,
    sender profiles, the stoplist, the activity feed, the credit ledger, and the
    multichannel workflows with their per-person journeys and tasks.


    GENERATED. This document is projected from the Zod MCP tool registry in
    `product/mcp/gs.mcp` (one tool per public endpoint, 1:1). Do not edit it by
    hand; edit the tool definition and regenerate with `pnpm openapi:public`.


    Surface: the public `/api` contract of `gs.service.playtables`, 142
    operations. This is the only OpenAPI document the platform publishes.
    Internal (`/internal`) and health endpoints are deliberately absent: they
    are not part of any contract, they can change without notice, and the
    service source is their only description.


    Conventions:

    - Auth is a bearer JWT, optionally narrowed by the `Team-SID` header.

    - Every success body is an MCP envelope: `success: true` plus one typed
    `operation` shape (`search`, `get`, `create`, `update`, `delete`, `metrics`,
    `group_by`, `action`), and a `meta` block with `trace_id` for support.

    - Every failure is the same `McpError` envelope with a code from a fixed
    16-code taxonomy, so a client maps errors once.

    - Lists page with `page_size` (0 to 500, default 50) plus an opaque forward
    `cursor`; `page_size: 0` returns counts only.

    - On `GET` and `DELETE`, object-valued query parameters (`filter`, `sort`)
    travel as JSON text and array-valued ones repeat as `name[]=value`.

    - The MCP-only `_meta` field (usage analytics) never reaches the backend and
    is not part of this contract.
