## Tools available

**21** tools available. First 12:

- `JOBNIMBUS_ACCOUNT_CREATE_LOCATION` — Create Location — Tool to create a new location in JobNimbus. Use after gathering address and contact details.
- `JOBNIMBUS_ACCOUNT_GET_SETTINGS` — Get Account Settings — Tool to retrieve account-wide settings (workflows, types, sources). Use after authenticating to load or refresh workflow and source mappings.
- `JOBNIMBUS_ACTIVITY_GET` — Get Activity by ID — Retrieves a specific JobNimbus activity by its unique jnid. Activities in JobNimbus represent logged events such as task modifications, contact updates, job creation, and other system actions. Each activity contains details about what changed, who made the change, and when it occurred. Use this action when you need detailed information about a specific activity, such as viewing the full history of changes or understanding who performed an action.
- `JOBNIMBUS_CONTACT_GET` — Get Contact by ID — Tool to retrieve a contact by ID. Use after obtaining the contact’s jnid to fetch full details.
- `JOBNIMBUS_CONTACT_LIST` — List Contacts — Tool to list all contacts. Use when you need to fetch multiple contacts, e.g., for reporting or synchronization.
- `JOBNIMBUS_CONTACT_UPDATE` — Update Contact — Tool to update an existing contact. Use when you have a contact's JNID and need to modify its fields. Call after fetching or creating a contact.
- `JOBNIMBUS_CREATE_FILE_TYPE` — Create File Attachment Type — Creates a new file attachment type in JobNimbus. File types are custom categories used to organize and classify document attachments (e.g., contracts, warranties, photos, permits). You must create a file type before you can upload files with that category.
- `JOBNIMBUS_CREATE_MATERIAL_ORDER` — Create Material Order — Creates a new material order in JobNimbus. A material order tracks materials needed for a job and can be submitted to suppliers. Material orders must be linked to a contact or job record and include at least one line item referencing an existing product from your Products & Services catalog. Prerequisites: - At least one contact or job record must exist (use JOBNIMBUS_CONTACT_LIST to find contacts) - Products must exist in your catalog (use JOBNIMBUS_LIST_PRODUCTS to find product IDs) Note: Custom line items are not supported - all items must reference existing products by their jnid.
- `JOBNIMBUS_CREATE_TASK` — Create Task — Tool to create a new task. Use when scheduling or tracking tasks linked to contacts or jobs.
- `JOBNIMBUS_CREATE_WORKFLOW_STATUS` — Create Workflow Status — Tool to create a new status in an existing workflow. Use after confirming the workflow ID to add specialized status entries like 'Lead' or 'Inspection'.
- `JOBNIMBUS_FILE_GET` — Get File Attachment Content by ID — Retrieves the raw content of a specific file attachment from JobNimbus by its unique ID. This action downloads the actual file content (binary data for PDFs, images, etc.) but does NOT return file metadata like filename, content type, or size. If you need metadata, use the files list endpoint instead. Common use case: Download a file attachment after obtaining its jnid from a list files query or from a related record (contact, job, etc.).
- `JOBNIMBUS_LIST_ACTIVITIES` — List Activities — Tool to retrieve all activities. Use after authentication to fetch a paginated list of activities.

## How agents use JobNimbus

Inside a Definable workflow, JobNimbus is one of the tools the **Distributor specialist** can call. Example coordination patterns:

- **Researcher → JobNimbus** — the Researcher (GPT-5.5) pulls context from JobNimbus (records, threads, documents), synthesises findings, and briefs the rest of the team.
- **Writer → Distributor → JobNimbus** — the Writer (Claude Opus 4.7) drafts copy in brand voice, the Verifier passes it, then the Distributor writes the result into JobNimbus (create record, post message, draft email).
- **Designer / Engineer → Distributor → JobNimbus** — the Designer ships an asset or the Engineer ships a code change, the Distributor delivers it via JobNimbus (attach file, open PR comment, post status).

The Verifier checks every JobNimbus call. On rate limit, schema drift, or auth refresh it self-heals and retries — the workflow completes without manual intervention.
