MCP update: contact search, message text, and reports

September 5, 2026

This release adds contact search and pagination to Winly’s MCP integration and reduces repeated work when generating reports.

Contact search

Search by a full or partial username, name, or phone number, then select a contact from the results. Tools that view or update one contact require an exact contact ID or handle. If a handle matches multiple contacts, you must select the intended contact.

Conversation text

Contact conversation responses include full text for non-email messages. Email previews are limited to 500 characters. You can request conversation history in pages; requests without pagination still return the full history.

Reports and lists

Contact and activity lists support pagination and optional totals. Rep-performance reports include an “as of” time and may return results from the previous 60 seconds.

Changes for custom integrations

• Use search_contacts for partial names or handles, then pass the selected contact ID to other tools.

• VIP results are paginated by default. Follow the continuation cursor for more contacts. Counts apply to the returned page.

• A total that cannot be calculated in time is marked unavailable.

• Conversation search reports when it is unavailable for your workspace.
