# Generate playtable field condition

`POST /api/playtable-fields/generate-condition`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://beta.getsales.io/playtables/v1`
- URL: `https://beta.getsales.io/playtables/v1/api/playtable-fields/generate-condition`
- Auth: HTTP bearer and API key in header `Team-SID`

Turn a run rule in words into the AST config.run_condition takes, for a draft column of one tab: one llm.generate call (credits_charged says what it cost), the tab's columns and the built-in attributes as its vocabulary, the answer validated like a saved condition. Never a failed request: error_code says why there is no AST (condition_not_expressible, condition_invalid, generation_unparseable, a lane code). Try it with preview_playtable_field_condition, then save it with nl_condition beside it.

Contract:
- MCP tool `generate_playtable_field_condition`, registry package `mcp.playtables/playtable_fields`, mount `playtables.columns`.
- Operation `action`, response envelope `action`.
- Flags: none.

## Request body

- GeneratePlaytableFieldConditionRequest: Request body of `generate_playtable_field_condition`.
  - `playtable_sid` string, required: Owner playtable sid (pt_tb_…).
  - `object_type` 'people' | 'company', required: Which rows the rule is about, people or company: the tab the draft column belongs to.
  - `nl_condition` string, required: The rule in words ("only companies with a website and nobody found yet"). The prompt gets the tab's columns and the built-in attributes, never row data; a column the tab lacks cannot be used.

## Response `200`

`action` success envelope.

- `5XX`: MCP error envelope with `error.code` internal_error or service_unavailable.
