# Call brand_kit.read

`POST /api/v1/tools/brand_kit.read`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://app.goosybear.ai`
- URL: `https://app.goosybear.ai/api/v1/tools/brand_kit.read`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

'what's our one-liner?', 'which offer is running right now?', 'find the photo of Alex at the counter' — read this workspace's brand kit: who the brand is, what it offers, who it is for, how it sounds and looks, where it is, its video settings, and its pictures by label, kind and tag (never the files). Each fact says whether a member confirmed it or it is still a suggestion; a suggestion carries the fact_id and updated_at a member confirms on the brand page. A large kit comes back in part, with `omitted` naming the groups to read next by `group`. It changes nothing. Not for adding or correcting a fact — that is `brand_kit.suggest`.

Every result names the workspace it ran in. Say which workspace the answer is about. When the account has more than one workspace and none is selected, this tool refuses with `workspace_ambiguous` and lists the choices — offer them, never pick one.

## Headers

- `x-request-id` string

## Request body

- object
  - `group` 'identity' | 'offer' | 'audience' | 'verbal' | 'visual' | 'reach' | 'video': Only this section of the kit. Omit for the whole kit; a long section comes back in part, and `omitted` names what to read next.
  - `kind` string: Only this kind of fact — every row of one list, by the `kind` a section of `sections` names. Use it to read the whole of a list `sections` says was shortened (`shown` below its count).
  - `cursor` string: The next page of the list read with `kind`: pass the `next_cursor` the last read returned, with the same `kind`. Omit it for the first page.
  - `library_query` string: A word to find pictures by — a label, a kind or a tag ('book cover', 'person', 'product').
  - `workspace` string: Which workspace to run in — its slug. Omit to use your default. With more than one reachable workspace and no default, the call is refused and the choices are listed.

## Response `200`

The call was admitted and dispatched. `ok` says whether the tool succeeded — a refusal the tool itself produced is still a 200, exactly as it is a successful JSON-RPC result over MCP.

## Other responses

- `400`: The request could not be used: the body is present but not a JSON object (`tenant_api.malformed_body`); it is a top-level array carrying more messages than this endpoint accepts (`tenant_mcp.batch_too_large`); or the `Idempotency-Key` header is malformed (`tenant_api.idempotency_key_invalid`), disagrees with the body's `idempotency_key` (`tenant_api.idempotency_key_conflict`), or was sent to an action that cannot replay a retry (`tenant_api.idempotency_unsupported`). Nothing ran.
- `401`: No bearer credential, or one that did not resolve. Deliberately ONE undifferentiated answer for absent / unknown / revoked / expired, so the endpoint is never an oracle over the key space.
- `403`: The credential is good but the surface is not open to it — the platform or account API switch is off, or the holder lacks the `api.access` capability. The `code` says which.
- `404`: No such tool. The body names no tool and is identical for every unrecognised name.
- `429`: Over this key's per-minute cap. Carries `Retry-After` and `error.retry_after_seconds`.
