Perplexity

Discover available data sources.

Use the `list_workspaces` tool to see every workspace Zenkit manages. It shows a complete overview of your environment, listing all accessible lists and their current status. Need more detail? The `get_workspace_details` tool pulls specific info on any given workspace. This lets you understand what's inside before you even try to read an entry.

Read and update list contents.

The `list_entries` tool retrieves all records from a specified Zenkit list. You get a full dump of the data, making it easy for your agent to pull context into the chat. If something needs changing, run `update_entry`. This lets you modify an existing record in a specific list without having to manually edit any source files.

Build new records instantly.

Want to create a brand-new item? The `create_entry` tool takes a JSON payload and writes the record into your specified Zenkit list. It's fast, reliable data ingestion directly from the chat. When you combine this with `list_elements`, you can ensure that any new entry follows the exact schema required by that particular list.
