Read change events

list_events Read one independent change feed: links, targets or citations. Citation events compare eligible epochs, never single answers. Keep each feed cursor separate and apply a full page before saving next_cursor; unknown outcomes do not prove loss.

Available in the deployed MCP and HTTP bundle. Confirm access and inputs with your connected catalog. Workspace scopes and enabled providers still apply.

`events:read`	Reads saved data

Example request

Connect through MCP, CLI, or HTTP. Replace example identifiers with records from your workspace.

{
  "jsonrpc": "2.0",
  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "list_events",
    "arguments": {
      "feed": "links",
      "limit": 50
    }
  }
}

agentlinkops call list_events --args '{"feed":"links","limit":50}'

curl "$AGENTLINKOPS_API_URL/v1/commands/list_events" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $AGENTLINKOPS_API_KEY" \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"feed":"links","limit":50}'

Returned result

Illustrative data validated against the documented response schema. IDs and dates are examples, not a live account capture. MCP returns this data in structuredContent and in a text content block; generic HTTP and CLI return the JSON result directly.

{
  "workspace_id": "ws_example",
  "events": [],
  "next_cursor": "example_opaque_cursor",
  "has_more": false
}

Response formats

format selects the row shape. detailed is the example above: every field. concise keeps, per row: id, type, watch_id, target_id, created_at, cursor, data (before and after snapshots without occurrences, expectations and signatures; observation_id; evidence_key); every top-level field (cursors, counts, coverage, metadata) is kept in both. The observation state an unknown-versus-absent decision depends on is never dropped. MCP and code mode default to concise; the CLI and HTTP default to detailed; the response names the default it applied in defaults_applied.

Input fields

Omit optional fields when you do not want to supply them. Null is accepted only where listed. Unknown input properties are rejected.

Field	Type	Presence	Meaning and constraints
`feed`	string	Required	Which change feed to read: links (placement changes) or targets (destination-health changes); each feed keeps its own cursor. values: “links”, “targets”, “citations”
`cursor`	string	Optional	Opaque continuation returned by this same listing; omit for the first page.
`limit`	integer	Optional	Maximum rows in this page or bounded report; subject to the schema maximum. minimum: 1; maximum: 100; default: 50
`projectId`	string	Optional	Identifier of the project returned by its create or list operation. minLength: 1; maxLength: 200
`format`	string	Optional	Response shape: concise keeps the fields needed to decide and to call next (the evidence state always included); detailed returns every field. MCP and code mode default to concise; REST and the CLI to detailed. The response names the default it applied in defaults_applied. values: “concise”, “detailed”

Validation and omitted values

feed selects one of two independent feeds with separate cursors: links for placement changes, targets for destination-health changes. Never reuse a cursor across feeds. The retired names list_link_events and list_target_events resolve here with the feed implied. Omit cursor for the first page. Keep continuation cursors opaque and use them only with the same listing and filters. Omitting projectId reads the accessible workspace scope rather than selecting a different project. Events are ordered by sequence ascending. Apply the entire returned page before persisting the next cursor. Each event feed has its own cursor history. Without a cursor, reads start at the beginning of retained source-event history. An expired supplied cursor returns snapshot recovery instructions. Without a cursor, reads start at the beginning of retained destination-event history. An expired supplied cursor returns destination snapshot recovery instructions. The citations feed has its own cursor and contains server-recomputed eligible epoch comparisons. Imported single-answer flips and unknown-only epochs do not emit a change. Statistical interpretation remains conditional on prespecified comparisons and sampling assumptions.

Defaults when omitted

Field	Default
`limit`	`50`

Output fields

Fields inside optional or nullable parents apply only when that parent exists. Common schema conventions explain evidence states, empty lists and extensions.

workspace_id (string, optional): Workspace that owns this record.
events (array, required).
next_cursor (string, required): Opaque checkpoint for this feed. Save it after processing the events, even when has_more is false. Continue paging only while has_more is true.
has_more (boolean, required): True when another page is available.

`events[].data.observation_id`	string	Optional	Identifier returned by the related operation.
`next_cursor`	string	Required	Opaque checkpoint for this feed. Save it after processing the events, even when has_more is false. Continue paging only while has_more is true.
`has_more`	boolean	Required	True when another page is available.

Errors and retries

The command is annotated idempotent. Reuse an accepted idempotency key when the input provides one; changing the payload under a reused key can conflict. See error recovery for status, scope, cooldown, cursor and retry handling. Unknown observations are result data and do not establish loss.

HTTP resource routes

These existing resource routes share the operation’s domain behavior. Their parameter placement, status and response envelope can differ from generic invocation. See HTTP route details.

Method and route	Success	Details
`GET /v1/events`	200	Remaining read arguments go in query parameters.
`GET /v1/target-events`	200	Remaining read arguments go in query parameters.
`GET /v1/citation-events`	200	Reads the citation feed only; remaining read arguments go in query parameters.
