List ConnectWise companies with optional status and type filters.
AI agents call search_companies to retrieve information from ConnectWise Live MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool queries and returns existing company records from ConnectWise with optional filtering parameters. It has no side effects, does not create, modify, or delete data, and does not trigger external operations. It is a straightforward read operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent—the worst outcome would be exposure of company information already accessible within the system.
From the tool's definition Tool performs a 'List' operation with 'optional status and type filters' to retrieve company data. The verb 'search' and action 'List' indicate data retrieval without modification.
