List all projects/lists.
AI agents call ticktick_list_projects to retrieve information from TickTick 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 a list of existing projects without creating, modifying, deleting, or executing any operations. It is a pure read operation with minimal blast radius if misused by an AI agent—at worst, it exposes the structure of the user's project organization.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'ticktick_list_projects' and description 'List all projects/lists' indicate a retrieval operation with no modification or side effects.
