# get_context

> Engineered context for one task about one entity. The headline call before drafting outreach, prepping a meeting, or making any decision about a person or company.

The most-used tool. Pass who you're working on and what you're about to do — get back a focused, ranked block: the account's ICP fit score, facts with confidence + freshness, the recent timeline, any saved notes & documents on the contact, the buying-group stakeholders, and any open predictions.

## Parameters

The **DOCUMENTS** block is an overview (snippets only) of the notes and meeting records kept on the contact via [`save_note`](/mcp/tools/save-note). To pull the relevant content from them, use [`search_notes`](/mcp/tools/search-notes).

### Ambiguous name

If `focus` is a name that matches several people:

```
"Sarah Chen" matches several people. Call get_context again with one of these entity ids:
  • Sarah Chen — VP Sales @ Acme  [a1b2c3d4-...]
  • Sarah Chen — Designer @ Pixel [b2c3d4e5-...]
```

## When to call it

* **Before any outbound action** on a known contact
* **At the start of meeting prep** — pick the `intent` that matches the use case
* **Whenever your agent needs to ground a decision** in a person's current state

For raw data ("what do we know about X?"), prefer [`get_account`](/mcp/tools/get-account). For questions about your OWN business (ICP, pricing), use [`get_playbook`](/mcp/tools/get-playbook).
