## Description

Search companies by name, domain, funding, size, industry, location, growth, or technology. Use this to qualify a target company or find companies matching structured Filters before reaching out. Use **Search People** afterward to find people at a matched company; enable Resolve Only to just disambiguate a single company name, domain, or LinkedIn URL without running a full search — Resolve Only returns identity metadata ONLY (name, domain, a coarse `employee_count`, `industries`), never a company's real size or description. When the task needs to know a company's actual size or what it does, leave Resolve Only off (or set it false) and set Result Mode to `detailed`; don't fill gaps from outside knowledge when Resolve Only comes back thin — re-call with `detailed` instead. Company rows in `detailed` mode can be large — pass Fields (e.g. `name`, `domain`, `employee_count`) to keep the result small. [See the documentation](https://supercarl.ai/docs#endpoints-companies)

## Props

| Prop | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `query` | `string` | No | Natural-language search query, for example Head of Growth candidates in NYC warm through my network. |
| `filters` | `object` | No | Optional Super Carl AdvancedFilters JSON object for structured constraints. Example: { "job_titles": { "include": ["Head of Growth"], "current_only": true }, "locations": { "include": ["New York"] }, "connection_degrees": ["1st"] }. |
| `previewLimit` | `integer` | No | Maximum number of preview rows to return. |
| `resolveOnly` | `boolean` | No | Return only company disambiguation metadata for a named company, domain, or LinkedIn company URL. Example query values: stripe.com, https://www.linkedin.com/company/stripe, or Stripe. |
| `resultMode` | `string` | No | Level of company-row detail to return. Use preview for fast, compact rows, or detailed when the workflow needs richer company metadata. |
| `includeEvidenceText` | `boolean` | No | Include supporting evidence text on company rows when available. |
| `delegateUserId` | `string` | No | Optional Super Carl team-seat user ID to search as. This is the UUID of a teammate's user record that the API key owner can delegate to, for example 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000. |
| `fields` | `string[]` | No | Optional list of fields to return per row instead of the full record — keeps large result sets well under the context limit. Supports dot-paths for nested values, for example name, linkedin_profile_url, resolved_target.id. Omit this prop to return the API default field set (every field). |

  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()

// listTools() hands your model this tool's input schema, so it can
// fill the arguments itself:
const result = await mcp.callTool({
  name: "super_carl-search-companies",
  arguments: {
    query: "Query",
    filters: "Filters",
  },
})
