# List tools

> Returns the tools available to the caller across all applications, honoring the optional
filters and pagination. Set available=true to restrict results to tools the caller
can currently execute. Supplying toolsetId additionally includes the caller's
workflow-backed tools scoped to that toolset, alongside the standard activity tools.
Deprecated tools are excluded unless includeDeprecated=true.
