Tool reference

Read tools do not change your data, though every call is logged and some send data to a provider to do their work. Write tools change your own Tread Connection settings or data. Sensitive tools reach other people or change live JobTread data, and the JobTread ones show a preview first. The tools you see depend on your plan and role, so this list is longer than any one account's.
