# summarizeThread

query · in the family [Reading your records](/reference/reading-your-records/)

## What it does

Ask AI for a short synopsis of this record’s note thread — what it is about, what was decided, what still hangs.

Ask AI to summarize one record's note thread: the model reads the THREAD YOU SENT (one line per note — the server reads no tenant data of its own) and answers a short plain-text synopsis: what the thread is about, what was decided, what still hangs — 2..6 lines. A synopsis is not an issues-review (that is reviewRecord). READ-ONLY — nothing changes. Trimmed and bounded 1..2000. `type` is the record kind word; `text` is the thread (<= 4000 chars). Refuses INTEGRATION/UNAVAILABLE while the assistant is offline/keyless. Requires authentication (user sessions). Every made call is cost-metered (at.ai.call.v1).

## What happens

Read-only advice over the notes already on screen; nothing changes on the record. This is a summary, not a data-quality review (that is the record review).
