+## ⚠️ **Known Limitations & Important Notes**
+
+### **Current Limitations**
+
+- **Field Parameter Filtering**: Tasks endpoint `/objects/tasks/attributes` has limitations, handled with fallback patterns
+- **Pagination**: Tasks pagination uses in-memory handling due to API constraints
+
+### **API Compatibility**
+
+- **Universal Tools**: Primary interface (14 tools) - recommended for all new integrations
+- **Legacy Tools**: Available via `DISABLE_UNIVERSAL_TOOLS=true` environment variable (deprecated)
+- **Lists API**: Fully functional with complete CRUD operations (contrary to some outdated documentation)
+
+### 🤝 **OpenAI MCP Compatibility**
+
+- **Developer Mode Ready**: Every tool now publishes MCP safety annotations (`readOnlyHint`, `destructiveHint`) so OpenAI Developer Mode can auto-approve reads and request confirmation for writes.
+- **Search Compatibility Surface**: The `search` and `fetch` tools remain available for OpenAI’s baseline MCP support. Set `ATTIO_MCP_TOOL_MODE=search` to expose only these read-only endpoints (plus health checks) when Developer Mode is unavailable.
+- **Default Behaviour**: With `ATTIO_MCP_TOOL_MODE` unset, the full universal tool set is exposed—matching Claude’s experience—while OpenAI users still see the compatibility wrappers.
+- **Detailed Guide**: See [docs/chatgpt-developer-mode.md](./docs/chatgpt-developer-mode.md) for environment variables, approval flows, and validation tips.
+- **User Documentation**: See the [ChatGPT Developer Mode docs](./docs/chatgpt-developer-mode.md) for a complete walkthrough of approval flows and setup instructions.
+
+### **Performance Considerations**
+
+- **Batch Operations**: Optimized with chunking, rate limiting, and error recovery
+- **Large Datasets**: Automatic pagination and field filtering for optimal performance
+- **Rate Limiting**: Built-in protection against API rate limits with exponential backoff

+## 🎯 **Mastering Advanced Search Filters**
+
+**The Power Behind Precise CRM Queries** - Stop wrestling with complex data searches. Our advanced filtering system lets you find exactly what you need with surgical precision.
+
+> _"Find all AI companies with 50+ employees that we haven't contacted in 30 days and add them to our Q1 outreach list"_ - This kind of complex query is exactly what advanced search filters excel at.
+
+### 🏗️ **Filter Architecture**
+
+Every advanced search follows this proven pattern that's been battle-tested across thousands of CRM queries:
+
+```json
+{
+  "resource_type": "companies",
+  "filters": {
+    "filters": [
+      {
+        "attribute": { "slug": "field_name" },
+        "condition": "operator",
+        "value": "search_value"
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### ⚡ **Real-World Examples**
+
+**🔍 Single Criteria Search**
+
+```json
+{
+  "resource_type": "companies",
+  "filters": {
+    "filters": [
+      {
+        "attribute": { "slug": "name" },
+        "condition": "contains",
+        "value": "Tech"
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**🎯 Multi-Criteria Power Search (AND Logic)**
+
+```json
+{
+  "resource_type": "companies",
+  "filters": {
+    "filters": [
+      {
+        "attribute": { "slug": "name" },
+        "condition": "contains",
+        "value": "Tech"
+      },
+      {
+        "attribute": { "slug": "employee_count" },
+        "condition": "greater_than",
+        "value": 50
+      },
+      {
+        "attribute": { "slug": "industry" },
+        "condition": "equals",
+        "value": "AI/Machine Learning"
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**🚀 Flexible OR Logic**
+
+```json
+{
+  "resource_type": "companies",
+  "filters": {
+    "filters": [
+      {
+        "attribute": { "slug": "name" },
+        "condition": "contains",
+        "value": "Tech"
+      },
+      {
+        "attribute": { "slug": "name" },
+        "condition": "contains",
+        "value": "AI"
+      }
+    ],
+    "matchAny": true
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 🧠 **Smart Filter Operators**
+
+| Operator       | Perfect For         | Example Use Case                      |
+| -------------- | ------------------- | ------------------------------------- |
+| `contains`     | Text searches       | Finding companies with "Tech" in name |
+| `equals`       | Exact matches       | Specific industry classification      |
+| `starts_with`  | Prefix searches     | Companies beginning with "Acme"       |
+| `ends_with`    | Suffix searches     | Companies ending with "Inc"           |
+| `greater_than` | Numerical analysis  | Companies with 100+ employees         |
+| `less_than`    | Size filtering      | Startups under 50 people              |
+| `is_empty`     | Data cleanup        | Find records missing key information  |
+| `is_not_empty` | Completeness checks | Records with populated fields         |
+
+### 💡 **Pro Tips for Different Teams**
+
+**🎯 Sales Teams** - Use these field combinations:
+
+- **Companies**: `name`, `industry`, `employee_count`, `website`, `location`
+- **People**: `full_name`, `job_title`, `email`, `company`
+
+**📈 Marketing Teams** - Focus on engagement fields:
+
+- **Activity tracking**: `last_interaction`, `email_status`, `campaign_response`
+- **Segmentation**: `industry`, `company_size`, `location`, `engagement_score`
+
+**✅ Customer Success** - Monitor health metrics:
+
+- **Account health**: `renewal_date`, `support_tickets`, `usage_metrics`
+- **Risk indicators**: `last_contact`, `satisfaction_score`, `contract_value`
+
+### 🚨 **Avoid These Common Mistakes**
+
+❌ **Wrong** (Flat object structure):
+
+```json
+{
+  "filters": {
+    "name": { "operator": "contains", "value": "Test" }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+✅ **Correct** (Nested array structure):
+
+```json
+{
+  "filters": {
+    "filters": [
+      {
+        "attribute": { "slug": "name" },
+        "condition": "contains",
+        "value": "Test"
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### 🔧 **Quick Troubleshooting**
+
+**Getting "Filters must include a 'filters' array property"?**
+
+1. ✅ Ensure your filters object contains a `filters` array
+2. ✅ Each array item needs `attribute`, `condition`, and `value`
+3. ✅ The `attribute` must be an object with a `slug` property
+4. ✅ Double-check your JSON structure matches the examples above
+
+**💬 Pro Tip**: Start with simple single-filter searches, then build complexity once you're comfortable with the structure.

 ## ⚡ Quick Start
 
 ### Prerequisites
+
 - Node.js (v18 or higher)
 - Attio API Key ([Get one here](https://app.attio.com/settings/api))
 - Attio Workspace ID
 
 ### 1. Set Environment Variables
+
 ```bash
 export ATTIO_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
 export ATTIO_WORKSPACE_ID="your_workspace_id_here"
+
+# Optional: Deal defaults configuration
+export ATTIO_DEFAULT_DEAL_STAGE="Interested"           # Default stage for new deals
+export ATTIO_DEFAULT_DEAL_OWNER="user@company.com"     # Default owner email address (see below)
+export ATTIO_DEFAULT_CURRENCY="USD"                    # Default currency for deal values
 ```

 ```
 
-### 3. Configure Claude Desktop
+### 3. 🎯 **CRITICAL: Configure Field Mappings**
+
+The MCP server uses **field mapping files** to translate between natural language and Attio's API field names. **This configuration is essential for proper operation.**
+
+#### **Quick Setup**
+
+```bash
+# 1. Copy the sample configuration to create your user config
+cp configs/runtime/mappings/sample.json configs/runtime/mappings/user.json
+
+# 2. Edit user.json to match your workspace's custom fields
+# Focus on the "objects.companies" and "objects.people" sections
+```
+
+#### **Configuration Files** (in `configs/runtime/mappings/`)
+
+- **`default.json`** - Standard Attio CRM fields (loaded first, don't edit)
+- **`sample.json`** - Examples with custom field templates (copy from this, not used at runtime)
+- **`user.json`** - **YOUR workspace-specific overrides** (merged on top of default.json)
+
+> 💡 **Key Insight**: `user.json` is merged on top of `default.json`, so only include **overrides and additions**. Don't duplicate mappings that already exist in `default.json`.
+
+#### **How Configuration Merging Works**
+
+The MCP server loads configuration in this order:
+
+1. **`default.json`** - Contains all standard Attio fields (Name, Description, Team, etc.)
+2. **`user.json`** - Your custom additions/overrides are **merged on top**
+
+**Example**: If `default.json` has `"Name": "name"` and your `user.json` also has `"Name": "name"`, that's wasted tokens. Only include fields that are:
+
+- **New custom fields** (not in default.json)
+- **Different mappings** (overriding default behavior)
+
+#### **Optimized user.json Example**
+
+```json
+{
+  "mappings": {
+    "attributes": {
+      "objects": {
+        "companies": {
+          "// Only your custom fields - defaults are inherited": "",
+          "Lead Score": "lead_score",
+          "B2B Segment": "b2b_segment",
+          "Industry Vertical": "custom_industry_field"
+        }
+      }
+    },
+    "lists": {
+      "// Only your specific lists": "",
+      "Sales Pipeline": "your-pipeline-list-id"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**✅ Good**: Only custom/override fields  
+**❌ Wasteful**: Duplicating standard fields from default.json
+
+> ⚠️ **Without proper mapping configuration, the MCP server may not work correctly with your custom fields and lists.**
+
+**Next:** Verify your field mappings work by testing with Claude:
+
+```
+"Find companies in our pipeline with lead score > 80"
+```
+
+### 4. Configure Claude Desktop
 
 Add to your Claude Desktop MCP configuration:
 
+#### Finding Required IDs
+
+**Deal Owner Email** (for deal owner defaults):
+The `ATTIO_DEFAULT_DEAL_OWNER` should be set to the email address of the workspace member who should own new deals by default. This is typically your own email address or the email address of your sales team lead.
+
+```bash
+# Example:
+export ATTIO_DEFAULT_DEAL_OWNER="john.smith@company.com"
+```
+
+**Note**: The system will automatically resolve email addresses to workspace member references when creating deals.
+
+**Deal Stages**:
+Deal stages are specific to your workspace. Check your Attio workspace settings or use the `discover-attributes` command to find available stages for deals.

+**✅ Comprehensive Coverage:**
+
+- **Pagination Testing**: Validates `offset` parameter across all universal tools
+- **Field Filtering**: Tests `fields` parameter for selective data retrieval
+- **Tasks Integration**: Complete lifecycle testing for tasks resource type
+- **Cross-Resource Validation**: Ensures consistent behavior across companies, people, lists, tasks
+- **Error Handling**: Validates graceful error responses and edge cases
+- **Performance Monitoring**: Tracks execution times and API response sizes
+
+**🛠️ Enhanced Assertions (7 New Methods):**
+
+```typescript
+// Available in test/e2e/utils/assertions.ts
+expectValidPagination(result, params); // Validates pagination behavior
+expectFieldFiltering(result, fields); // Validates field selection
+expectValidTasksIntegration(result); // Tasks-specific validation
+expectSpecificError(result, errorType); // Typed error validation
+expectOptimalPerformance(result, budget); // Performance validation
+expectValidUniversalToolParams(params); // Parameter validation
+expectValidBatchOperation(result, records); // Batch operation validation
+```
+
+**📊 Performance Benchmarks:**
+
+- **Search Operations**: < 1000ms per API call
+- **CRUD Operations**: < 1500ms per operation
+- **Batch Operations**: < 3000ms for 10 records
+- **Field Filtering**: < 500ms additional overhead
+- **Pagination**: < 200ms additional per offset
+
+#### **Unit & Integration Tests**
+
+```bash
+# Unit Tests (no API required)
+npm test                    # Run all tests
+npm run test:offline        # Run only offline tests (206 tests)
+npm run test:watch          # Watch mode for development
+
+# Integration Tests (requires API key and test data)
+npm run test:integration    # Run all integration tests (15 tests, 100% pass rate)
+npm run setup:test-data     # Create test data in your workspace
+```
+
+#### **Test Environment Setup**
+
+For E2E and integration tests, you need:
+
+1. **Create `.env` file** in project root:
+
+```bash
+# Required for E2E/Integration tests
+ATTIO_API_KEY=your_64_character_api_key_here
+PORT=3000
+LOG_LEVEL=debug
+NODE_ENV=development
+```
+
+2. **Verify API key** format (must be exactly 64 characters)
+3. **Run tests** to validate setup:
+
+```bash
+npm run build && npm run test:integration
+```
+
+See the [Testing Guide](./docs/testing.md) and [E2E Troubleshooting Guide](./docs/testing/e2e-troubleshooting.md) for detailed setup instructions.
+
 ### **Available Scripts**
