Attio lists are membership containers and are always returned as static. Attio does not expose updated_at, updated_by, record_count, description, owner_id, folder_id, the favorite/default/system flags, custom_fields, or tags. visibility derives from Attio's workspace_access: workspace-wide access returns shared; member-scoped lists return private, even when the list is shared with several specific workspace members (Attio's per-member workspace_member_access grants are not surfaced as a separate value — private here means "not workspace-wide", not necessarily "single-owner only"). If a list is scoped to more than one record type, object_type reports only the first entry in Attio's parent_object array; additional scopes are not surfaced elsewhere. Attio's lists endpoint is not paginated downstream, so all lists are fetched in a single unbounded call on every page request and paginated virtually — limit and cursor work as normal and consumers should follow meta.cursors.next to page through the results, but a workspace with a very large number of lists may see slow responses since there is no server-side page size to cap the underlying fetch.
