/v1/shortlistsCreate a shortlist
shortlist:createCreate a shortlist. Duplicate live names are a conflict, except with projectId: the list is linked to that project on create and its name is made unique server-side, so the call never 409s on a name.
Request body CreateShortlistRequest
namestring requiredThe list name.
min 1 chars, max 80 charsdescriptionstringAn optional description of what the list is for.
max 280 charsprojectIdstringLink the new list to this project as it is created. The name is then made unique for you ("Backend · Worth a closer look (2)") instead of failing on a duplicate, and a list of that name already linked to the project is returned rather than created twice. Needs project:update as well.

kindstring requiredWhat kind of list this is: `project` for a list linked to a project you can read, `freestanding` for every other list. Seeing `project` needs project:read: without it a list linked to a project reads `freestanding` like any other. An API key or a connected AI client does not hold project:read.
