Action
List spaces
Lists all spaces that the authenticated user has access to in contentful. this is a fundamental operation needed before performing any other content management actions since most operations require a space id.
Why this helps

- Reduces onboarding questions
- Creates a shared starting point
- Keeps space discovery in Slack
