# Filter: gk/block-mcp/pattern/synced-query-limit

Set how many synced patterns the API recognizes per query.

This cap governs both the synced-pattern listing and the reference counts that decide which patterns are "in use," so the two always agree on the same set. If your site runs a large, actively used pattern library and some patterns aren't showing up, raise this so the full set is acknowledged.

## Parameters

| Name | Type | Description |
|------|------|-------------|
| $limit | `int` | Maximum number of synced patterns acknowledged per query. Default 500. |

## Example

// Recognize up to 1,500 synced patterns on a pattern-heavy site.

```php
add_filter( 'gk/block-mcp/pattern/synced-query-limit', function () {
    return 1500;
} );
```
