Forward a message

cooper_forward_message
Destructive

Use this when you need to forward a stored message to someone else, including a forwarded header block and the original attachments, on a new thread. Requires auth. Sends real email. Inputs: inbox_id (required; inbox id, username, or email), message_id (required), to (required; recipient addresses), cc, bcc, subject (optional; default is Fwd: plus the original subject unless it already starts with fwd: or fw:), text, html, include_attachments (optional; default true), include_signature (optional boolean; default true; false skips the inbox signature), client_id (optional idempotency key; a retry returns the original message and does not send again). The signature is placed above the forwarded original. Returns the stored message with a new thread_id. Fails with 400 missing_to, 400 attachments_too_large when copied attachments exceed 10 files, 4 MiB each, or 5 MiB total, 403 recipient_blocked, 403 recipient_suppressed, 403 inbox_paused, 403 sending_paused, 404 message_not_found, 404 inbox_not_found, or 402 when the monthly send limit is reached. Sending resumes automatically when the trailing 7-day rate falls below the pause threshold.

Input Schema

NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
ccNoCc addresses
toYesRecipient email addresses
bccNoBcc addresses
htmlNoOptional HTML note placed before the forwarded block
textNoOptional note placed before the forwarded block
subjectNoSubject line. Omit to use Fwd: plus the original subject, unless it already starts with fwd: or fw:.
inbox_idYesInbox id (inb_…), username, or full email address
client_idNoOptional idempotency key. Reuse it to get the original forward instead of sending twice.
message_idYesMessage id (msg_…) to forward
include_signatureNoUse this when this forward should skip the inbox signature. Default true. false sends the body as written.
include_attachmentsNoCopy the original attachments. Default true. Over the size caps returns attachments_too_large.

TDQS

A4.3/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Beyond the annotations (which already declare destructive, open-world, non-idempotent), it discloses that real email is sent, auth is required, the signature is placed above the forwarded block, attachment size caps, and that retries with the same client_id do not resend. It enumerates failure codes and pause-recovery behavior, though it does not describe the returned payload's fields in detail.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness3/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The content is front-loaded and useful, but it is delivered as one very long paragraph mixing purpose, parameters, return value, and a dozen error codes; the error-code enumeration in particular is low-density for the space it consumes.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

For an 11-parameter, destructive, open-world send operation, the description covers triggering conditions, defaults, side effects, idempotency, error recovery, and the return value (stored message with a new thread_id); an output schema exists so return details need not be spelled out further.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters4/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Schema coverage is 100%, so baseline would be 3; the description earns extra credit by adding meaning not in the schema, such as where the signature sits relative to the forwarded original and the aggregate cap logic for copied attachments.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose5/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description opens with a specific verb plus resource ('forward a stored message to someone else') and adds the key scoping detail 'on a new thread', which distinguishes it from reply/send siblings without needing to name them.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines4/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

'Use this when you need to forward a stored message' gives clear triggering context and the 'new thread' phrasing implicitly separates it from replying in-thread, but no alternative tool is named explicitly for cases where a reply or fresh send is actually wanted.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.
