Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
open_archiveA

Index an .mbox file (Google Takeout, Thunderbird) or a directory of .eml files — entirely locally, nothing leaves the machine. Returns message count, date range, and top senders. Large archives are indexed once and cached.

search_messagesA

Search indexed envelopes (from/to/subject/date). query matches sender and subject. body_query additionally full-parses candidate messages to search body text — it is capped, so narrow with sender/date filters first; the result reports how many candidates were scanned.

get_messageA

Fully parse one message by its id (from search_messages): headers, decoded text body (truncated if huge), and attachment names/types/sizes. Attachment contents are never returned.

Prompts

Interactive templates invoked by user choice
