Tools

Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions

NameDescription
dropbox_restoreA

Restore a deleted file from Dropbox's server-side history. Finds the most recent revision and restores it.

dropbox_restore_batchA

Restore multiple deleted files from Dropbox history.

dropbox_restore_revisionB

Restore a specific revision of a file by revision ID.

dropbox_downloadA

Force-download a file from Dropbox servers to the local Dropbox folder. Useful when Smart Sync keeps files cloud-only.

dropbox_uploadA

Upload a local file to Dropbox (single file, atomic). Source defaults to the local Dropbox-folder mirror of path; pass local_path to upload an arbitrary local file. Mode 'add' (default) fails if the destination exists; 'overwrite' replaces it. Files larger than 150 MB are rejected (Dropbox requires a chunked upload session for those — use the desktop client). For bulk uploads of many files, use the dropbox skill's dbx_sync.py instead.

dropbox_moveA

Move or rename a file or folder on Dropbox server-side (no download/re-upload). Use for cross-folder relocation or renaming. Set autorename=true to auto-rename instead of failing when the destination already exists.

dropbox_deleteA

Delete a file or folder on Dropbox. The item moves to Dropbox trash and is recoverable via dropbox_restore for ~30 days (longer on some plans). Deleting a folder removes all of its contents. Confirm intent before deleting folders.

dropbox_searchA

Search for files on Dropbox by name or content. Returns results with path, size, and modified date.

dropbox_list_deletedA

List recently deleted files in a Dropbox folder. Shows files that can be restored.

dropbox_file_infoB

Get metadata for a file on Dropbox servers: size, modified date, revision, content hash.

dropbox_list_revisionsA

List all available revisions of a file. Useful for finding older versions to restore.
