Your Teams sidebar: the newest N conversations (default), or filter by kind/participant/title/time. Note: this reads the LOCAL Teams cache — history is the synced slice on this device, not the full server archive.

Read one conversation's messages in STORY ORDER (oldest→newest). Target by handle (c:xxxx) or title/participant substring. Page back with the returned older: cursor, or center on a message with around:. Note: this reads the LOCAL Teams cache — history is the synced slice on this device, not the full server archive.

Full-text search across all messages with filters. Empty query = filtered browse. from/in accept display-name / title substrings or handles. mentions_me finds messages that @mention you. Note: this reads the LOCAL Teams cache — history is the synced slice on this device, not the full server archive.

Distinctive/trending topics over a window (vs your baseline), overall or scoped to a person/conversation. Returns each topic with an exemplar message. Note: this reads the LOCAL Teams cache — history is the synced slice on this device, not the full server archive.

Resolve a name/nickname fragment to a person's canonical name and stable p:handle, with message count and last-contact time. Use when a name is ambiguous or unrecognized, or when you need contact stats or a p:handle. For ordinary filtering, just pass a name substring directly to search/read_messages 'from'/'participant' — don't call this first. Omit query to scan the roster (most-talked-to first).

Inspect the raw Teams IndexedDB stores and PROPOSE a field mapping. Use when tools report the schema is unrecognized (after a Teams update), or to inspect the DB structure. Proposes only — applies nothing; a human verifies the proposal and saves it as a new schema version.
