Tools
Functions exposed to the LLM to take actions
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
| search_emailsA | Search Mail.app messages via the Envelope Index database. Returns rich metadata including RFC message-id (usable with read_email, reply_to_email, set_message_flags). |
| read_emailA | Read full body of a message by its RFC message-id. Uses Mail.app via AppleScript so it works for IMAP/iCloud/Exchange messages without filesystem access. |
| list_accounts_and_mailboxesA | List all configured Mail.app accounts and their mailboxes with unread counts. |
| list_recentB | List recent messages in a mailbox of a specific account. |
| send_emailB | Send a new email via Mail.app from an existing account. |
| reply_to_emailA | Reply to an existing message identified by RFC message-id. |
| set_message_flagsA | Set read and/or flagged status on a message identified by RFC message-id. |
| move_emailA | Move a message to a different mailbox by RFC message-id. Use list_accounts_and_mailboxes to get exact mailbox names. |
| trash_emailA | Move a message to Deleted Messages (trash) by RFC message-id. Does not permanently delete. |
| create_mailboxB | Create a new mailbox (folder) in a Mail.app account. |
| bulk_mark_readA | Mark multiple messages as read in one call — by mailbox, sender substring, or both. Far faster than calling set_message_flags per message. |
| get_unsubscribe_linkA | Extract unsubscribe URLs from a message — checks the List-Unsubscribe header first (reliable), then scans the plain-text body as a fallback. |
| list_sendersA | Return a grouped count of senders in a mailbox — who sends how many messages, how many are unread, and when the last arrived. Ideal for identifying bulk senders and noise. |
| empty_mailboxA | Delete every message in a mailbox at once — moves to Deleted Messages, or permanently removes if the mailbox is already Deleted Messages/Trash. Use for Junk, Trash, or bulk-cleanup folders. |
