Browse archive — With a kind, the most recent entries of it. Without one, what kinds are archived and how much of each

Search archive — Search everything this instance has collected, across news, video, markets and posts at once. Use it when the question crosses a service, or when you do not know which service would hold the answer; news_search is narrower and better when you know it is news

Create blog — Publish a post to the caller's blog. For anything meant to be read later by other people — notes, write-ups, announcements. For a private note to yourself, prefer files or memory

Delete blog — Delete one of the caller's own blog posts, by id or title. Refuses posts written by anyone else, and refuses an ambiguous title rather than guessing. Irreversible, so confirm with the user first

Browse bookmarks — Find your saved reading by text or kind, newest first. Private notes are searched too

Read browser — Open a page in a real browser and read it after its JavaScript has run. Use it when web_fetch comes back empty or with only a nav bar, which is what a page that builds itself in the browser looks like to a plain fetch. web_fetch is free and is the right first try; this costs, because it runs a browser

Shot browser — Photograph a page and get back a URL for the picture. What it looks like, rather than what it says — a chart, a layout, a page whose content is an image. Ask for full to capture past the first screenful

Messages chat — Read the recent conversation in a discussion room

Rooms chat — List discussion rooms that currently have activity

Send chat — Say something in a discussion room, as the caller. Use chat_rooms to find the room id

Find free time — Find when the caller has nothing booked — open slots of a given length, within working hours

Store files — Store a file and get a URL for it — a report, a CSV, a transcript

Share files — Make a file readable by anyone with its URL, or private again

Airport flights — Report what is happening at an airport right now: what is on the ground, what is on approach and what is climbing out. Live positions, not the timetable, so it says nothing about scheduled or delayed departures

Overhead flights — List the aircraft flying near a location right now, nearest first, with altitude, speed, heading and distance. Live positions broadcast by the aircraft themselves, not a schedule

Status flights — Scheduled, estimated and actual flight arrival/departure times from Aviationstack. Requires a configured provider.

Track flights — Find where an aircraft is right now by flight number ('BA117'), radio callsign ('BAW117') or registration ('G-ZBKL'). Only sees aeroplanes that are airborne and in range of a receiver — not finding one does not mean the flight was cancelled

Hygiene food — Food hygiene ratings for UK businesses, from the Food Standards Agency inspections. Takes a business name, a town or postcode, or a lat/lon to look around

Floods hazards — Flood warnings and alerts in force in England, most severe first, from the Environment Agency. The one hazard here that is a forecast rather than a record — a warning says flooding is expected, which is something you can act on. Optionally near a point. England only, and the answer says so

Quakes hazards — Recent earthquakes worldwide from the USGS, with magnitude, place and how long ago. Pass lat/lon to ask about somewhere in particular, min for a magnitude floor, and period for hour, day, week or month

Gmailsearch mail — Search the caller's connected Gmail. Read-only; connect in Account first.

Read mail — List the account's most recent messages — read my mail, check my inbox

Info mail — How to reach the caller here: the handle, the email address if this instance has a mail domain, and whether mail from outside can arrive at all. Pass a tag for a separate one (you+tag) — give that out, then read only its messages with mail_inbox(tag)

Markread mail — Mark specified inbox message IDs, or explicitly all current inbox messages, as read. Changes read status only; does not read, summarize or triage the content.

Read mail — Read your correspondence by id in bounded body-character pages, including attachment names. Follow the returned next offset for the rest. Omitting id retains the legacy inbox summary

Search mail — Search the account's mail and return matching messages

Send mail — Write to somebody, as you. A username reaches them on this instance and is free; a full email address leaves over SMTP under this instance's domain, so a reply comes back to your inbox, and is charged. Resolve a name with contacts_find first. Mail that leaves needs MAIL_DOMAIN configured on the instance

Area maps — Every tile covering a bounding box at a zoom level, as URLs, row by row from the north-west, and how many are already held. What to ask for when you want the map around a place rather than one numbered tile

Tile maps — The URL for one map tile, by zoom, column and row. Styles: road, outdoor (rights of way and contours), light (a quiet basemap to draw on). Free. Britain only

Convert markets — Convert an amount from one currency to another — 250 GBP in JPY. Uses European Central Bank reference rates, and takes a past date back to 1999. Crypto converts at the live price through the dollar

Browse notes — List every note the caller has written, with its text

Devices notify — Whether this account can be reached by notification at all, and on which devices. Worth asking before promising to tell somebody something

Send notify — Interrupt yourself on your own devices — a phone, a laptop — with the page closed. For the thing that cannot wait until the next time somebody looks. An answer to a question belongs in the thread it was asked in, not here

Get an email address — Name the place at a latitude and longitude — the reverse of places_geocode. Use it whenever you have coordinates and need to say where that is

Elevation places — How high a place is above sea level, in metres and feet. Sampled from a 90-metre global elevation model, so a summit reads a little under its surveyed height

Geocode places — Resolve a place name or address to coordinates

Find nearby places — List points of interest near a location. Each one says whether it is open right now where that is known, so "is anything open near me" is one call

Search places — Find places by name or category, optionally near a location. Each one says whether it is open right now where that is known, rather than raw opening-hours text to interpret

Qibla for prayer — Get the qibla — the compass bearing to face for Islamic prayer from a location

Browse recall — List the caller's conversations, most recently active first, with what each is about and where it happened

Search recall — Search everything the caller has said to an agent and been told, wherever they said it — the browser, email, or the command line. Use it when something was mentioned and you need to find where; notes_get is for a fact somebody wrote down on purpose

Directions routes — The turn-by-turn route between two places, with the distance for each instruction. Use ETA instead when only the travel time is wanted — this asks the provider for more and costs more

Travel time — How long it takes to travel between two places, by road rather than as the crow flies. Can be asked about a future departure, or told when you need to arrive and answer when to leave

Nearest routes — Given a starting point and several destinations, say which is quickest to reach and put them in order. Each destination is a separate routing lookup, so ask about the places you are actually choosing between rather than a long list

Run shell — Run a shell command in your account's container sandbox and get back what it wrote. A real shell in a container: pipes, redirection and && all work, the working directory is /work and files there persist between calls. Use it to build, test, run scripts and move files about. A non-zero exit code comes back in the response rather than as an error, so read the output — a failing build is an answer

Write shell — Put a file in your account's container sandbox, creating any missing directories. The only file operation that is not a shell command, because it is the one a shell is bad at: source is full of quotes and backticks and a heredoc will mangle it. The content arrives as a string and reaches the file without a shell seeing it. To read, list, search or change a file, use the shell — cat, ls, grep and sed are right there

History sms — Read the texts this account has sent and received, newest first. Both directions, which is why it is not called an inbox

Number sms — The number texts are sent from, which numbers are verified as yours, and how many messages are left today

Send sms — Message somebody from this instance's number, by text or on WhatsApp. A text is charged per 160-character segment; WhatsApp is charged per 24-hour conversation and only reaches somebody who wrote in within the last day. Capped per day either way, and the recipient can stop it with STOP

Verify sms — Claim a number as your own, so texts arriving from it reach this account. Call it with just the number to have a code texted there, then again with the code

Search social — Search public posts on this instance by keyword. This is the instance's own feed, not the wider internet — use web_search for that

Arrivals transit — What is due at a stop and when. Takes a stop name or an id. In London this is live from TfL — buses, tube, DLR, Overground and Elizabeth line. Elsewhere it is the published timetable, and says so

Buses transit — Where the buses actually are near a point right now — line, where each is heading and how far away, nearest first. England, from the Bus Open Data Service. This is position rather than prediction: it says what is moving, not when it reaches you

Feeds transit — Which published timetables this instance carries, and which others it could — with the size of each, so an operator can see what switching one on costs. Also names the feeds that look right but whose timetables have run out

Find nearby transit — Bus stops and stations near a point, nearest first, with the id each one is called by. London live from TfL; elsewhere from whichever published timetables this instance has loaded

Status transit — Which lines are delayed, part-suspended or closed right now, and why. London only

Get an email address — Your own address on Base, to receive USDC. Created the first time you ask. Funds sent on any other chain land at the same address there and cannot be reached from here

Check wallet — What your wallet holds in USDC on Base. Says so plainly when the chain could not be reached, because that is not the same as holding nothing

Air weather — Air quality at a location right now — AQI, PM2.5, PM10, ozone, nitrogen dioxide, UV index, and pollen where it is counted

Forecast weather — Get the weather forecast for a location — current conditions, the days ahead, and today's sunrise, sunset and how much daylight is left, which is the fact that decides an afternoon outdoors

Arrivals transit — What is due at a stop and when. Takes a stop name or an id. In London this is live from TfL — buses, tube, DLR, Overground and Elizabeth line. Elsewhere it is the published timetable, and says so

Buses transit — Where the buses actually are near a point right now — line, where each is heading and how far away, nearest first. England, from the Bus Open Data Service. This is position rather than prediction: it says what is moving, not when it reaches you

Feeds transit — Which published timetables this instance carries, and which others it could — with the size of each, so an operator can see what switching one on costs. Also names the feeds that look right but whose timetables have run out

Find nearby transit — Bus stops and stations near a point, nearest first, with the id each one is called by. London live from TfL; elsewhere from whichever published timetables this instance has loaded

Status transit — Which lines are delayed, part-suspended or closed right now, and why. London only
