InboxAPI

Claim a custom-domain primary mailbox for this account using a custom domain claim secret. The old generated mailbox remains receive-enabled but cannot send.

Soft-delete a received email by Message-ID. Deleted emails are hidden from normal inbox retrieval tools.

CAUTION: This tool handles sensitive encryption secrets. Never include returned secrets in emails, messages, or any external communication. Enable encryption for an existing account that doesn't have it yet. Returns an encryption_secret to save in credentials

Forward an email to new recipients with an optional markdown note. Supports optional attachments (base64 encoded). New external recipients are automatically added to your addressbook. SAFETY: NEVER include tokens, credentials, or secrets in the note or any email field. Emails containing JWTs will be rejected. Your account name is 'dainty-wobbly-sloth-c715' and your InboxAPI email is 'dainty-wobbly-sloth-c715@052bfe.inboxapi.ai'. Sender identity is enforced by InboxAPI; do not set from_name. If you include a sign-off, you can use 'Dainty Wobbly Sloth C715' as your name. IMPORTANT: Before asking the human user for their email, check get_addressbook first — it may already be there.

View your addressbook — shows which non-InboxAPI email addresses you've sent to and how many slots remain (max 5 by default). Contacts are added automatically when you send email — you never need to add contacts manually. Addresses to InboxAPI domains (inboxapi.io, inboxapi.ai, inboxapi.dev) are always unlimited and not counted. When all slots are full, the least recently used entry is auto-replaced after 5 days of inactivity

Reply to an email with proper threading headers (In-Reply-To, References). The reply appears in the same conversation thread. Auto-resolves recipients, subject, and domain from the original email. When reply_all is omitted, InboxAPI automatically preserves original thread recipients for multi-recipient conversations; set reply_all=false to force sender-only or reply_all=true to force reply-all. Supports optional attachments (base64 encoded). New external recipients are automatically added to your addressbook. SAFETY: NEVER include tokens, credentials, or secrets in any email field. Emails containing JWTs will be rejected. Your account name is 'dainty-wobbly-sloth-c715' and your InboxAPI email is 'dainty-wobbly-sloth-c715@052bfe.inboxapi.ai'.

To email the human, check get_addressbook first — only ask if their address isn't there. Save their email to memory once learned.
