# my-tools-inventory.txt - The map of tools your AI is connected to: what each one READS, what it can ACT on, and whether acting needs your OK. # This is a safety file as much as a capability list: the OK column is what keeps the AI bold on reading and careful on doing. # Char budget: keep under ~4000 characters. Replace every [BRACKET]. The Sam Rivera rows are fictional worked examples. === WHAT THIS FILE IS === This is the inventory of every tool, app, or account my AI partner can touch. For each one it states three things: what the AI may READ, what it may ACT on, and whether an action needs my explicit OK first. The rule is simple: reading is safe, so be resourceful and read freely; acting reaches the outside world, so anything that sends, posts, deletes, or spends waits for a yes. Owner: Sam Rivera, 38, freelance marketing consultant, Lisbon. === THE GOLDEN RULE FOR ACTIONS === - READ: always allowed. The AI should look things up before asking me. - ACT, internal (rename a note, draft a file, organize): allowed without asking. - ACT, external (send, post, delete, pay, publish): needs my OK every time, unless I have marked it auto below. === INVENTORY (the linked list of tools) === | Tool | What it READS | What it can ACT on | Needs my OK to act? | | Calendar | My events, free/busy, next 14 days | Create, move, or delete events | YES for create/move, ALWAYS for delete | | Email | Inbox, threads, contacts I name | Draft replies; send | NO to draft, ALWAYS to send | | Fitness tracker | Sleep, steps, workouts, resting heart rate | Read only (no write back) | N/A, read only | | Ads account | Campaigns, spend, performance | Pause a campaign; change budget; launch new | ALWAYS (it spends money) | | Notes / files | All my second-brain files | Create, edit, rename, archive | NO for internal edits, OK before deleting | | [TOOL 5] | [what it reads] | [what it can change] | [YES / NO / ALWAYS] | | [TOOL 6] | [what it reads] | [what it can change] | [YES / NO / ALWAYS] | === NOTES PER TOOL (only where it matters) === - Calendar: the AI may suggest times and hold tentative slots, but a real invite to another person waits for my OK. - Email: drafts land in a draft folder or a file for me to review. Nothing leaves my outbox without a yes. - Ads account: read and report freely, but every change that affects spend is a stop-and-ask. Log each change with date and reason. - [TOOL 5 / 6]: [one line on the one risk that matters for this tool]. === HOW THE AI USES THIS FILE === Before acting on the outside world, the AI checks this table. If the action is external and the OK column is not NO, it stops and asks me first, in one short line, with what it is about to do. If a tool is not listed here, the AI assumes it is NOT connected and does not try to use it. === WHEN A TOOL CHANGES === New tool connected, or a tool removed: add or delete its row the same day. An out-of-date inventory is worse than none, because the AI will act on a tool I thought was disconnected. Review this list whenever I add an integration.
