mailbox.bot

Get your agent's real mailing address: street address + mailbox number (PMB) at the Manhattan Beach, CA facility. The PMB number is assigned after USPS Form 1583 verification. For inbound context from addresses the operator already uses, use list_inbound_forwarding_addresses instead; that returns a private intake alias for scans, PDFs, photos, provider notices, and notes from addresses the operato

Get usage summary, billing events, and prepaid credit balance for a time period. Returns itemized events (scans, forwards, mail sends) with costs, period totals, and credits. Defaults to the current billing period if no dates are specified. Use this in Cursor/MCP chat when the human asks how many mailbox.bot credits are left; answer with the prepaid balance and explain that only the signed-in huma

List the renter’s private inbound forwarding aliases on forward.mailbox.bot. These are the unique intake email addresses an operator, assistant, provider, or external agent can forward scans, PDFs, photos, provider notices, notes, and other context-aware documents to so mailbox.bot can build OCR-backed inbound context. Forwarding/emailing attachments here initiates OCR/extraction; this tool discov

List forwarded inbound mail items captured from private forwarding aliases. Default output includes compact draft_context so an LLM or external agent can reason about OCR context, reply contact candidates, deadlines, and thread linkage before generating outbound mail.

Get one forwarded inbound mail item with compact draft_context by default. Use this before drafting an outbound reply when you need sender context, reply contact candidates, deadline clues, source files, and thread linkage in one stable payload.

List physical-mail threads that group inbound mail context, human review, and outbound sends. Use this to understand which inbound items and outbound documents belong to the same business workflow.

Get one physical-mail thread with optional timeline events. Use this to explain how a generated outbound mail piece relates back to prior inbound scans and review decisions.

Get the renter's MAILBOX.md standing instructions for this agent. Returns the full instruction text, version number, content hash, and last update timestamp. Call this on startup and cache the version — you must pass it to send_outbound_mail for sync verification.

Propose changes to the renter's MAILBOX.md instructions with reasoning. The renter will see your suggestion in their dashboard and can accept, reject, or modify it. Use this when you observe patterns that could be codified into standing instructions.

Send a message to the operator at your mailbox facility. Facility routing is automatic. Messages appear in the shared conversation visible to you, the renter, and the facility. Optionally link the message to a specific package or action request for context.

List your conversation with your mailbox facility, including its unread message count and last message preview. Facility routing is automatic.

Read the message thread with your mailbox facility. Facility routing is automatic. Returns messages in reverse chronological order with sender role (member, facility, agent). Supports cursor-based pagination. Automatically marks facility messages as read.

Configure webhook endpoint URL and event subscriptions for real-time notifications. Outbound events are mail.pending_approval, mail.submitted, mail.ready, mail.mailed, mail.delivered, mail.failed, and mail.cancelled. Canonical physical-custody events are inbound.received and inbound.scan_available. The endpoint must use HTTPS and respond with 2xx within 10 seconds.

Submit a document for printing and postal mailing by the facility. Supported formats: PDF, DOCX, JPG, PNG, TXT, CSV. The document is stored securely and printed by the facility operator. USPS First-Class Mail has a published $2.00 one-page baseline. Extra pages add configured printing plus any postage increase from weight. If an account's normal first-page formula is lower, cost_breakdown.first_cl

List outbound mail jobs with status tracking. Returns mail ID, recipient, mail class, status, cost, timestamps, and failure metadata. Filter by status, created_at date range, or search recipient/address/tracking/agent notes.

Get full details of an outbound mail job including recipient address, mail class, page count, cost breakdown, current status, failure metadata, document metadata, and fulfillment photos. Legacy plaintext records may include direct document URLs; encrypted source documents are retrieved through the REST document endpoint with document.read scope.

Cancel a queued outbound mail job before facility printing starts. If the mail was funded with prepaid credits, eligible credits are returned to the member ledger. Safe to retry: already-cancelled mail returns cancelled status without creating a duplicate refund. In chat, report cancellation status, returned credits, updated balance, and whether it had already been cancelled. If a transient error

Create a sandbox outbound mail record without uploading a real document. The record is always test_mode=true, cost_cents=0, includes estimated_live_cost_cents and cost_breakdown, and queues a mail.submitted webhook. USPS First-Class Mail has a published $2.00 one-page baseline. Extra pages add configured printing plus any postage increase from weight. If an account's normal first-page formula is l

Advance a test_mode outbound mail record one lifecycle step and queue the matching webhook. submitted becomes ready with simulated pages/envelope photos; ready becomes mailed with carrier, dispatch method, receipt photo, and tracking when the selected service includes tracking; mailed becomes delivered.
