The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
append_to_note Append to a note (creates it if missing) ~188
Append text to the note with the given exact filename, creating the note if it does not exist yet (find-or-create). This is the primitive for logging: call it repeatedly to accumulate entries (AI session logs, cron output, journal lines) in one note addressed by a stable filename like "ai-sessions.txt". Plain text only.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| append_only | boolean | – | On first-touch creation only: lock the note append-only (default true). Ignored if the note already exists. |
| encrypt | boolean | – | Encrypt this entry locally with FRESHJOTS_PASSPHRASE before appending; on first-touch creation also marks the stream client-encrypted. Personal accounts only. |
| filename | string | yes | Exact filename to append to / create, e.g. "ai-sessions.txt". |
| text | string | yes | The text to append (added as a new entry). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
create_folder Create a folder ~38
Create a new folder. Folder names are unique (case-insensitive) within the account.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| name | string | yes | Name of the new folder. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
create_note Create a note ~152
Create a new plain-text note. The server derives the filename from the title. To create a note you can address later by an exact filename of your choosing, use append_to_note instead (it creates the note on first write). Plain text only.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| body | string | – | Plain-text body of the note. |
| encrypt | boolean | – | Encrypt the body locally with FRESHJOTS_PASSPHRASE before storing, and mark the note client-encrypted — Fresh Jots stores only ciphertext it cannot read. Personal accounts only. |
| folder_id | integer | – | Optional folder id to file the note under. |
| title | string | yes | Title of the note. The server derives the filename from it. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
delete_folder Delete a folder ~49
Delete a folder by its numeric id. Notes inside it are NOT deleted — they are moved out of the folder (un-filed).
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | integer | yes | Numeric id of the folder to delete. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
delete_note Delete a note ~48
Delete a note by its numeric id. Append-only notes cannot be deleted via the API. This cannot be undone through this server.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| id | integer | yes | Numeric id of the note to delete. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_folders List folders ~26
List all folders in the account (id, name, timestamps), ordered alphabetically.
Input schema present but exposes no named parameters.
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
list_notes List notes ~146
List the account's notes (most-recently-updated first by default) as summaries: id, filename, title, format, timestamps, and a body excerpt. Filter by folder or format. Both plain and rich notes are listed, but only plain notes can be created or edited through this server.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| folder_id | – | – | Folder id to filter by, or "none" for notes in no folder. |
| format | string | – | Filter by note format. |
| limit | integer | – | Max notes to return (default 50, max 200). |
| offset | integer | – | Pagination offset (default 0). |
| sort | string | – | Sort order (default "updated"). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
move_note Move a note to a folder ~75
Move a note (by numeric id) into a folder, or out of any folder. Pass a folder_id to file it there, or null to un-file it.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| folder_id | – | yes | Target folder id, or null to remove the note from its folder. |
| id | integer | yes | Numeric id of the note to move. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
read_note Read a note ~122
Read a single note in full (including its complete plain_body) by exact filename (e.g. "ai-sessions.txt") or numeric id. Provide exactly one of filename or id.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| decrypt | boolean | – | Decrypt the returned plain_body locally with FRESHJOTS_PASSPHRASE (for notes stored client-encrypted). fj1: lines are decrypted; other lines pass through. |
| filename | string | – | Exact filename of the note (preferred addressing). |
| id | integer | – | Numeric note id (e.g. from list_notes). |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.

| id | integer | yes | Numeric id of the folder. |
| name | string | yes | New folder name. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
update_note Update a note ~150
Update a plain-text note's title, body, and/or folder, addressed by exact filename or numeric id. Only the fields you supply change; omitted fields are left untouched. Rich-format and append-only notes reject body/title edits. Provide exactly one of filename or id.
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| body | string | – | New full plain-text body (replaces the existing body; omit to leave unchanged). |
| filename | string | – | Exact filename of the note to update. |
