ask_this_briefAsk a question about the entitled Brief (5m current day for guests; Public preview only until follow; archive if canReadArchive). Returns a grounded answer + citations, then highlights matching stories/sources. Not a Brief digest (use get_latest_brief). No web search, no new Brief.

clear_highlightsRemove agent paint and notes. Restores the page.

copy_share_linkReturn the canonical Topic URL to share. Read-only; does not send email.

create_topicCreate a private custom Topic via the API (paid plan + 1 credit). Queues the first Brief; poll get_topic_generation_status. Free / no-credit fail like the app. Confirms in-page. Does not fill the /topics/new form (that is start_create_topic).

explain_fiveminutebriefExplain FiveMinuteBrief (5m, Public, and Custom Topics) and return /public-topics, /plans, and /signup URLs.

follow_public_topicFollow a 5m or Public Topic (uses a follow slot). Guests must start_login. Slot limits return PLAN_LIMIT. Confirms in-page.

get_brief_newsletterShareable copy plus canonical URL. Full copy when entitled (5m current day, follow, or private owner). Preview copy if you are not following a Public Topic.

get_latest_briefFull Brief digest + URL. 5m: current day for everyone; pass dateKey only if you follow (archive). Public: full only while following — otherwise use get_public_topic_preview. Private custom: owner only. No brief.debug.

get_podcast_episodeLatest episode this viewer may hear: title, date, duration, listen URL, enclosure. 5m guests get ?variant=public (ad). Followers/owners get the private file. Not the archive.

get_public_topicTopic metadata: description, cover, Brief/preview availability, archive + podcast access. Private Topics: owner only.

get_public_topic_previewPreview a user-made Public Topic (not 5m): takeaway, top story titles, source count, follow CTA. Not the full Brief.

get_topic_generation_statusqueued / generating / ready / failed / sparse for a Topic’s first Brief. Poll after create_topic. Sign-in required.

list_my_topicsDashboard Topics you own or follow (private custom included): generation status and latest card take. Sign-in required.
