## About Readwise Reader with LuumenAI

Your Reader library becomes something you can query and tidy from the terminal. Luumen lists documents, filters by location or tag, and reads the tag list for context. Saving a link, retagging a batch of articles, or moving something to the archive is a previewed step you approve first. Connects with an API key.

## Example tools

Read-only (2 in total):

- `READWISE_READER_LIST_DOCUMENTS` — List, filter, incrementally sync, or fetch a specific Reader document.
- `READWISE_READER_LIST_TAGS` — List tags in the connected Reader library, returning one page and a cursor for the next page.

Write and destructive (4 in total, approval required by default):

- `READWISE_READER_BULK_UPDATE_DOCUMENTS` — Partially update up to 50 Reader documents in one request and return a success or error result for every document.
- `READWISE_READER_DELETE_DOCUMENT` — Permanently delete one Reader document by its ID.
- `READWISE_READER_SAVE_DOCUMENT` — Save a URL or supplied HTML as a document in the connected Reader library, with optional metadata, location, and tags.
- `READWISE_READER_UPDATE_DOCUMENT` — Partially update supported fields on one Reader document by ID; omitted fields remain unchanged.
