Usage Examples
These examples will give you some ideas of what you can ask your AI once it's connected to your Readwise and Reader data. Each prompt works with the MCP server or the CLI. (If you're using the CLI, you can also try using the built-in skills.)
Prompt Examples
Copy any prompt and paste it directly into your AI app, or use it as a starting point and adapt it to your needs.
Triage your inbox
Triage my Reader inbox. Show me the 10 newest items in a table with links, tell me which are worth reading and why, and offer to move the rest to my archive.
Get a weekly digest
Give me a digest of everything saved to my library in the last week. Cluster the items by theme in a table with links and summarize what's interesting.
Quiz yourself
Pick one of my recently archived articles and quiz me on it with multiple-choice questions. Grade my answers and tell me what I missed.
Get reading recommendations
Look at my recent highlights and reading history, then recommend 3 items from my library I should read next. I have about 20 minutes.
Organize your library
Help me organize my Reader inbox. For each item, suggest tags and whether to shortlist, save for later, or archive it. Ask me before making changes.
