Tools & capabilities

Leteo tools

No tool names declared yet. Check the project README from the listing page.

Minutes tools 34

  • start_recordingStart recording audio with call-aware preflight. When a known call app is active, Minutes can infer call intent and block silent mic-only call captures unless explicitly allowed. Note: this server does not listen to audio content. Recordings are stopped by invoking stop_recording after the user types a request in chat — never promise the user they can speak a 'stop recording' voice command. Docs: https://useminutes.app/docs/mcp/tools#tool-start_recording
  • stop_recordingStop the current recording and process it (transcribe, diarize, summarize). Docs: https://useminutes.app/docs/mcp/tools#tool-stop_recording
  • get_statusCheck if a recording is currently in progress. Docs: https://useminutes.app/docs/mcp/tools#tool-get_status
  • list_processing_jobsList background processing jobs for recent recordings, including queued, transcript-ready, needs-review, failed, and completed work. Docs: https://useminutes.app/docs/mcp/tools#tool-list_processing_jobs
  • list_meetingsList recent meetings and voice memos. Restricted meetings are excluded. An override requires both an operator launch grant and include_restricted=true, and is durably audited. Docs: https://useminutes.app/docs/mcp/tools#tool-list_meetings
  • search_meetingsSearch meeting transcripts and voice memos. Restricted meetings are excluded. An override requires both an operator launch grant and include_restricted=true, and is durably audited. Docs: https://useminutes.app/docs/mcp/tools#tool-search_meetings
  • activity_summarySummarize meeting-adjacent desktop context bound to one exact normal meeting source. Docs: https://useminutes.app/docs/mcp/tools#tool-activity_summary
  • search_contextSearch desktop-context events bound to one exact normal meeting source. Docs: https://useminutes.app/docs/mcp/tools#tool-search_context
  • get_momentShow the local rewind bound to one exact normal meeting source. Docs: https://useminutes.app/docs/mcp/tools#tool-get_moment
  • get_screen_contextRetrieve up to three verified PNG screenshots bound to one exact normal meeting source, optionally nearest a timestamp. Docs: https://useminutes.app/docs/mcp/tools#tool-get_screen_context
  • consistency_reportFlag conflicting decisions and stale commitments across meetings using structured intent data. Meetings designated `sensitivity: restricted` are always excluded from this report. Docs: https://useminutes.app/docs/mcp/tools#tool-consistency_report
  • get_person_profileGet a relationship profile derived from live, policy-authorized meeting snapshots within the supported corpus bounds. Restricted meetings are excluded unless an operator launch grant plus include_restricted=true is durably audited. Docs: https://useminutes.app/docs/mcp/tools#tool-get_person_profile
