Do I need Mail.app running to check emails?

Yes, the mail-unread helper script requires the macOS Mail application to be active to retrieve unread message data.

Does this skill require special permissions?

Yes, macOS will prompt for Full Disk Access or specific app permissions (Calendar, Contacts) when the helper scripts are first executed by the Bash tool.

How does Voice Memo transcription work?

It uses the AssemblyAI API to transcribe recordings from the iCloud Voice Memos database, supporting speaker identification and key phrase extraction.

Can Claude send iMessages or emails automatically?

No, the skill is strictly configured to require manual user confirmation via the AskUserQuestion tool before any data-modifying action is taken.

Is my data shared with third parties?

Productivity data remains local on your machine. Only Voice Memos are sent to AssemblyAI for processing if you choose to use the transcription feature.
