Tools

get_listening_history

ChatGPT

Read the linked account’s actual Stoa listening history and saved course position. Use BEFORE answering what the user previously listened to, replaying their last lesson, resuming a course, or recommending their next Stoa exercise. Returns recent recorded listens across Stoa, replay IDs, pagination, and a continuation based on saved course position or the first unlistened session. Content outside the curated player catalog is identified with Stoa links. Requires account linking and explicit history permission, not a subscription. An authentication or service error is NOT empty history; explain it and offer linking/retry. Never infer an audio timestamp or claim this read changes progress.

get_playback_source

ChatGPT

App-only: re-check access for one recording and return a fresh signed media source. The source URL is delivered to the player only, never to the conversation.

lookup_stoic_concept

ChatGPT

Look up a term in Stoa’s written Essential Stoic Concepts glossary. Use for definitions such as assent, preferred indifferents, or eudaimonia, or query glossary to list terms. Returns source-reviewed summaries, source links, and optional reflection questions. This is written reference material; it does not open an audio player or record progress. Send only the term, not the user’s personal story. Cite the source link; these summaries are paraphrases.

open_practice

ChatGPT

Open one practice in the inline Stoa player (paused until the user presses Play). Returns canonical details and access state. Pass the recording_id from search to preserve the chosen duration; omit it only when no duration was chosen.

record_playback_events

ChatGPT

App-only, idempotent playback events. A playback_completed event from a linked Stoa account is credited as a listen toward the Stoa streak; other events are optional telemetry. Course progress is never changed.

search_practices

ChatGPT

Search the curated Stoa catalog of guided Stoic meditations (morning and evening reflections), 3 Weeks of Stoicism, and courses on exercises, virtues, control, emotions, impressions, anger, anxiety, forgiveness, and Essential Stoic Ideas. Search by topic, title, duration and format. This is catalog search, not personal listening history; use get_listening_history for previous or next personal exercises. Results include sequence with collection_id, position, total, and previous/next practice IDs. Use collection_id and position to find an exact course session without skipping for time. Use for requests about Stoicism, Stoic practice, calm, resilience, starting or ending the day well, or preparing for something difficult. Returns only real recordings that satisfy the constraints. When nothing fits the time limit, separately labeled longer_options may help the user choose a new limit; never open these without their agreement.
