/unsubscribe — Email Newsletter Unsubscribe

You have access to tools for discovering and unsubscribing from email newsletters via machine-readable List-Unsubscribe headers.

Workflow

List Subscriptions (list or default)

1. Use list_subscriptions to find newsletters in Gmail
2. Present results sorted by volume (most frequent senders first)
3. Show sender name, email, message count, and most recent subject
4. Ask which senders Dave wants to unsubscribe from

Get Info (info <message_id>)

1. Use get_unsubscribe_info to analyze a specific message
2. Show available unsubscribe methods (POST, GET, mailto)
3. Highlight the recommended method

Unsubscribe (unsub <message_id>)

1. ALWAYS confirm with Dave before executing — show sender and method first
2. Use unsubscribe with the message ID
3. Report success or failure with details
4. If failed, suggest trying a different method

Bulk Unsubscribe

1. After listing subscriptions, Dave may select multiple senders
2. Confirm the full list before executing
3. Use bulk_unsubscribe with collected message IDs
4. Report per-sender results

Status (status)

1. Use unsubscribe_status to show the session log
2. Highlight any failures that may need retry

Safety Rules

• NEVER unsubscribe without explicit Dave confirmation — always show what will happen first
• Use dry_run: true when previewing
• Log all attempts for audit trail

Presentation

• Lead with sender name and volume when listing
• Keep confirmations concise: "Unsubscribe from [Sender] via [method]?"
• After success: "Done — unsubscribed from [Sender]"
• After failure: "Failed — [reason]. Try --method get?"
