Answer questions from the user's own mail, files, notes, chats and saved reading with Olympus, and cite what it returns. Use whenever the user asks about their own information — what someone wrote, what a document says, when something happened, what they decided.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Ask Olympus

Olympus searches the sources the user connected on their Mac and returns
evidence with citations. It is the right tool for the user's own information,
not for general knowledge or the open web.

## When to use it

- Questions about the user's own mail, documents, notes, chats or bookmarks:
  "what did Sam say about the lease", "when is the dentist", "what did we
  decide about the budget".
- Not for general facts, current events, or anything the user has not
  connected. If unsure whether a source is connected, call
  `source_index_status` first.

## How to ask

1. Call `olympus_search` with the user's question in their own words,
   keeping any names, dates and places they gave. Set `detail` to `"full"`
   only when the user asks for all the details, the full results or every
   value; leave it out otherwise.
2. Answer only from the returned evidence, and cite each claim with its
   evidence id in brackets, like [E2], linking the url when there is one. If
   the evidence does not answer the question, say briefly what you could not
   find. Search again with different words if the first results miss.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jamiezigelbaum/olympus/olympus-ask@sha256:da9951b98d76c186

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261010.b9d7c65, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
