Readwise
Triage your read-later inbox, quiz yourself, and build a now-reading page from your highlights
About this skill
These official Readwise skills let your agent work directly with your Readwise and Reader data through Readwise's own MCP server or CLI. You can triage your inbox, get quizzed on recent reading, synthesize book reviews, and generate a personal now-reading page. Your data is accessed via OAuth and processed locally, with nothing sent to outside services beyond Readwise's own API.
What it does
- Read your Readwise highlights and Reader articles, tags, and reading history
- Create, edit, delete, tag, and move highlights and documents in your own Readwise account
- Generate local HTML pages and visualizations from your reading data
- Access any account other than your own authorized Readwise
- Send your reading data to third parties
- Store or expose your credentials (handled by Readwise OAuth/CLI)
Security report
- Hidden instructions that could trick your AI (prompt injection)
- Secretly collecting or sending your data (data exfiltration)
- Asking for more access than it needs
- Unsafe actions that could delete or send things without asking
- Where it comes from and whether its licence is clear
