Find, recall, and pin

Use a connected AI tool to search work byline has actually read, recall workspace memory, or pin a durable fact. A connection makes these byline tools available; the AI host decides whether to call them. Ask explicitly when the context matters.

If you have not connected a tool yet, follow Connect byline to your AI tool. It needs custom remote MCP support and authorization; if a saved grant no longer works, reconnect it through the host.

Search your ingested work

Ask your connected tool, for example, “Search byline for my posts about pricing and show the sources.” byline searches the content processed in your selected workspace by meaning and by matching words. Results are bounded, not a dump of every post you ever published. A result can include a title, excerpt, source URL when available, and video time bounds when the analysis recorded them. For private email, there may be no public link to show.

Search covers the work and notes processed in the selected workspace. If you work across Studio clients, first ask the tool to list your byline workspaces and select the intended one.

Narrow your search

You can ask for a platform such as YouTube or website, a kind of content such as video or text, and a since date. For example: “Search my YouTube videos about onboarding since January.” The tool exposes these filters, but it cannot promise an exact end-date filter or a search across content byline has not read. Check the returned excerpts and citations before using them as evidence.

Recall a note or draft

Send the text of an unpublished note to the workspace email inbox from the inbox owner's address or an allowed sender. Once it is processed, ask the connected tool to search byline for its subject or topic. A voice memo attachment is not transcribed just because it was emailed; include the words in the email body. Notes belong to the workspace, not to one account member's personal-only archive.

Pin and maintain a fact

For an exact durable brand fact, ask the tool to pin it in byline: “Remember that my newsletter is called The Long Way, lowercase.” byline has memory tools to write, update, list, and read pinned facts. Check that the tool actually used byline and saved it to the right workspace. A pinned fact is not a raw draft import or a guarantee that every host will fetch and apply it to every response. When drafting, ask the tool to retrieve your relevant byline facts or profile and inspect what it used.

Keep facts short and unambiguous. When a name, link, or tagline changes, ask the tool to update or retire the old fact, then confirm the change in byline. Source content remains separate from these pinned facts.
