Inoreader MCP tools: https://cotlet.dev/docs/mcp/inoreader.md

MCP tool: `inoreader_read → list_articles`

Access: read.

Lists articles from one stream, newest first unless oldest_first is set. Set unread_only to leave out articles you read, and since to cover a time window. Pages hold up to 100 articles and 20 by default; pass next_cursor back as cursor until it is null. Oldest-first lookback is limited to about one month.

| `since` | datetime | no | Only articles newer than this time. |
| `oldest_first` | boolean | no | Oldest first instead of newest first. |

## For AI agents: sign your user up

Is your user asking you to sign them up for Cotlet? You can do it for them, no account or key needed.

1. Read the fields and their allowed values: GET https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/access-requests
2. Ask the user for each value: email, apps, what you will do with them. If they leave the password to you, generate a strong one and show it to them.
3. Show the user what you will send, then POST it as JSON to https://cotlet.dev/api/v1/access-requests.

One call creates the account and sends the access request; we email the user when access is granted.
