Built-In Tools

Tuna has a lot of small built-in utilities.

The important thing is not the list. The important thing is that they still fit the same model as everything else:

  • find or create a subject
  • choose an action
  • optionally choose a target

That is why Tuna can have many tools without turning into a random pile of features.

Text Utilities

Some built-ins are easiest to reach from Text Mode.

Examples:

  • quick calculations
  • unit and currency conversions
  • text transforms
  • copy and paste actions
  • sending shortcuts with Send Keys

These are useful because text stays inside Tuna's normal action flow instead of ending at the first answer.

Everyday Catalogs

Other built-ins act more like browseable catalogs or ready-made subjects.

Examples include:

  • emoji
  • recent clipboard items
  • Shelf items
  • Smart Links
  • folders and file hierarchies
  • "current" items from the app you are in

These give Tuna more things to start from without changing how commands are built.

Small Actions Everywhere

Some tools are less like catalogs and more like useful verbs that appear when they make sense.

For example:

  • opening something
  • revealing it in Finder
  • copying it
  • moving it
  • sending it to another app

This is easy to miss at first. Tuna often feels richer over time not because you discovered a hidden mode, but because you realized more subjects already support more actions than you assumed.

Use The Built-Ins As Glue

The best way to think about built-in tools is as glue between the bigger parts of Tuna.

They connect:

So yes, Tuna has an emoji picker and a bunch of other conveniences.

But the reason they matter is that they are part of the same command language, not because they are standalone mini apps.
