Mail, Docs & News

Alongside the main browser view, Trace's nav sidebar has panels for email, documents, and news.

Mail

Connect a Google or Microsoft account from Settings → Mail, either through Trace's default app connection or with your own OAuth client ID, secret, and scopes if you'd rather use your own app registration. Once connected, you can read and compose email directly from the Mail panel.

Turning on Build memory from email lets Trace extract facts and context from your email the same way it does from browsing (see Personal memory). Each connected account shows its backfill status, with a retry option if the initial import needs another pass.

Docs

The Docs panel is a file drive for managing documents alongside your browsing, without switching to a separate app. Organize files into folders, and cut, copy, or paste them between folders the same way you would in any file manager.

Every document gets an AI summary and shows whether it's been indexed into your memory yet, so you can tell at a glance what Trace already knows about a file. From here you can also share a document into a Space if you're part of an organization.

News

Settings → News lets you trigger a manual refresh at any time, or set an auto-digest interval (from every hour up to once a day, or turned off entirely) if you'd rather have a periodic summary than check manually.
