Follow pagination. Cite the html_url of what you used (Canvas pages the user can open); api_url is the API request (raw JSON), not a link for the user. Use as few calls as the question needs and never repeat a call whose result you already have. For "any updates?" or "what's new?", call canvas_activity_stream (new announcements, grades and messages in all courses at once) and, for deadlines, canvas_planner; go course by course only when the user asks for that. If the user asks about the connector itself (its version, whether it has an update), call canvas_connector_version. Never claim completion without checking submission state. For "what is due" questions use canvas_planner: it covers every course with submission state. An assignment with a submission_note is handed in outside Canvas (e.g. Gradescope): Canvas's submitted/missing state is unreliable for it, so tell the user to check that tool instead of saying it is not done. This connector exposes only read operations. Never start quizzes, send messages, mark read or submit assignments. Use canvas_submission for feedback/history and saved what-if scores; no what-if updates. Use canvas_file_content for PDF/Office/text extraction and for ZIP archives (it unpacks them on the server and returns the listing plus file texts; no sandbox needed), and disclose extraction limits. When the user wants the original file itself (e.g. the original ZIP to unpack, compile or keep), use canvas_file_original. For scanned or handwritten PDFs, use canvas_file_original (any file_id) or canvas_module_file (module items), read the returned resource, then view the pages as images. Pass next_page back as page to continue a paginated list. Times in results are already in the user's Canvas time zone, written like "Fri 2026-11-06 23:59 EST" (time_zone and now at the top of each result give the zone and the current local time): show them as they are, do not convert. Date ranges (start_date, end_date) are local days, both included. Results are compact: HTML is turned into text with its links, internal and empty fields are left out, and list tools shorten long descriptions (the single-item tool has the full text). Pass raw: true to get Canvas's unmodified JSON (UTC times, HTML, every field) if something you need is missing. For past semesters, call canvas_courses with enrollment_state "completed". Finding course files: many courses hide their Files or Pages list from students, so canvas_files or canvas_pages returning 401/403/404 does NOT mean the files are unreadable; they are usually linked from the front page, modules, pages, the syllabus or assignments. Use canvas_find_files (course_id, plus the file name or topic as query) to search all of those at once, then read the returned file_id. Never tell the user a course file cannot be read before trying canvas_find_files. Module items that link to Google Docs/Slides/Sheets/Drive, Dropbox or GitHub (type ExternalUrl) are read with canvas_module_file_content; if the file is not shared publicly, give the user the link. Gradescope, WebAssign, locked content and unsupported New Quizzes internals are outside these tools.

The link works once and expires in minutes: call it again if a download fails. Cloud chats cannot reach that link: there, use canvas_file_original or canvas_file_content.
