What you can ask

Next Episode has four tools. Ask Claude in plain words and it picks the right one.

search_shows

Looks a show up by name on TVmaze and lists up to 8 matches with each show's id, first year, network and status. It only reads, and it marks the shows you already follow.

follow_show

Follows a show by its TVmaze id. We check TVmaze about every 6 hours and email you when a new episode is announced, when an episode is rescheduled, and when an episode airs within 24 hours. Following the same show twice changes nothing. One account can follow up to 25 shows. The first check of a show is silent: you get an email only when something new happens after that.

list_followed

Lists the shows you follow with the next known episode and its air time, as we last checked.

unfollow_show

Stops following a show and cancels any email for it that has not been sent yet. Every email also has a link that stops all your alerts at once.

When we email you

It e-mails when a next episode is announced, when an episode is rescheduled, and when one airs within 24 hours.

When a followed show's next episode is announced (a new next episode appears for it).
When the air time of that episode changes.
Once, within 24 hours before an episode airs (about to air).

The first check of a newly followed show sends no email; it only records the current next episode. We send no other email about a show.

Three things to ask

"Find the show Severance and follow it." Claude searches, then follows the right one.
"Which shows am I following, and what is on next?" Claude lists your shows with their next episode.
"Stop telling me about Severance." Claude unfollows it.

Air times in the emails and answers are given in the time zone of the country of the show's network (or web channel), and in UTC. For a show with no such country, for example a web-only show, only UTC is shown.
