Give your (preferably local) LLM-based agent read access to your email.

They’re pretty good at cross-referencing across multiple formats.

For a complete noob, what tools would you suggest to use? I have a gaming Nvidia GPU with 10GB RAM.

For the easy path:

- Serve the model with either Ollama or *LM Studio* (the latter 'hides' their traditional Studio on the download page for the agentic one they are preferring you use).

- For the model, Gemma 4 E4B is a nice combination of performance and speed with a decent context size. Not good enough for complex coding needs, but the Qwen models work okay for that (10GB GPU gets you less than you might think).

- For the interface I'd suggest either OpenCode or Pi.

Personally I run LM Studio and in the UI switch on its built in OpenAI compatible API, then point OpenCode at that and run it alongside (not in) my IDE.
