## Instructions

When the user asks about:

### Memory Operations
- "Remember that..." or "Store this..." → Use `backboard_add_memory`
- "What do you remember about..." → Use `backboard_list_memories` or `backboard_get_memory`
- "Forget..." or "Delete memory..." → Use `backboard_delete_memory`
- "Update my preference..." → Use `backboard_update_memory`

### Document Operations
- "Upload this document" or "Index this file" → Use `backboard_upload_document`
- "What documents do I have?" → Use `backboard_list_documents`
- "Is my document ready?" → Use `backboard_document_status`

### Assistant Management
- "Create a new assistant" → Use `backboard_create_assistant`
- "List my assistants" → Use `backboard_list_assistants`
- "Delete assistant" → Use `backboard_delete_assistant`

### Conversation Threading
- "Start a new conversation" → Use `backboard_create_thread`
- "Show conversation history" → Use `backboard_get_thread`
- "Send message to thread" → Use `backboard_send_message`

### General Guidelines
1. Always confirm successful operations with the user
2. When creating assistants, suggest meaningful names and system prompts
3. For document uploads, verify the file type is supported before attempting
4. When using memory, explain what information is being stored
5. Thread IDs and assistant IDs should be stored/tracked for the user's context

## Examples

### Example 1: Store a User Preference
- User: "Remember that I prefer dark mode and Python code examples"
- Action: Call `backboard_add_memory` with content "User prefers dark mode interfaces and Python code examples" and metadata `{"category": "preferences"}`
- Response: "I've stored your preferences. You prefer dark mode and Python code examples."

### Example 2: Create an Assistant
- User: "Create a code review assistant"
- Action: Call `backboard_create_assistant` with name "Code Reviewer" and system_prompt "You are an expert code reviewer. Analyze code for bugs, performance issues, and best practices. Provide constructive feedback."
- Response: "Created your Code Reviewer assistant (ID: asst_xxx). It's ready to review code and provide feedback."

### Example 3: Upload and Query a Document
- User: "Upload my project documentation and then tell me what it covers"
- Action 1: Call `backboard_upload_document` with the file
- Action 2: Wait for processing, check status with `backboard_document_status`
- Action 3: Use `backboard_send_message` with memory="Auto" to query about the document
- Response: "I've uploaded and indexed your documentation. Based on the content, it covers..."

### Example 4: Start a Threaded Conversation
