Inbox Triage
Runs a full inbox triage using the knowledge base created by the 'inbox-setup' skill.
Before & after
Same prompt, same agent — the only difference is the skill.
I can help you think through triaging your inbox. Here's a general approach: - Sort by sender or importance - Handle anything urgent or time-sensitive first - Batch similar emails together - Archive or delete newsletters and notifications - Draft replies to anything needing a response - Flag items that need follow-up For 60 unread emails, I'd suggest quickly categorizing them first, then processing each category. Unfortunately I can't access your inbox directly, but if you describe or share the emails, I can help you prioritize. Would you like to start by listing the most urgent ones?
Running a full triage against your taxonomy from inbox-setup. Light-
intake — using your KB-default preferences, so no questions this run
(you're inside normal cadence). Nothing gets sent; replies are drafted
only.
SWEPT 60 UNREAD → CLASSIFIED BY YOUR TAXONOMY
NEEDS YOU (7) — drafted replies ready to review
▸ Client: contract question. Draft written, references your standard
terms. Your send.
▸ Investor intro request. Draft written, warm-but-brief per your KB.
▸ 5 more, each with a draft.
NEW SENDERS (4) — researched before classifying
▸ Two are real prospects (researched: company, role, likely intent).
Drafted a first reply for each.
▸ Two are cold vendor pitches. Classified low, no draft.
FYI / NO ACTION (31)
Newsletters, receipts, notifications, cc's where you're not on the
hook. Summarized in one line each; nothing needs you.
AWAITING OTHERS (6)
You already replied; these are follow-ups you're waiting on. Flagged,
not actioned.
LIKELY DELETE (12)
Expired promos, stale threads. Listed for a one-click clear.
THE REPORT
Delivered in your preferred format (per KB). The 7 "needs you" drafts are
the only thing that requires your time — everything else is already
sorted, and the KB is updated with what I learned about the 4 new senders
for next time.
TO BE CLEAR
I drafted 9 replies. I sent zero. Review the drafts, edit, and send the
ones you approve. What I never do is send on your behalf.
Open the "needs you" drafts and I'll refine any that miss your voice.About this skill

Inbox Triage
Runs a full inbox triage using the knowledge base created by the 'inbox-setup' skill. Light-intake by design (most invocations skip questions and run with KB-default preferences); asks at most 2 grill-me override questions when invocation is outside normal cadence or includes category-skip intent. Searches recent emails, classifies them via the user's taxonomy, researches new senders, generates recommendations, drafts replies (NEVER sends), delivers a report in the user's preferred format, and updates the knowledge base with learnings. Designed to run on a recurring schedule (1-3x daily) or on demand. Use when the user wants their inbox processed, in any variation (e.g., 'triage my inbox', 'inbox triage', 'check my email', 'run email triage', 'process my inbox', 'what's new in my email', 'handle my email', 'email triage'). Requires the inbox-setup skill to have been run first.
