Triage Email Inbox With AI Judgment

Scans your Gmail inbox and classifies every message into three tiers: Reply Needed (direct questions, time-sensitive), Review (informational), and Noise (promotional, bulk). It removes the friction of manually scanning 200 subject lines to find the 5 emails that actually need action.

Invoke with /email or 'check my email'. The plugin loads your alias routing table (optional, but powerful), scans the last 24 hours of emails, classifies each using sender, content, and urgency signals (family members, work domain, financial alerts, time-sensitive language), and presents a clean triage. Tier 1 items are numbered so you can ask 'draft a reply to #3'. Claude reads the full thread, drafts in your voice, and waits for your approval before sending. Tier 3 emails (noise) are summarized as category counts and archived only on your confirmation. Output: actionable inbox summary with draft replies ready to review.

Uses Gmail MCP tools (read_gmail_message, read_gmail_thread, archive operations) which must be available in your Claude environment (Cowork or Claude Code). Employs snippet-first classification to avoid token overuse on high-volume days. Only reads full message bodies when classification from subject/sender/snippet is ambiguous or when drafting a reply. Time-window queries (newer_than:1d) are more reliable than is:unread status because many people browse emails casually without marking them.
