View prompt
Triage my inbox. For each email, stop at the first yes: is it noise (archive), already handled (archive), urgent today (label @Urgent), a meeting request (suggest 3 times from my calendar), or a routine reply with known facts (draft it)? Everything else: label @Action Required with a one-line summary. Never send, delete, or agree to any price or date.
