You can automate weekly status request emails by running a portfolio-driven drafting process that reads each matter's log, context, and recent activity to generate tailored email drafts for external solicitors. It identifies eligible matters based on staleness or upcoming deadlines and produces markdown drafts per matter.

Yes, when the Gmail MCP is authenticated, the drafting process creates Gmail drafts automatically for each matter. If the Gmail MCP is unavailable, it produces markdown-only drafts and records which matters were skipped in a run summary.

Deadline tracking selects matters for solicitor check-ins by checking if the last update is overdue by more than 10 days or if an upcoming deadline falls within 21 days. You can also target all matters or a single matter slug manually.

Generating tailored status request drafts requires reading the active portfolio log along with each matter's matter.md context file and history.md recent activity file. These provide the matter-specific context needed to draft the email content.

No, you do not need the Gmail MCP to draft weekly litigation status emails. The process produces markdown email drafts per matter regardless, and only uses the Gmail MCP to optionally create Gmail drafts directly in your inbox.
