SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the need to manually decide what to do with every incoming message by letting you define trigger-to-action rules that the assistant applies automatically or with review.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Trigger-action automation: Define patterns (e.g., meeting requests, sender/address rules) and describe what the assistant should do when they match.
  • Channel and category scoping: Route playbooks to specific channels (or all channels) and group them with free-form categories like scheduling or triage.
  • Controlled autonomy and priority: Choose auto, draft, or notify behavior and resolve overlaps using numeric priority.
  • Use Case: When a message looks like a scheduling request coming from leadership, create a playbook that drafts a proposed calendar time and the assistant only notifies you unless you approve.

Quick Start

Create a playbook that triggers on a "meeting request" and drafts a suggested response on the email channel by giving the instruction: playbook_create with trigger "meeting request" and action "check calendar availability and propose 3 time options, then draft a confirmation message", channel "email", autonomy_level "draft", and priority 10.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate message triage for incoming requests?

Automate message triage by defining trigger-to-action playbooks that map patterns like meeting requests to consistent assistant behaviors, removing the need to manually decide what to do with every incoming message.

How do I set up a trigger rule to draft calendar availability responses?

Set up a trigger rule by using the playbook tool to define a trigger pattern like "meeting request" and an action instruction to check calendar availability, then set the autonomy level to "draft" to generate a proposed response.

Can I scope workflow routing rules to a specific channel?

Yes, you can scope workflow routing playbooks to specific channels like email or apply them across all channels, grouping them with free-form categories such as scheduling or triage for consistent assistant behaviors.

How do I control assistant autonomy and resolve overlapping trigger rules?

Control assistant autonomy by selecting auto, draft, or notify behavior for each playbook, and resolve overlapping trigger rules by assigning numeric priority values to ensure higher priority playbooks take precedence.

What's the best way to notify leadership when a scheduling request arrives?

The best way to notify leadership is to create a playbook that triggers on a scheduling request pattern, drafts a proposed calendar time, and sets autonomy to "notify" so the assistant only alerts you upon approval.

Does this message routing approach require manual review for every action?

No, message routing does not require manual review for every action because you can set autonomy to "auto" for automatic execution, "draft" for review, or "notify" to only alert you when approval is needed.
