What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you quickly catch up on a large backlog after vacation by prioritizing what matters, batching low-importance items, and surfacing only messages that need attention.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Backlog triage by category: Counts and separates unread items (priority, personal/people, invitations, notifications, newsletters) for an absence-sized time window.
• Controlled per-thread review: Reviews priority threads and checks people mail threads to determine whether items are still open.
• Batch-archive for noise: Bulk archives notifications and older newsletters to reduce manual reading.
• Invitation and sender handling: Differentiates past vs future invitations and runs GateKeeper new-sender decisions (accept/block).
• Deferral with reminders: Snoozes or sets reminders for items that should be revisited later.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to run the vacation catchup recipe for your inbox using the triage access level, batching notifications and newsletters while surfacing only items that still need action.
