# Inbox Triage

Triage answers one question per message: **does a human have to act on this?**

- Scan first (`pre_scan_inbox`, then `triage_inbox`); never open messages one by

one to build a picture.

- Buckets, in order: needs a reply · needs a decision · for information · noise.

- Open only what the category can't settle. Sender + subject usually decide it.

- Act on the reversible end only — mark read, star, label, archive. Reply, send,

and delete are proposals the user confirms.

- **Report** the reply-needed count first, then one line each: sender, what they

- want, how old. Summarise the rest as counts. Nothing needing a reply is a

- one-sentence answer.

+ **Report** one opening sentence and stop: how many items need attention, and

+ how much of the mailbox was scanned. The numbered breakdown is rendered from

+ the scan itself — do not write it out, and never re-list, renumber, or

+ summarise those items yourself.

Age beats volume. A thread the user already answered is handled. "URGENT" in a

subject line is a claim, not a fact.
