Run a high-recall, multi-pass email inbox cleanup. Pattern-based subject queries catch 25x more archivable email than sender scans alone. Includes urgency triage, classification signals, and post-cleanup filter setup.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Inbox Cleanup Skill A playbook for large-scale email inbox cleanup. The core insight: sender-based scans are low-recall. Subject/body pattern queries catch 25x more archivable email. This skill is a multi-pass pipeline built around that insight. Works with any connected email provider. Adapt query syntax to whatever the provider supports — the strategy (what to search for, how to decide what to archive) is universal. > **Gmail is a required integration.** It's declared via `includes: ["gmail"]` in the frontmatter so it loads synchronously on activation, not lazily after the preferences form. Load/confirm the Gmail integration the moment this skill activates — before Phase 1 — so a missing or unauthorized connection surfaces up front rather than mid-cleanup. --- ## Phase 1: Preference Capture Do this before touching anything. Ask the user: **1. Aggressiveness level** - _Conservative_ — newsletters with unsubscribe headers + obvious spam only - _Standard_ — above + cold outreach heuristics (subject patterns, unknown senders) - _Aggressive_ — above + anything from senders with no prior thread history **2. Age threshold** …

How to install
mdr add vellum-ai/vellum-assistant/inbox-cleanup@sha256:2cf0937f1b411fe3The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260605.4d78fed, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
