Inbox Triage with Approval
On an interval, classify incoming mail, draft safe replies for routine threads, and escalate anything that needs a human decision.

/loop 30m Start the "Inbox Triage with Approval" loop. Goal: inbox triaged with drafts queued for approval and escalations surfaced Max iterations: 15 Between iterations run: Verify inbox unread count and pending draft queue status Exit when: all threads classified with drafts queued or escalations flagged Step 1 — Monitor: Scan unread inbox for new and SLA-sensitive threads. Step 2 — Act: Classify, draft safe replies, and label follow-ups. Step 3 — Surface: Queue drafts for approval and escalate human-needed threads. Self-pace this loop. After each iteration, run the check command, read the output, and only continue if the exit condition is not met. Stop when the exit condition passes or max iterations is reached. Give a short status update each pass.
