Email Ops

Use this when the real task is mailbox work: triage, drafting, replying, sending, or proving a message landed in Sent.

This is not a generic writing skill. It is an operator workflow around the actual mail surface.

Skill Stack

Pull these Multiversal-native skills into the workflow when relevant:

• brand-voice before drafting anything user-facing
• investor-outreach for investor, partner, or sponsor-facing mail
• customer-billing-ops when the thread is a billing/support incident rather than generic correspondence
• knowledge-ops when the message or thread should be captured into durable context afterward
• research-ops when a reply depends on fresh external facts

When to Use

• user asks to triage inbox or archive low-signal mail
• user wants a draft, reply, or new outbound email
• user wants to know whether a mail was already sent
• the user wants proof of which account, thread, or Sent entry was used

Guardrails

• draft first unless the user clearly asked for a live send
• never claim a message was sent without a real Sent-folder or client-side confirmation
• do not switch sender accounts casually; choose the account that matches the project and recipient
• do not delete uncertain business mail during cleanup
• if the task is really DM or iMessage work, hand off to messages-ops

Workflow

1. Resolve the exact surface

Before acting, settle:

• which mailbox account
• which thread or recipient
• whether the task is triage, draft, reply, or send
• whether the user wants draft-only or live send

2. Read the thread before composing

If replying:

• read the existing thread
• identify the last outbound touch
• identify any commitments, deadlines, or unanswered questions

If creating a new outbound:

• identify warmth level
• select the correct channel and sender account
• pull brand-voice before drafting

3. Draft, then verify

For draft-only work:

• produce the final copy
• state sender, recipient, subject, and purpose

For live-send work:

• verify the exact final body first
• send through the chosen mail surface
• confirm the message landed in Sent or the equivalent sent-copy store

4. Report exact state

Use exact status words:

• drafted
• approval-pending
• sent
• blocked
• awaiting verification

If the send surface is blocked, preserve the draft and report the exact blocker instead of improvising a second transport without saying so.

Output Format

MAIL SURFACE
- account
- thread / recipient
- requested action

DRAFT
- subject
- body

STATUS
- drafted / sent / blocked
- proof of Sent when applicable

NEXT STEP
- send
- follow up
- archive / move

Pitfalls

• do not claim send success without a sent-copy check
• do not ignore the thread history and write a contextless reply
• do not mix mailbox work with DM or text-message workflows
• do not expose secrets, auth details, or unnecessary message metadata

Verification

• the response names the account and thread or recipient
• any send claim includes Sent proof or an explicit client-side confirmation
• the final state is one of drafted / sent / blocked / awaiting verification
