Email Digest

When asked to summarize emails, check inbox, or used via /loop on a schedule:

Process

1. Fetch unread emails — Use the Outlook MCP server to retrieve unread messages:

   • Filter to unread only
   • Sort by date descending
   • Limit to last 24 hours (or since last digest)

2. Categorize — Group emails into:

   • Action Required: Emails that need a response or action from you
   • FYI / Informational: Newsletters, announcements, automated notifications
   • Threads You're CC'd On: Conversations where you're copied but not primary
   • Calendar: Meeting invites and updates

3. Summarize each — For action-required emails:

   • Who sent it and when
   • One-line summary of what they need
   • Suggested response or action

4. Draft quick replies — For routine emails (meeting accepts, simple questions), draft a reply the user can review and send.

5. Generate digest — Produce a prioritized summary.
