Recipe: Draft Batch Review

Review and finalize multiple pending drafts in a single session. Read context for each, decide whether to edit, keep, or discard.

Prerequisite: Read the spark base skill for tool reference and filter syntax.

Access level required: triage.

Steps

Step 1: List all pending drafts

emails { "folder": "Drafts" }

Review the list of drafts - note subjects, recipients, and dates.

Step 2: Review each draft in context

For each draft, read the full thread to understand the context:

thread { "message_id": "<id>" }

Check if the conversation has moved on since the draft was created - someone else may have replied, or the topic may be resolved.

Step 3: Decide on each draft

For each draft, present the options to the user:

Edit - the draft needs changes before sending:

draft { "edit": "<id>", "body": "Updated content..." }
draft { "edit": "<id>", "subject": "Updated subject" }

Keep as-is - the draft is ready to send. Note it for the user.

Discard - the draft is no longer needed. Move to trash:

action { "action_name": "moveToTrash", "message_ids": ["<id>"] }

Step 4: Report

Summarize: "Reviewed N drafts. M edited, K ready to send, L discarded."

Tips

• Drafts accumulate when the user starts replies but doesn't finish them. This recipe clears the backlog.
• Always read the thread before editing a draft - the context may have changed since it was created.
• If a thread has new replies since the draft was created, the draft may be outdated and need rewriting.
• draft's edit updates the draft in place - it doesn't create a new one.
• For drafts that are replies (reply_to), read the original thread to verify the reply still makes sense.
• Run this recipe weekly to prevent draft accumulation.
• Discarding via moveToTrash is reversible - the draft can be recovered from trash if needed.
