# Inbox Triage

Founders spend hours drowning in email: inbound leads, active deal questions, user bugs, partner inquiries, and cold noise. `inbox-triage` digests a batch of incoming messages, cuts the noise, surfaces what matters, and gives you instant response drafts.

---

## When to Invoke

- You open your inbox in the morning and have 15-30 unread messages.
- You paste a raw export, thread snippets, or CRM inquiries into the chat.
- You need a fast overview: *"What requires my attention right now vs what can wait?"*

---

## The Triage Tiers

Each message is classified into one of 4 priority tiers:

1. **🔴 P0: Active Deal & Customer Blockers (Act in < 2 Hours)**:
   - High-value prospect blocked on a question or contract.
   - Paying customer experiencing an outage or critical workflow failure.
2. **🟡 P1: Hot Inbound Leads & Warm Intros (Act Today)**:
   - Qualified prospect asking for pricing, demo, or access.
   - Intro from an investor, advisor, or trusted founder.
3. **🟢 P2: Non-Critical Questions & Feedback (Batch This Week)**:
   - Feature requests, general questions, candidate applications.
4. **⚪ P3: Noise & Low-Priority (Archive / No-Op)**:
   - Cold pitches from vendors, automated newsletters, spam.
