Lightweight inbox triage across all configured email accounts.

  • Works in 4 steps: Detect Available Email Tools → Dispatch Fetch Agent → Review with Judgment → …
  • User says check my inbox
  • SKILL.md covers Trigger, Architecture, Process and Judgment Points, plus 1 more section
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Inbox Check is an agent skill from kbanc85/claudia. Lightweight inbox triage across all configured email accounts. Dispatches fast subagent to fetch, then reviews with judgment. Use when user says "check my inbox", "any new emails?", "check email". See also: draft-reply once you pick an email to respond to.

Its SKILL.md is about 830 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Productivity & Automation, covering Email management. The repository describes itself as: Terminal-based AI chief of staff. Remembers relationships, tracks commitments, helps you think strategically. Runs on Claude Code.

When your agent uses it

  • User says check my inbox
  • Any new emails?

Example prompts

  • “check my inbox”
  • “any new emails?”
  • “check email”
  • “/inbox-check”

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Detect Available Email Tools
  2. Dispatch Fetch Agent
  3. Review with Judgment
  4. Present Results

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit eb63cec. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Inbox Check loads about 828 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 285 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~68
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~828

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 285 words (~828 tokens).

“Two-tier inbox triage: fetch fast, then judge what matters.”
