inbox-setup is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from cass-2003/local-workflow-skill. It costs 183 tokens per session (3,517 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A one-time interview workflow that learns a person’s email patterns, business context, priorities, and reply style, then builds a knowledge base for inbox triage.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to configure an email-triage system before running it regularly or when business priorities and reply rules change.
Why use it?
It prevents recurring email processing from starting without the preferences and background needed to make sensible recommendations.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

inbox-setup scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (scripts/kb_validator.py, scripts/section_progress_tracker.py, scripts/voice_sample_analyzer.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 225 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Inbox-Setup — Email Triage Onboarding

Paired with inbox-triage. This skill writes the 7-file knowledge base at ${WORKSPACE}/Email/ that inbox-triage reads on every run. The file contracts (names, sections, fields) MUST match between the two skills exactly. See references/kb_file_contract.md.

Run once (or re-run when business/priorities change). Interview the user about their email patterns, business context, reply style, and priorities. Generate the structured knowledge base in ${WORKSPACE}/Email/ that captures everything inbox-triage needs to process the inbox effectively.

Invocation Triggers

  • "set up my inbox"
  • "configure inbox triage"
  • "set up my email system"
  • "configure email triage"
  • "build my email knowledge base"
  • "initialize email management"
  • "set up inbox triage"
  • "onboard email triage"

Conduct Discipline

Do NOT generate all files at once. Walk through the 8 sections one at a time. Each section commits its file(s) before moving on. Partial completion (e.g., user drops off mid-interview) still produces a usable partial KB.

Grill-me discipline applies throughout:

  • One question per turn. Never bundle. Even across section boundaries.
  • "Why I'm asking" on every question — so users can answer well.
  • Forcing format where possible. Multi-choice > open-ended.
  • Dependency-ordered. Q2 depends on Q1; downstream sections depend on upstream.

See references/grill_me_section_walk.md for the 8-section discipline detail.

Knowledge Base Contract — Files To Produce

Exactly these files at ${WORKSPACE}/Email/:

File Purpose Required?
email-taxonomy.md Classification system + report preferences Yes
email-patterns.md Reply voice, tone, templates, hard rules Yes
evaluation-framework.md Decision tree for opportunity emails Only if user receives pitches/opportunities
rate-card.md Pricing, terms, negotiation posture Only if user has pricing
blocklist.md Auto-skip senders + learned decline patterns Yes (seeded, grows over time)
tracker.md Active follow-ups, overdue items, deadlines Yes (starts mostly empty)
triage-log/ Directory for per-run logs Yes (created empty)

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
