scan-inbox

scan-inbox is a skill for Claude Code from suxrobGM/jobpilot. It costs 34 tokens per session (1,500 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An inbox review tool that classifies unprocessed email messages and links each one to a matching job application when the match is confident. It uses an approval screen before changing application records.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to sync pending Gmail messages, classify one message or a queue, propose application matches, and review those proposals in the inbox.
Why use it?
It reduces the manual work of sorting email and connecting messages to the right applications. It does not directly change application statuses or create application events during normal review.

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

scan-inbox scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 10d ago.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 126 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Scan Inbox - Review Pending Email

Classify recent email and link each thread to an existing Application when there's a confident match. This skill does not write ApplicationEvent rows or mutate Application.status directly - the user approves from /inbox. One server-side exception: a rejected classification sent with reviewStatus: "auto" is applied on arrival (see Phase 4 rules).

Setup

Follow ../_shared/setup.md.

Phase 1: Confirm Mailbox Connected

curl -fsS -H "authorization: Bearer $JOBPILOT_API_TOKEN" "$JOBPILOT_API/api/email/account"

If .connected === false, stop:

No email account is connected. Open /profileEmail and connect a Gmail account, then re-run scan-inbox.

Phase 2: Pick the Queue

One message - an id was passed (a re-scan from the inbox table). Fetch just it and classify it again even if it's already classified or reviewed:

curl -fsS -H "authorization: Bearer $JOBPILOT_API_TOKEN" "$JOBPILOT_API/api/email/messages/<id>"

All pending - no argument. Sync, then pull the unscanned queue:

curl -fsS -H "authorization: Bearer $JOBPILOT_API_TOKEN" -X POST "$JOBPILOT_API/api/email/sync"
curl -fsS -H "authorization: Bearer $JOBPILOT_API_TOKEN" "$JOBPILOT_API/api/email/messages?reviewStatus=pending&classification=null"

Both list routes answer {items, pagination}; read .items. If it is empty: "Inbox is already reviewed. Nothing new to classify." and exit.

The rest of the skill runs over whatever you fetched. A re-scan overwrites the classification and resets reviewStatus, but never undoes an approved status move.

Phase 3: Classify

For each message, pick one classification:

Classification When
interviewing Recruiter reply, interview invite, scheduling, take-home, next-round.
rejected Explicit rejection / "moved forward with other candidates".
offer Formal job offer (comp, start date, offer letter attached).
verification One-time code, magic link, "confirm your email", 2FA from a job board.
irrelevant Job alerts, digests, "jobs you may like", "you appeared in N searches", newsletters, "application received" auto-acknowledgements, marketing, calendar pings.
