email-triage
Triage a Gmail inbox down to only what needs you. Use when asked to triage email, clear an inbox, find what needs a reply, or summarise recent mail. Produces a prioritised list of items needing action — replies, decisions, follow-ups — for a configurable window (default last 8 hours), filtering out receipts, notifications, and newsletters.
npx skills add mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills --skill email-triage --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Email Triage ## The Problem Most of us spend real time triaging email that could be sorted automatically. Scrolling through a mixed inbox of newsletters, order confirmations, Jira notifications, and actual human asks is a tax on focus. The 40 emails since lunch contain maybe 4 that actually need you — this skill finds those 4. ## Prerequisites | Requirement | Details | |-------------|---------| | Gmail connector | Must be active in Claude settings (Settings → Connectors → Gmail) | | Gmail account | The account you want triaged | If the Gmail connector is not connected, Claude will prompt you to connect it before proceeding. ## Required Inputs | Input | Required | Default | Notes | |-------|----------|---------|-------| | Time window | No | Last 8 hours | Accepts: "last 8 hours", "last 24h", "today", "since Monday", "last 3 days" | | Always-include senders | No | None | Specific names or email addresses that always surface, regardless of content | | Always-ignore senders | No | None | Domains or addresses to always suppress (e.g. noreply@*, jira@company.com) | | Focus area | No | None | Optional context: "focus on anything from clients" or "flag anything about the launch" | ## Wha

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills --skill email-triage --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills, a repository with 1,255 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
