Triage a Gmail inbox into actionable buckets such as urgent, needs reply soon, waiting, and FYI using connected Gmail data. Use when the user asks to triage the inbox, rank what needs attention, find what still needs a reply, or separate important mail from noise.
Use this skill for direct inbox-triage requests. Build on the core Gmail skill at ../gmail/SKILL.md, especially its search and thread-reading guidance.
