ABOUTME: Parameterized batch operations with safety-first approach

Email Cleanup Skill

Gmail: See ../_GMAIL.md for account config and commands.

Safety Rules

  1. NEVER delete without confirmation - show counts first
  2. Archive over delete - prefer archiving (recoverable)
  3. Batch in chunks - max 50 at a time

Cleanup Targets

Category Query Action
Promotions category:promotions older_than:30d Archive
Social category:social older_than:14d Archive
Read updates category:updates is:read older_than:7d Archive
Large emails larger:10M Review individually
Unsubscribe candidates unsubscribe is:read older_than:30d Review

Workflow

Step 1: Count each category

gog gmail search "<query>" --account=maroffo@gmail.com --json | jq '.resultSizeEstimate'

Step 2: Present summary table with counts and suggested actions

Step 3: Execute (with confirmation)

THREADS=$(gog gmail search "<query>" --account=maroffo@gmail.com --json --max=50 | jq -r '.threads[].id')
for tid in $THREADS; do
  gog gmail thread modify $tid --account=maroffo@gmail.com --remove-labels=INBOX
done

Process in batches of 50. Report progress.
