//! `mecha mail` — the triage queue over the mailbox.
//!
//! The command line does everything first and the modal will drive it, on the
//! front door's rule: one implementation, and no way for a UI to do something
//! the terminal cannot.
//!
//! The verbs split along the quarantine, exactly as `mecha frontdoor`'s do.
//! **`list` prints typed fields only** — what the classifier decided, never
//! what anybody wrote — so a subject line cannot reach a terminal that is
//! rendering a table. **`show` prints the prose, deliberately**, because a
//! person reading their own mail in a terminal is the safe context; you cannot
//! be prompt-injected into mailing your own calendar somewhere.
//! **`classify` is the quarantined pass.**
//!
//! Mail arrives the same way it does for the model: through the MCP tool
//! surface. This crate has no dependency on `mecha-mail` and does not gain
//! one here — `mail_recent` already answers in JSON, so the driver reads the
//! same bytes the loop would.
