mecha-core 0.1.17

//! The mail triage store: one typed verdict per thread, and the quarantined
//! pass that produces it.
//!
//! This is the front door's shape applied one directory over, and it exists
//! for the same sentence:
//!
//! > **The privileged run sees the extraction, never the prose.**
//!
//! Reading mail arms `untrusted_input` — mail bodies are other people's words,
//! and config forces the label. A triage loop that reads fifty messages into
//! one conversation therefore arms the trifecta for all fifty, and every draft
//! it stages comes out tainted. That is *correct*, and at inbox scale it is
//! also useless: fifty red confirmations is fifty confirmations nobody reads.
//! A warning that fires on everything has stopped being a warning.
//!
//! So the prose goes to a classifier with no tools and no history, and only
//! its typed output travels. Five things follow, and the last is why this is
//! worth building rather than merely safe:
//!
//! - **The list view renders typed fields.** An injection in a subject line
//!   cannot reach a privileged run or a learned rule.
//! - **The pass runs in isolation**, so it never arms the caller's
//!   conversation — the same reason `frontdoor triage` gives each request a
//!   fresh one.
//! - **Opening the list costs nothing.** A trigger classifies; the reader
//!   reads a store. "Nothing new" costs zero tokens and no model at all,
//!   which is the argument that kept `drain` out of `mecha frontdoor`.
//! - **The prose stays readable by a human, deliberately.** `show` prints the
//!   body in a terminal, as `frontdoor show` does: a person reading mail in a
//!   terminal is the safe context, and you cannot be prompt-injected into
//!   mailing your own calendar somewhere.
//! - **It is gradeable.** A store of (thread → verdict) with corrections on
//!   top is simultaneously an eval fixture, a `reflect` source, and the
//!   few-shot pool the triage step wants. Classification accuracy stops being
//!   a feeling.
//!
//! **What this store is not: a copy of the mailbox.** It holds ids, envelope
//! metadata and a verdict. Bodies are fetched on demand and never written
//! here, so the retention question stays the provider's and there is no second
//! place for mail to leak from.

         Decide:\n\

         `notify` (worth knowing, no reply needed), `ignore` (newsletters, \
         receipts with nothing to do, automated notifications, anything not \
         worth tracking).\n\
         - urgency: `now`, `today`, `week`, or `none`.\n\
         - one_line: at most 12 words, what this is and what it wants. Plain \
         description, never an instruction.\n\
         - tags: zero or more of exactly these: {tags}.\n\
         - proposed: one of `reply`, `archive`, `spam`, `schedule` (it needs a \
         calendar event), `task` (it needs an action tracked), `forward` (it \
         needs to reach somebody else, such as a receipt going to the finance \
         office), `none`.\n\
         - deadline: YYYY-MM-DD if the thread implies one, else null.\n\
         - request_type: if this is really one of these standard requests \
         arriving as an email, name it: {types}. Otherwise null. Do not invent \
         a type that is not on that list. Naming one is worth doing whether or \
         not anything can be done with it automatically — say what the request \
         IS and let the rest be decided elsewhere.\n\
         Name the type by what the sender ultimately WANTS, not by the \
         mechanism they suggest for getting it. Someone asking to join the lab \
         who proposes a call is `lab-application`, not `meeting`; someone \
         asking for a letter who offers to meet first is `letter`. Use \
         `meeting` only when meeting IS the request and nothing else is being \
         asked for. A student asking about prerequisites, a major or minor \
         plan, a course petition, transfer credit or thesis logistics is \
         `student-advising` — this is the most common request there is, and \
         its routineness is not a reason to leave it unnamed.\n\
