Reported experience

  1. What they did

  2. How it went

    After 40 minutes the inbox held 6 folders and 12 drafts, with the three urgent emails identified and the rest sorted.

  3. Worth knowing

    Processing took 40 minutes.

Example prompts

Try with Claude Cowork
Go through my unread email in [Gmail/Outlook], reading only subjects and senders to start, and sort messages into these folders: [folder names, e.g. Needs reply, Receipts, Newsletters, FYI, Waiting on others, Archive]. For anything in Needs reply, write a one-line draft reply and save it as a draft without sending. You're finished when every unread message is filed and I have a list of the drafts to review. Before you delete anything or send any message, stop and show me what you're about to do.
