— the description by Google Workspace

AutoGineer summary

Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author

This skill provides a structured procedure for automating email management in Gmail. It guides users through the process of identifying existing labels, creating new ones, and establishing specific filtering rules to automatically label, star, or move incoming messages out of the inbox. It relies on the gws-gmail skill to interface with the Gmail API.

What it does

  • Lists existing Gmail labels for the user account
  • Creates new custom labels for email organization
  • Defines filtering criteria based on sender or other message attributes
  • Configures automated actions such as applying labels or removing messages from the inbox
  • Verifies the successful creation of new filters

When to use it

  • When you need to organize incoming emails from specific senders automatically
  • When you want to reduce inbox clutter by moving specific messages to dedicated labels
  • When you are setting up automated workflows for email processing

Advantages

  • Reduces manual email sorting tasks
  • Ensures consistent organization of incoming communications
  • Provides a programmatic way to manage Gmail settings

Usage examples

“Create a filter for emails from [email removed] to label them as Receipts and remove them from the inbox.”
The agent will list labels, create a new 'Receipts' label if needed, and configure a Gmail filter that automatically processes incoming mail from that sender.
