Gmail forwarding so the bot only surfaces what matters

Every email is copied to the bot's own address; it only flags what needs a decision and checks spam twice a day.

Schedule: On email + twice daily

Setup: Gmail forwarding to the bot's claimed address wakes it on each email. It never replies on its own.

Forward a client email, get a Notion project

A long client email forwarded to the bot's address became a broken-down project in Notion.

Setup: Uses the bot's own email address.

Gives the bot its own Fastmail mailbox and calendar

The bot has its own Fastmail mailbox, calendar, contacts and notes, and now answers forwarded mail live.

Schedule: Was every 15 min; now on new email

Setup: Previously a routine checked the inbox every 15 minutes; now a Fastmail forward rule to the bot's own Grok Bot email address triggers it instead.

A separate inbox for signups, codes and receipts

The chief-of-staff bot's own email address receives signups, verification codes, receipts and newsletters.

Setup: Nothing triggers unless a routine is set; sending still needs approval.
