Smart email draft generator
When a new email arrives, Claude writes the reply you would have written and leaves it in your Gmail drafts for you to send.

How it works
What happens on each run, in plain English.
Whenever a new email lands in your Gmail inbox, AI writes the reply you would have written, in your voice, and leaves it waiting in your drafts. You open Gmail, read it, change what you want and send it. Mail you would never answer is skipped first: unattended senders, automatic replies, bulk mail with an unsubscribe footer, and messages with barely any text.
The draft answers what the email actually asks, in the sender's language and at their level of formality, using only what is in the email and what you have said about yourself. Wherever it needs a fact it does not have, it leaves a square-bracketed placeholder for you rather than inventing a price, a date or a commitment. An email that asks for nothing gets no draft at all. Nothing reaches the sender until you send it, unless you deliberately switch it to send straight away.
It needs a description of who you are, how you write and what you never commit to in a first reply, plus a name to sign off with.
