Email Reply Reader

Read and parse job application email replies from companies. Activate when user asks to check job application replies, read recruiter emails, see who respond...

Security Scan

The skill's requests and runtime instructions match its stated purpose (reading and classifying Gmail replies) and do not ask for unrelated credentials or installs, but it will access your email content so you should verify the gog tool and consent to Gmail access before using it.

Purpose & Capability

Name/description align with what the SKILL.md does: it searches a Gmail inbox and classifies replies. The only required binary is 'gog', which is exactly what's used in the instructions to access Gmail. No unrelated env vars, config paths, or extra binaries are requested.

Instruction Scope

Instructions explicitly direct the agent to search inbox/sent mail and read full message bodies via 'gog'. This is expected for an email reader, but it means the skill will have access to full email text (sensitive PII). The SKILL.md does not instruct exfiltration or to post data to other endpoints, nor does it auto-send replies — it only offers templates and suggests drafting replies.

Install Mechanism

This is instruction-only with no install spec (lowest install risk). The user must already have the 'gog' binary; no downloads or archive extraction are specified by the skill itself.

Credentials

No environment variables or external credentials are declared. The skill expects the user to authenticate 'gog' with Gmail (via gog auth), which is proportionate to the claimed capability of reading Gmail.

Persistence & Privilege

The skill is not always-enabled and is user-invocable. The default platform setting allows autonomous invocation, so if you permit the agent to call the skill automatically it could read inbox content when triggered — this is a sensitivity consideration but not an intrinsic incoherence in the skill.

Assessment

This skill will read your Gmail via the 'gog' CLI and classify recruiter replies. Before installing or invoking it: (1) verify the provenance and trustworthiness of the 'gog' binary you will use (official source, review permissions); (2) understand that authenticating will grant that tool access to your email content — consider using an account you control and trust; (3) confirm you are comfortable with the agent being allowed to invoke the skill autonomously (it could read emails when triggered); (4) the skill does not request unrelated secrets, but be cautious about sharing credentials outside of the vetted gog auth flow. If any of these are a concern, do not enable the skill or run the gog auth step until you validate gog's origin and permissions.

Reads Gmail inbox, finds job application replies, and classifies each response.

Prerequisites

gog authenticated with Gmail:

gog auth add [e-mail] --services gmail

When to Activate

• "查一下有没有回复"、"check my job application replies"
• "有哪些公司回复了"、"did anyone respond to my resume"
• "看看招聘邮件"、"read recruiter emails"

Workflow

Step 1: Search for application-related emails

# Search for replies in the last 30 days
gog gmail messages search "in:inbox (interview OR application OR resume OR opportunity OR position OR role OR job) newer_than:30d" \
  --max 50 \
  --account [e-mail] \
  --json

Also search for sent mail to cross-reference:

gog gmail messages search "in:sent (application OR resume OR apply) newer_than:30d" \
  --max 50 \
  --account [e-mail] \
  --json

Step 2: Classify each reply

For each email found, classify it into one of these categories:

Category	Signals	Next Action
🟢 Interview Invite	"schedule", "interview", "call", "meet", "availability", "slot"	Reply to confirm ASAP
🔵 Positive Interest	"impressed", "interested", "shortlisted", "next steps", "team"	Respond within 24h
🟡 Request for Info	"portfolio", "references", "salary", "notice period", "assessment"	Prepare and reply
🟠 Recruiter Outreach	"exciting opportunity", "your profile", "perfect fit" (unsolicited)	Evaluate if relevant
🔴 Rejection	"unfortunately", "not moving forward", "other candidates", "not a fit"	Log and move on
⚪ Auto-reply / No Info	"thank you for applying", "received your application", generic acknowledgement	Wait for real reply
❓ Unclear	Hard to classify	Read full email for context

Step 3: Output structured summary

Present results in this format:
