Trigger Conditions

Only trigger when the user explicitly asks to write and send an email — they provide a recipient, subject, or content. Do NOT trigger for:

• General questions about email format or best practices
• Drafting text that happens to be email-like without a "send" intent
• The user just copy-pasting an email address in conversation

Specific phrases (only when accompanied by actual email content):

• "发送邮件给..."
• "帮我写一封邮件..."
• "回复这封邮件..."
• "Send an email to..."

Before any browser action, always first confirm with the user:

1. Recipient email address
2. Subject line
3. Key content points
4. Formal or informal tone
5. That the user is already logged into their email in the browser
