Gmail Modify Labels

Atomic node skill to modify email labels in Gmail using the gog CLI.

Lean Philosophy (Principles)

• Kaizen (改善): This skill is an atomic node, broken down into its simplest, smallest component to eliminate waste and ensure perfection.
• Standardized Work (Hyojun Sagyo): This node represents the most efficient, standardized path for this specific task before automation.
• Jidoka (自働化): This node includes autonomous defect detection. It relies on the CLI's self-healing loop and will report errors if the modification fails.

This skill allows the agent to add or remove labels from an email or thread using the native CLI.

Cognitive Directives

WHEN [Labels on an email need to be changed, added, or removed] THEN [ Execute the following Jidoka-validated loop:

1. Execute Node: Execute the native terminal command gog gmail messages modify <messageId> ... or equivalent label command.
2. Verification Step (Jidoka): Verify the command returns a successful confirmation. IF it fails or returns an error message, wait 3 seconds and retry (max 3 times). IF it still fails, report the error to the user and STOP. ]

Schema Example

{
  "command": "gog gmail messages modify msg_id_123 --add-label INBOX --remove-label UNREAD --json"
}

Expected Output

Confirmation that the labels were updated.
