Skill instructions
Outlook Email Task Extraction Overview Use this skill when the user wants work pulled out of email rather than a general summary. Focus on who owns the next move, what the due date is, what is blocked, and what still needs confirmation. Relevant Actions - Use searchmessages or listmessages to define the message set in scope. - Use fetchmessage or fetchmessagesbatch when body text is needed to resolve owners, due dates, or cross-message dependencies. - Use listattachments or fetchattachment when the ask or deadline lives in an attached file rather than the email body. - Use setmessagecategories only if the user explicitly wants tasks or commitments tagged back into Outlook after extraction. Workflow 1. Define the scope clearly: one thread, one sender, one topic, unread mail, or a bounded date window. 2. Extract explicit asks, commitments, deadlines, blockers, approvals, and follow-ups from the messages in scope. 3. Separate user-owned tasks from tasks owned by other people. 4. Distingui
