5
Distinctive
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
0
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 40 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
Inbox Triage
Reduce inbox load while keeping classification, replies, and destructive actions under the user's control. Use email-digest instead when the user wants only a summary or memory ingestion.
Workflow
- Set scope. Confirm the account when more than one is connected, then honor the requested folder, query, date range, or message limit. Default to a small recent inbox sample rather than scanning all mail.
- List before reading. Use message metadata to identify likely high-value threads. Read only enough candidate messages to classify them accurately; do not bulk-read the whole mailbox.
- Classify with reasons. Group messages into: reply needed, task or deadline, waiting/reference, safe archive, likely spam, and uncertain. Include message IDs or unambiguous sender/subject labels so the proposed actions are inspectable.
- Show the plan first. Present counts and the proposed action for each thread. Keep uncertain messages out of action batches and ask about them.
- Apply the chosen batch. Only after the user chooses, apply labels, archive, or mark spam to the exact messages approved. Report successes and failures per message.
- Handle replies separately. Draft a reply, show recipients, subject, and body, then send only after explicit approval. A request to triage is not permission to send.
- Capture tasks deliberately. Suggest tasks for real commitments. Create them in the local backlog, Todoist, or Asana only after the user chooses the destination and content.
Control and Failure Boundaries
- Never permanently delete during ordinary triage. Use trash only after an explicit request; permanent deletion requires unmistakable, message-specific authorization.
- Never infer that a newsletter is spam or that silence means approval. Archive, spam, labels, replies, and tasks are separate choices.
- Respect the configured Gmail memory policy. Do not store email-derived content when it says
forget; ask before storage when it saysask; summarize rather than storing raw bodies. - Gmail connection is not autonomous permission. This skill is chat-only and runs because the user asked now.
- If the account is disconnected or a provider action is unavailable, preserve the proposed plan and give the exact connection or manual next step. Do not discard the useful read-only work.

How matches are found. Word for word: the exact same text. Edited: shares passages with this file (“99% same” means 99% of its five-word phrases also appear here; 10% or more counts). Their own version: similar meaning, or, weakest, the same name. We can’t tell which project had it first. Projects are counted among the 200 most-starred candidates, and mentions are links to the repository we found, up to 50 per site, so both counts are a floor.

Files found in the same public projects as a version of this one, more often than they turn up anywhere else. Each project counts once, large collections count for less, and this file's own repository is left out.
kesslernitySkillbranded-deck-builder
Builds PowerPoint decks on the user's own company template and checks every slide against written brand rules (colours with hex codes, fonts, logo placement, banned visuals). Use when the user asks for a branded, on-brand, CI-compliant or corporate-template presentation, or wants a deck that follows company design guidelines. Confirms an outline first, then builds slide by slide and saves a DRAFT deck to OneDrive.

kesslernitySkillcmo-reviewer
Reviews a proposal, business case, deck or plan in character as a Chief Marketing Officer archetype, producing a structured DRAFT review document with a verdict, findings cited to specific passages, risks and five interrogation questions. Use when the user asks for a CMO review, a marketing executive's read on a document, or wants to pressure-test positioning, messaging, pricing or a launch plan before a real executive review.
