Inbox-to-Trello Triage Agent with Due-Date Inference
Reads new Gmail messages, decides which ones contain a real action, and creates a Trello card for each.

What it does
This agent watches your Gmail inbox and turns the emails that actually require work into structured Trello cards. It ignores newsletters, receipts, and FYI threads, and for each actionable email it writes a clear task title, a short summary, and a due date inferred from the message body. The result is a Trello board that mirrors your real commitments instead of a 200-message inbox.
When to use it
Use it when your inbox is your de facto task list and things slip because you forget to manually copy them into a tracker. Best for solo operators, founders, and account managers who get work requests by email.
How it works
- 1A new email arriving in Gmail triggers the run.
- 2An OpenAI classification step labels the email as actionable, FYI, or ignore.
- 3A filter drops everything that isn't actionable.
- 4OpenAI extracts a task title, a one-line summary, and parses natural-language deadlines ("by Friday", "EOD Tuesday") into a concrete date.
- 5A Trello card is created in your triage list with the title, summary, and due date set.
- 6The original email is labeled "Triaged" so it's never processed twice.
