Autonomous Commitment Triage Agent to Notion

What it does
This is an agent-driven triage system, not a fixed pipeline. It reads each new email, reasons about who owes what to whom, and keeps a living Notion board in sync. Commitments you made become cards in "My Commitments"; things others promised you go to "Awaiting Others". The agent updates, closes, or re-dates cards as threads evolve.
When to use it
Use it when your accountability is two-sided and messy — you need to track both what you owe and what you are waiting on, and you want the system to reconcile follow-up threads rather than create duplicates.
How it works
- 1A new Gmail message triggers the agent.
- 2The agent reads the thread and determines the direction of obligation.
- 3A logic branch routes the item to the correct board column or flags it as an update to an existing card.
- 4The agent extracts owner, deliverable, and due date.
- 5A Notion action creates or updates the matching card with status.
- 6The agent leaves a short reasoning note so the board stays auditable.
