Why it's useful
Mailbox work can go through your AI assistant for any IMAP provider, and drafts let you review a message before it is sent.
What you could do with it
- Ask your agent to check the inbox for unread email since a given date and summarise what is waiting.
- Search for emails from a particular sender, then open the full text of one of them.
- Have your agent write a draft to a colleague about tomorrow's meeting and leave it in drafts for you to review.
Written from its documentation: what it says it can do, not what our checks found.
Maintenance
Not measuredNo release date is on record for this package yet. The nightly publisher check records one as it reaches each npm package, about once every ten nights.
Release activity only: it says nothing about quality or safety, and a finished small package can be fine without releases. How it is measured
What this does not cover

Receipt history: every signed receipt for every version of this listing, and what changed between them.

Static scanned
- What it establishes
- Its published package, or for a hosted server its source repository at a recorded commit, was read file by file, without running it, by every check in our current scan.
- What it does not
- How it behaves when it runs, or anything the scan does not read yet: several rubric checks, the repository's history, and compiled code in folders named dist or build. For a hosted server, that the endpoint runs the code that was read. The ooruby Index sets out exactly what was read.
- Exactly what was read
- Version 1.0.0, the file with digest sha512-V4u/BXKl1YsZdEkNt14nwzJUcwp96nYOZ8d3wP2kZ1UOcad9xDF3oM1M21BhfjDv/HPkrQjka5EJtSt7SYU2Cg==, as the registry publishes it. A published version cannot be replaced, so this names the same bytes for anyone who checks.
- Authentication
- Runs locally. No hosted endpoint is listed for this package. You run it on your own machine, so there is no endpoint of ours to authenticate against.

No build provenance published. The repository above is the one the publisher declared, and nothing links it to the package you would install. That is not a mark against this listing, since most packages are published this way, but it is a check nobody can run.
