A Sunday list of what's safe to archive -- old threads, newsletters, FYIs -- so inbox zero takes minutes, not willpower.
The inbox has 4,000 unread messages, and the reason isn't laziness -- it's that every archive decision costs a tiny judgment, and 4,000 tiny judgments is a workday.
So the pile grows, and the important mail drowns in it.
This routine runs every Sunday. It goes through your inbox and suggests what can safely be archived: newsletters you've read, dead threads, and FYI messages that needed nothing.
You approve the batch and clear it in one pass. The inbox becomes a working tool again.
Copy this prompt into a new Littlebird routine. Edit the days and times to fit your schedule.

Chat skills wait for you. Routines do not.
With a Claude or ChatGPT skill, you are the integration: copy the email, paste the calendar, explain the background, then carry the answer back out.

It suggests; you approve. Nothing moves without your say.
It's free on the Basic plan. Plus costs $17 per month billed annually or $20 month to month, with a free two-week trial.
