# Declawed

# Inbox brimming with stank corporate turds? 
# (Cat) nip that sh*t in the bud!!!

###  Declawed is a configurable, prompt purrr-fectable LLM mail management assisty-kitty.
###  Puuurfect for tedious daily sorts – you know – when it feels like you'll never get that catnip-stuffed mouse dangling on the end of the string.

# Stop drilling byzantine menus to configure filters  don't even work.
# Short, declartive prompts = wrappingp marketing-slop email's feet in tin foil and throwing it in the bathtub.

###  Short, declartive prompts are discerning, unlike filters.  They whirk whiskerous wonders on forums/feeds where valuable insights are solid-gold, but only 10% of  volume.
### With some refinement, promtping runs auto and cleans your that stank litter inbox. 
### Morning greets you with that fresh spring-meadow armoma of opportunities and insights --  like its fucking 1998 again.


# More secure than the blue-plate crustacean
A local Model Context Protocol (MCP) server you create ad configgure integrates with an LLM API you choose, a local model, or whatever your nine lives desire. Trojajedm nastie, privacy nackdoors and other goblins  are not lurking in a black box install or opaque supply-chain.

# Cat-o-matic
The library easily interfaces with  mail and calendar app APIs (or about any other service you want to plug in) ... it keeps things moving while you chase your tail or take a 19-hour nap in a sunbeam.

# Scope and Architecture

## Current implementation contemplates:
-- Claude Desktop 
-- Building/connectiing a Local Model Context Protocol Server
-- A DNS-config’d domain, with MX records pointing to:
-- A commercial or self-hosted SMTP Serve

## Coming soonish:
-- Our own custom UI
-- Suppost for wiring up local LLMs.

# Setup

### 1. Install Node.js (v16+ required).

```bash
node --version
npm --version
```

If not installed, grab it from [nodejs.org](https://nodejs.org/).

### 2. Clone and Install

```bash
git clone https://github.com/kjannette/deClawed-Assisty-Kitty.git
cd deClawed-Assity-Kitty
npm install
```

### 3. Set Up Google Cloud Credentials

#### 3a. Create a Google Cloud Project

1. Go to [Google Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com/)
2. Sign in with the Google account that owns the target Gmail
3. Click the project dropdown (top-left) > **New Project**
4. Name it (e.g., `assistant-mcp`) and click **Create**
5. Select the new project from the dropdown

#### 3b. Enable APIs

In **APIs & Services > Library**, enable:
- **Gmail API**
- **Google Sheets API** (if mapping mail to sheets)
- **Google Calendar API** (if using calendar event creation, etc.s)

#### 3c. Configure the OAuth Consent Screen

1. Go to **Google Auth Platform > Branding** (or **APIs & Services > OAuth consent screen**)
2. Set user type to **External**, click **Create**
3. Fill in app name, support email, and developer contact email
4. Save and continue

#### 3d. Add OAuth Scopes

In **Google Auth Platform > Data Access**, add:
- `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/gmail.modify`
- `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/spreadsheets` (for Sheets integration)
- `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.events` (for Calendar integration)

#### 3e. Add Yourself as a Test User

Go to **Google Auth Platform > Audience** and add each Gmail address you'll use.

#### 3f. Create OAuth Client Credentials

1. Go to **Google Auth Platform > Clients** (or **APIs & Services > Credentials**)
2. Click **Create Client** > Application type: **Desktop app**
3. **Download the JSON**, rename it to `credentials.json`
4. Place it in the project root

### 4. Configure Accounts

Create `accounts.json` in the project root. Each key is an account alias with its own token file and optional Sheets/Calendar config:

```json
{
"work": {
  "label": "you@yourdomain.com",
  "tokenFile": "token.json",
  "spreadsheetId": "YOUR_GOOGLE_SHEET_ID",
  "calendarId": "primary"
},
"secondary": {
  "label": "you@gmail.com",
  "tokenFile": "token-secondary.json"
}
}
```

- **`label`** -- display name (typically the email address)
- **`tokenFile`** -- per-account OAuth token (auto-generated during auth)
- **`spreadsheetId`** -- Google Sheets ID for recruiter contact logging (optional)
- **`calendarId`** -- Google Calendar ID for event creation (optional, `"primary"` uses the default calendar)

### 5. Authorize Gmail Accounts

Build and run the auth script for each account:

```bash
npm run auth              # authorizes the "work" account
npm run auth -- secondary # authorizes the "secondary" account
```

Each run will:
1. Print a URL -- open it in your browser
2. Sign in and click **Allow**
3. You'll land on a "localhost refused to connect" page (normal)
4. Copy the **entire URL** from the address bar and paste it back into the terminal
5. The script saves the token file (e.g., `token.json` or `token-secondary.json`)

You only need to do this once per account. Tokens auto-refresh.

### 6. Write the Prompts

Two plain-text prompt files in `src/prompts/` control the workflow:

| File | Phase | Purpose |
|------|-------|---------|
| `src/prompts/classify-emails.txt` | 1 -- Classification | Defines categories A/B/C/D and how to sort emails |
| `src/prompts/take-action-on-emails.txt` | 2 -- Action | Tells the LLM what to do with each category (delete, log, schedule, etc.) |

**Tips:**
- Use clear, explicit category definitions with example language
- Handle ambiguous cases (e.g., "If an email both acknowledges receipt AND requests action, classify as B")
- Prompt files are loaded at runtime -- edit them anytime, no rebuild required

### 7. Build

```bash
npm run build
```

Compiles `src/**/*.ts` into `build/`.

### 8. Configure Claude Desktop

Edit your Claude Desktop config:

```bash
code ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
```

Add the server:

```json
{
"mcpServers": {
  "assistant": {
    "command": "/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/node",
    "args": [
      "/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/deClawed-Assity-Kitty/build/index.js"
    ]
  }
}
}
```

Replace paths with the output of `which node` and your actual project location.

### 9. Restart Claude Desktop

Fully quit (**Cmd+Q**, not just close the window) and reopen. The `assistant` server should appear under **Connectors**.

## MCP Tools

| Tool | Description |
|------|-------------|
| `fetch_new_emails` | Fetches unread emails for a given account. Classification and action prompts are automatically appended to the response. |
| `delete_emails` | Moves emails to trash by Gmail message ID. Used for categories A (acknowledgements) and C (rejections). |
| `append_to_summary` | Logs classified emails to per-account summary files in `mailSummaries/`. Entries older than 30 days are auto-purged. |
| `log_recruiter_contact` | Logs or updates recruiter contact info in a Google Sheet. Merges rows by recruiter email + role. |
| `create_calendar_event` | Creates a Google Calendar event for scheduled calls/interviews. Skips past dates. Includes meeting links and contact info. |

## MCP Prompts

| Prompt | Account | Description |
|--------|---------|-------------|
| `review_emails` | work | Loads the classification + action prompts for the work inbox |
| `review_secondary_emails` | secondary | Same workflow for the secondary inbox |

Invoke these from Claude Desktop's Connectors menu, or just type "Review my inbox" / "Review my secondary inbox."

---

## Two-Phase Workflow

**Phase 1 -- Classify**

The LLM calls `fetch_new_emails`, which returns email data with the classification instructions from `classify-emails.txt` appended. Each email is sorted into:

| Category | Meaning | Action |
|----------|---------|--------|
| **A** | Acknowledgement / auto-reply | Delete |
| **B** | Advancement to next step | Summarize + log |
| **C** | Rejection | Delete |
| **D** | Other / uncategorized | Summarize + log |

**Phase 2 -- Act**

Using `take-action-on-emails.txt`, the LLM:
- Calls `delete_emails` for A + C
- Calls `append_to_summary` for B + D
- Calls `log_recruiter_contact` to track contacts in Sheets (if configured)
- Calls `create_calendar_event` for any scheduled interviews/calls (if configured)

## Key Commands

| Command | Purpose |
|---------|---------|
| `npm run build` | Recompile after editing source files |
| `npm run auth` | Authorize the default (work) account |
| `npm run auth -- secondary` | Authorize the secondary account |
| `npm test` | Run the test suite |
| `npm run test:watch` | Run tests in watch mode |
