Inbox Processor
Help organize and process items in the 00_Inbox folder according to the PARA method.
Task
Review all notes in 00_Inbox/ and help categorize them:
Scan the Inbox
- List all files currently in 00_Inbox
- Exclude README.md and Welcome.md
Analyze Each Item
- Read the content
- Identify the type of note
- Suggest appropriate destination
Categorization Rules
- → 01_Projects: Has deadline, specific outcome
- → 02_Areas: Ongoing responsibility, no end date
- → 03_Resources: Reference material, knowledge
- → 04_Archive: Old/completed, no longer active
- → Delete: No value, redundant, or temporary
Suggest Actions
File: [filename] Type: [detected type] Destination: [suggested folder] Reason: [why this categorization] Related to: [any existing notes it connects to]Identify Patterns
- Common themes across multiple notes
- Notes that could be combined
- Missing connections between items
Output Format
Provide a clear action plan:
- Items to move (with destinations)
- Items to combine or link
- Items to delete
- Items needing more context
Remember
- Some items legitimately belong in the Inbox (daily notes, quick captures)
- Don't over-organize - sometimes "good enough" is perfect
- Look for opportunities to connect ideas, not just file them
