Search Queries (q parameter)

Gmail search syntax for GMAIL_FETCH_EMAILS:

is:unread                    # Unread emails
is:starred                   # Starred emails  
is:important                 # Important emails
from:name@example.com        # From specific sender
to:name@example.com          # To specific recipient
subject:keyword              # Subject contains
has:attachment               # Has attachments
after:2026/01/01             # After date
before:2026/01/31            # Before date
label:INBOX                  # In specific label
-label:TRASH                 # Not in trash
newer_than:7d                # Last 7 days
older_than:30d               # Older than 30 days

Combine with spaces: is:unread from:client@example.com after:2026/01/01

Common Workflows

1. Daily Inbox Triage (Recommended 15-30 min/day)

Goal: Process inbox to zero efficiently

Steps:

# 1. Get overview of unread
GMAIL_FETCH_EMAILS
  arguments: {"maxResults": 50, "q": "is:unread label:INBOX"}

# 2. Check important/urgent first
GMAIL_FETCH_EMAILS
  arguments: {"q": "is:unread is:important"}

# 3. Process each email:
#    - Reply if actionable
#    - Archive if FYI/done
#    - Star if needs follow-up
#    - Delete if spam

# 4. Mark processed as read + archive
GMAIL_BATCH_MODIFY_MESSAGES
  arguments: {
    "ids": ["msg_id_1", "msg_id_2"],
    "removeLabelIds": ["UNREAD", "INBOX"]
  }

The STAR Rule:

• Span 2 minutes? → Do it now
• Trash it? → Delete spam/irrelevant
• Archive it? → Done, no action needed
• Reply/Respond → Draft if complex

2. Achieving Inbox Zero

Process every email with a decision:

Batch archive processed emails:

GMAIL_BATCH_MODIFY_MESSAGES
  arguments: {
    "ids": ["id1", "id2", "id3"],
    "removeLabelIds": ["INBOX"]
  }

3. Finding Specific Emails

By sender:

GMAIL_FETCH_EMAILS
  arguments: {"q": "from:name@example.com", "maxResults": 20}

By subject:

GMAIL_FETCH_EMAILS
  arguments: {"q": "subject:invoice", "maxResults": 20}

Recent unread with attachments:

GMAIL_FETCH_EMAILS
  arguments: {"q": "is:unread has:attachment newer_than:7d"}

Full thread context:

GMAIL_GET_THREAD
  arguments: {"threadId": "thread_id_here"}

4. Sending Emails

New email:

GMAIL_SEND_EMAIL
  arguments: {
    "to": "recipient@example.com",
    "subject": "Subject line",
    "body": "Email body text",
    "cc": "cc@example.com"  # optional
  }

Reply to thread:

GMAIL_REPLY_TO_EMAIL
  arguments: {
    "threadId": "thread_id",
    "body": "Reply text here"
  }

Save draft for later:

GMAIL_CREATE_DRAFT
  arguments: {
    "to": "recipient@example.com",
    "subject": "Draft subject",
    "body": "Work in progress..."
  }

5. Bulk Cleanup

Mark multiple as read:

GMAIL_BATCH_MODIFY_MESSAGES
  arguments: {
    "ids": ["id1", "id2", "id3"],
    "removeLabelIds": ["UNREAD"]
  }

Archive multiple:

GMAIL_BATCH_MODIFY_MESSAGES
  arguments: {
    "ids": ["id1", "id2", "id3"],
    "removeLabelIds": ["INBOX"]
  }

Star for follow-up:

GMAIL_BATCH_MODIFY_MESSAGES
  arguments: {
    "ids": ["id1", "id2"],
    "addLabelIds": ["STARRED"]
  }

6. Label Organization

List all labels:

GMAIL_LIST_LABELS
  arguments: {}

Create project label:

GMAIL_CREATE_LABEL
  arguments: {"name": "Projects/ClientName"}

Apply label to emails:

GMAIL_BATCH_MODIFY_MESSAGES
  arguments: {
    "ids": ["id1", "id2"],
    "addLabelIds": ["Label_ID_Here"]
  }

Best Practices

Productivity

1. Process in batches: Dedicated time blocks, not continuous checking
2. 2-minute rule: If reply takes <2 min, do it now
3. Touch once: Make a decision on each email when you read it
4. Unsubscribe aggressively: Reduce incoming noise
5. Use filters: Auto-label/archive predictable emails

Safety

1. Always confirm before bulk deletes
2. Use maxResults to limit scope
3. Archive instead of delete when uncertain
4. Check trash before permanent deletion

Organization

1. Keep labels simple (max 2 levels deep)
2. Search is often better than complex folders
3. Star for follow-up, archive everything else
4. Weekly review of starred items

Common Scenarios

"Check my inbox"

# Get unread count and recent emails
GMAIL_FETCH_EMAILS
  arguments: {"q": "is:unread label:INBOX", "maxResults": 20}

"Find emails from [person]"

GMAIL_FETCH_EMAILS
  arguments: {"q": "from:person@email.com", "maxResults": 20}

"Send email to [person] about [topic]"

GMAIL_SEND_EMAIL
  arguments: {
    "to": "person@email.com",
    "subject": "Topic",
    "body": "Message content"
  }

"Archive all newsletters"

# First find them
GMAIL_FETCH_EMAILS
  arguments: {"q": "from:newsletter OR from:noreply label:INBOX", "maxResults": 50}

# Then archive batch
GMAIL_BATCH_MODIFY_MESSAGES
  arguments: {
    "ids": ["id1", "id2", ...],
    "removeLabelIds": ["INBOX"]
  }

"Mark everything as read"

GMAIL_FETCH_EMAILS
  arguments: {"q": "is:unread label:INBOX", "maxResults": 100}

GMAIL_BATCH_MODIFY_MESSAGES
  arguments: {
    "ids": [...all ids...],
    "removeLabelIds": ["UNREAD"]
  }

Integration Notes

Rube MCP Connection

• Tools accessed via Rube API at app.rubeai.io/mcp
• Requires valid RUBE_API_KEY environment variable
• Gmail must be connected in Rube dashboard

Tool Call Format

# Via curl
curl -s "https://app.rubeai.io/mcp" r
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" r
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $RUBE_API_KEY" r
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"GMAIL_FETCH_EMAILS","arguments":{"maxResults":10,"q":"is:unread"}}}'

Error Handling

• Rate limits: Respect Gmail API quotas
• Auth errors: Re-authenticate Rube connection
• Not found: Verify message/thread IDs

Remember

Email is a tool, not a job. The goal is efficient communication, not perfect organization. Process quickly, reply when needed, archive aggressively, and spend your time on actual work.
