# Gmail Label Manager Skill

This skill automates the organization of unread Gmail messages by applying labels, removing unnecessary labels, and archiving emails, based on predefined patterns from **archived emails**.

## Features

1. **Automated Workflow Steps:**
    - Finds the first unread email.
    - Identifies the appropriate label using:
        - Dynamic analysis of labels on archived emails from the same sender.
        - Ignores labels from emails still in the inbox.
    - Adds the determined label(s) to the unread email.
    - Removes irrelevant label(s) from the email. Also remove irrelevant CATEGORY labels (`CATEGORY_PERSONAL`, `CATEGORY_PROMOTIONS`, `CATEGORY_UPDATES`, `UNREAD`, etc.).
    - Archives the email by removing the `INBOX` label.
    - Verifies the operation to ensure all changes are applied correctly.

2. **Customizable Patterns:**
    - Dynamically learns from archived emails—no static cache required.
    - Reduces dependency on external configurations.
