Directives
Workflow controls that change how Airbox processes and replies
Syntax
Directives start with ! and can combine with targets and verbs (commands):
!noreply @claude #summarize !thread #extract
Built-in directives
| Directive | Effect |
|---|---|
| !noreply | Process the email and log the result, but do not send an email reply |
| !thread | Include the full quoted thread as context (within size limits) |
Reply toggle
Each inbox has an “Email a reply back” setting in the dashboard. When off, Airbox acts silently (like !noreply). The per-email !noreply directive overrides the inbox default for that message.
