Instructions
Step 1: Fetch Emails
Use the Gmail skill (Maton API) to fetch emails from romain@arcascience.ai.
- For "check my emails" → fetch last 10-20 unread or recent
- For "emails from today" → fetch last 24 hours
- For "reply to X" → fetch the specific thread
- For daily cron → fetch last 24 hours, all emails
Read the FULL content of each email (not just subject/snippet).
Step 2: Triage
Classify every email into one of these categories:
| Category | Criteria | Action |
|---|---|---|
| ✅ NEEDS REPLY | Direct question, meeting request, business inquiry, client request, colleague asking something | Draft a reply |
| ⚠️ FYI / ACTION | Forwarded info, CC'd threads, updates that may need follow-up later | Summarize, flag if action needed |
| ❌ IGNORE | Newsletters, promos, notifications, auto-sent, spam, self-sent | Skip |
Present the triage as a summary table FIRST, then drafts for each ✅ email.
Step 3: Identify Sender Context
For each email requiring a reply:
A. Check if sender is internal:
@arcascience.aiemails → internal colleague- Known internals: Julie Green (julie@arcascience.ai), María Lola Álvarez (marialola@arcascience.ai)
B. Check if sender is from a known pharma company:
- Look up
arcascience_dossiers/companies/for company dossier - Look up
arcascience_dossiers/stakeholders/for contact profile - Check
arcascience_dossiers/master_targeting_table.csvfor targeting data - If found: extract strategic entry angle, key challenges, therapeutic focus, buying pathway
C. If sender is unknown external:
- Infer company and role from email signature/domain
- Search web if needed for company context
- Draft a professional but measured response
Step 4: Draft Replies
Language Rule (ABSOLUTE — NO EXCEPTIONS)
Reply in the SAME language as the incoming email. If email is in French → draft in French. If in English → English. If in German → German. Never translate.

How to Attach
When drafting, if an attachment is relevant:
- Add a
PJ:line to the draft presentation:
────────────────────────────────────────
📧 DRAFT [N] — [Context]
To: [recipient]
Subject: Re: [subject]
Langue: [detected language]
Ton: [tone level]
Dossier: [company dossier found / not found]
📎 PJ: 2025_01_Arcascience_OnePager_VF.pdf
────────────────────────────────────────
- When sending via Gmail API, attach the file from the Sales Package path
- If multiple attachments are relevant, list them all but limit to max 3 per email (keep it focused)
- ALWAYS mention the attachment in the email body (e.g., "Vous trouverez en PJ notre one-pager..." or "Please find attached...")
Attachment Decision Rules
- First contact → ALWAYS attach the general one-pager
- Prospect mentions a specific therapeutic area → Attach clinical landscape one-pager
- Post-meeting follow-up → Attach whatever was discussed (proposal, deck, etc.)
- Legal/partnership discussion → Attach CDA or partnership contract blank
- Never attach contracts to cold prospects or unknown contacts
- Never attach internal-only documents (Sales Organisation package) to external contacts
- When in doubt → suggest the attachment to Romain in the draft and let him confirm
Step 7: Send (ONLY on explicit confirmation)
CRITICAL: NEVER send an email without Romain saying "envoyer X" or "send X" explicitly.
When confirmed:
- Send via Gmail skill with attachment(s) if specified
- Confirm delivery and list of PJ sent
- Log the sent email
