This governs *both* anchored queries: the scan above and the backlog-residue probe below. They must meet at the same instant or mail falls between them permanently. Gmail's day-resolution operators fail two different ways: =after:YYYY/MM/DD HH:MM:SS= is not valid syntax at all — Gmail parses the space as a term separator, treats =HH:MM:SS= as a search term that never matches, and returns 0 results, silently masking unread mail — while =before:YYYY/MM/DD= is valid but excludes the named day entirely, so pairing it with a second-resolution scan leaves the whole anchor day covered by neither query. The engine supplies =<anchor-epoch>= because this source declares =ANCHOR: epoch=. + +The rule binds the *anchor* windows only. The date-slice walk below deliberately uses =before:<oldest-full-day-seen>= at day resolution — safe there because consecutive slices overlap and get deduped by message id. ⚠ *Do NOT add =-category:promotions -category:social=.* That filter masked 67 promo+social messages across two runs (2026-05-04, 2026-05-06), both needing a follow-up sweep. Pull the full unfiltered set; the trash-leaning bias in Classify handles promotions and social directly. +⚠ *The MCP caps at =maxResults=100= and exposes NO =pageToken= parameter.* The response carries a =nextPageToken=, but the tool can't consume it, so a pile over 100 is silently truncated — the tail below the cap never gets classified, and every later anchored sweep skips it (it predates the new anchor). This is exactly how a 300+ backlog accumulated invisibly by 2026-07-08. Two consequences: + +- *Never treat a 100-row result as complete.* When a scan returns exactly 100, walk the tail in *date slices*: re-query with =before:<oldest-full-day-seen>= (day resolution), repeat until a page returns fewer than 100, dedupe by message id across slices (the day-resolution boundary overlaps). +- *Never report =resultSizeEstimate= as a count.* It's unreliable — observed stuck at "201" across three different queries whose real union exceeded 300. + +*** Backlog-residue check (every sweep — cheap, mandatory) + +The anchored scan is blind to anything unread from *before* the anchor.

Never fold the residue into a quiet sweep — an anchored "no changes" claim is only true for the window the scan saw. (Added 2026-07-08 after ~300 pre-anchor unread accumulated unseen; the probe returns actual messages, so it works where the estimate lies. Shipped with a day-resolution cutoff that hid the entire anchor day; fixed to epoch 2026-07-16 after a home sweep reported the backlog clear while two July-15 messages sat unread.) + ** Classify Bias: *trash-leaning* — personal Gmail is high noise volume. |
