Gmail bot: shortlist ML unsubscribes, do them for you, and ping important mail

Mailing lists pile up; important mail still needs a human glance.

What hurt

@horisan_x connected Grok Bot to Gmail: it shortlists mailing-list unsubscribe candidates, unsubscribes on their behalf, and periodically checks/notifies about mail that looks important. They note it is handy for personal use, not work. Tip only. Not affiliated with xAI.

What to install or create

Connect Gmail → shortlist ML → unsubscribe with your OK → routine for important mail.

Bots

  • Inbox hygiene

    Shortlists ML unsubscribes and pings important personal mail.

Plugins

  • Gmail

    Required

Routines

  • None on the first run. Watch one manual pass first.

The prompt

This is a tip, not a pasteable system prompt. The author did not publish one. Follow the first-run steps.

First run

  1. 1Read https://x.com/horisan_x/status/2114499930014564793 (credit @horisan_x).
  2. 2Connect Gmail to a personal (non-work) bot.
  3. 3Ask it to shortlist mailing-list unsubscribe candidates; review the list.
  4. 4Approve the batch so it unsubscribes on your behalf.
  5. 5Add a light routine: check for mail that looks important and notify you — keep work mail human.

Approval fence

You approve the unsubscribe batch; bot never decides “important” alone for work mail.

What to tweak

Steal the two jobs: unsubscribe shortlist + important-mail ping.
