# Mail Packets
|
|
|
|
Use this folder for primary minion-to-minion communication.
|
|
|
|
This is the mailbox-style coordination surface. New actionable requests,
|
|
responses, and verdicts should default here rather than going into shared chat
|
|
threads.
|
|
|
|
## Packet Layout
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
minions/mail/
|
|
YYYY-MM-DD-sender-to-recipient-topic/
|
|
request.md
|
|
response.md
|
|
verdict.md # optional
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Naming Rule
|
|
|
|
Use:
|
|
|
|
`YYYY-MM-DD-<sender>-to-<recipient>-<topic>`
|
|
|
|
Examples:
|
|
|
|
- `2026-04-14-pm-to-sm-packet-clarification`
|
|
- `2026-04-14-cm-to-pm-implementation-pressure`
|
|
|
|
## Ownership Rule
|
|
|
|
- sender writes `request.md`
|
|
- addressed recipient writes `response.md`
|
|
- gate owner writes `verdict.md` when needed
|
|
- no minion edits another minion's packet file
|
|
|
|
## Workflow Rule
|
|
|
|
1. open packet
|
|
2. commit packet request
|
|
3. recipient responds in owned file
|
|
4. gate owner records verdict if needed
|
|
5. `PM` mirrors durable state into shared docs and same-day chat summary
|
|
|
|
## Staged Rollout Rule
|
|
|
|
- already-open legacy chat packets may remain where they are until they close
|
|
- any new follow-up packet should open in `minions/mail/`
|
|
- do not mirror one active packet across both chat and mail
|
|
|
|
## Bootstrap Steps
|
|
|
|
Before opening or answering a mailbox packet, read:
|
|
|
|
1. `MEMORY.md`
|
|
2. `docs/project/mailbox-collaboration-model.md`
|
|
3. `minions/mail/README.md`
|
|
4. `minions/mail/packet-template.md`
|
|
|
|
## Packet Content Rule
|
|
|
|
Use `packet-template.md` as the default skeleton.
|
|
|
|
Keep packet files concise, explicit, and owner-labeled.
|
|
|
|
## Relationship To `minions/chat/`
|
|
|
|
- `minions/mail/` is the primary coordination surface
|
|
- `minions/chat/` is the PM-owned daily summary and historical continuity
|
|
surface
|
|

See `docs/project/mailbox-collaboration-model.md` for the full repo policy.
