Processing Intake Jobs

An intake job means new items have arrived in the inbox and need triage.

Steps

1. Read this job card to find the referenced items (each entry in items: has a ref pointing to an inbox card)
2. Check for an applicable guide — see the compiled reference in _content/docs/generated/ if available
3. Read each referenced item to understand what it is
4. For each item, follow the guide's triage rules and actions. Without a guide:
   • Move to a permanent location under _content/ if it's worth keeping
   • Trash with bbx rm <path> if it's not useful
   • Ask the user a question if you need guidance (create a question card)
5. When all items are triaged, commit your work
6. Run bbx finish {thisJobFile} to complete the job

Important

• Commit your work as you go
• The bbx finish command only deletes the job file — make sure your actual work is committed first
• Read items before deciding — don't judge by filename alone
