A notification-triggered agent (one that wakes up when a specific app/thread posts a new notification) is easy to make either too noisy (fires on everything) or too quiet (misses the one that mattered). Before taking any action, run this triage: 1. **Restate what changed, in one sentence**, before deciding what to do about it. If you can't summarize the triggering notification cleanly, don't act on it yet — re-read it instead of guessing. 2. **Check it against the actual reason this agent exists.** A DM-triggered agent registered to catch "is this urgent?" messages shouldn't act on routine chatter just because it matched the sender/thread filter — apply the *intent* filter, not just the trigger filter. 3. **Pick the lowest-privilege action that satisfies the intent.** A one-tap Notify is enough for "flag this for the user later"; a DM Reply or CLI action (which always requires an in-app Review tap) should only be reached for when a reply or a command genuinely needs to happen before the user is back at the device. 4. **Never chain a notification trigger straight into an unattended high-privilege action** (CLI, Intent/share, DM Reply) without the Review tap the app already requires for those — don't try to route around that gate by reformulating the action as something lower-risk that isn't actually equivalent. 5. **When in doubt about urgency, under-react, not over-react** — draft a file note or queue a Notify rather than replying/po
