Use session tasks for batch visibility:

TaskCreate: "Scan and classify inbox items"
  activeForm: "Scanning inbox..."

TaskCreate: "Route items to destinations"
  activeForm: "Routing inbox items..."

1. Scan Inbox

• List all .md files in 00-inbox/
• Read and classify each

1. Present Plan

``` ## Processing Plan

| # | Content Preview | Type | Project | Action | |---|-----------------|------|---------|--------| | 1 | "Shipped login..." | daily | project-a | Update daily | | 2 | "Blocked on API..." | blocker | project-a | Create blocker |

Proceed? (y/n/edit) ```

1. Route Items

• Route to appropriate handler (/daily, /block, /decide, etc.)
• Mark processed inbox files

1. Append to Vault Log

• Append one inbox-route entry per batch to 01-index/_vault-log.md (see .claude/rules/vault-log.md)
