send_email_reply

Create a draft reply to a Gmail email for user review and confirmation before sending.

Instructions

    Create a draft reply to an email.
    
    This tool creates a draft reply to the specified email with the provided text.
    The draft is saved but NOT sent automatically - user confirmation is required.
    
    Prerequisites:
    - The user must be authenticated. Check auth://status resource first.
    - You need an email ID, which can be obtained from list_emails() or search_emails()
    - You should use prepare_email_reply() first to get context for crafting a personalized reply
    
    Args:
        email_id (str): The ID of the email to reply to.
        reply_text (str): The text of the reply.
        include_original (bool, optional): Whether to include the original email in the reply. Defaults to True.
        
    Returns:
        Dict[str, Any]: The result of the operation, including:
            - success: Whether the operation was successful
            - message: A message describing the result
            - draft_id: The ID of the created draft
            - confirmation_required: Always True to indicate user confirmation is needed
            
    Example usage:
    1. First check authentication: access auth://status resource
    2. Get a list of emails: list_emails()
    3. Extract an email ID from the results
    4. Prepare a reply: prepare_email_reply(email_id="...")
    5. Create a draft reply: send_email_reply(email_id="...", reply_text="...")
    6. IMPORTANT: Always ask for user confirmation before sending
    7. After user confirms, use confirm_send_email(draft_id='" + draft["id"] + "')
    
    IMPORTANT: You must ALWAYS ask for user confirmation before sending any email.
    Never assume the email should be sent automatically.
