Personal Core

What this core is for

Personal intelligence engine

Behavior in the current codebase

• Scans one or more IMAP inboxes on a configurable interval and stores normalized email history in Redis.
• Extracts structured signals such as spending habits, upcoming events, subscriptions, deliveries, action items, and important notes.
• Publishes personal kernel tools for search, summarization, spending, plans, subscriptions, deliveries, actions, notes, and favorite places.
• Can inject bounded personal context into Hydra prompts per portal, with Discord/IRC/Telegram/Matrix controls.
• Supports notification routing through notifier portals with destination controls and per-cycle limits.
• Includes a dedicated WebUI tab for stats, context previews, manual scans, notification tests, and safe data cleanup actions.

Direct core support

Personal Core is background email intelligence. It scans connected inboxes, extracts structured profile signals, and exposes personal kernel tools plus optional prompt-context injection rather than acting like a direct Verba surface.
