Keysat 036226ed74 Scope the email guide to the top-level digest send files
Extend docs/guides/email.md paths: frontmatter (and its AGENTS.md index entry) to
include backend/digest_mailer.py and backend/smtp_send.py, so the guide auto-loads
when editing the outbound-digest send path — not just backend/email_integration/**.
Portability-checker: compliant.

# Email capture & drafts (Gmail)
Read this before editing Gmail capture or draft creation.
## What it does
- `backend/email_integration/` captures Gmail via **domain-wide delegation** (`credentials.py`, `matcher.py`, `parser.py`, `db.py`, `sync.py`, `scheduler.py`, `routes.py`) and creates Tier-B in-thread drafts (`compose.py`). It has its own `migrations/`.
- Captured email becomes CRM activity through a **propose → approve** flow — nothing lands on a contact record until a human approves the proposal.
## Hard rule
- **Agents draft; humans send.** Never let an agent send email, post, or contact an LP autonomously. Tier-B `compose.py` only *creates* a Gmail draft for human review.
## Outbound mail — the daily digest (internal; exempt from "agents draft")
The CRM sends an internal **daily activity digest** to the fund's own admins. This is the
ONE automated send path, and it does **not** violate the hard rule above: that rule governs
outward **LP/prospect** contact. An internal ops email to the team's own inboxes is a
different category. **Never extend this path to send to LPs/prospects.**
- **Transport selector: `backend/digest_mailer.py`** (top-level, not in this package) —
`send_digest(conn, to_addrs, subject, body)` picks **Gmail-DWD (preferred) → SMTP (fallback)**.
DWD-impersonation sender = `CRM_DIGEST_SENDER` env, else the first active admin.
- **Gmail-DWD path: `gmail_send.py`** (this package) — reuses `credentials.py`'s
`DWDCredentialProvider` with the **`gmail.compose`** scope to call `users.messages.send`
(REST, mirrors `compose.py`; body is `{raw}` not the draft's `{message:{raw}}`). The
deployment's DWD grant includes `gmail.compose` (which authorizes send) but **not** the
narrow `gmail.send` — so request `gmail.compose`. Verified live 2026-06-15 (token mint +
a real `messages.send`).
- **SMTP fallback: `backend/smtp_send.py`** (top-level) — stdlib smtplib reading `SMTP_*` env,
populated on the box by the **Configure Digest SMTP** Start9 action (writes
`/data/secrets/smtp/*`; entrypoint exports `SMTP_*`). A dedicated per-package account,
independent of any StartOS system-wide SMTP.
- The admin **`POST /api/admin/digest/test-email`** restricts recipients to the active-admin
set (not an open relay), and logs send failures rather than echoing them (an auth error can
carry a token/credential). Digest *content* generation (Phase B) runs on **Spark, never
Claude** — the digest is deliberately un-anonymized.
## Known gap
- Tier-B drafts currently reply to the **LP only**; reply-all is the next change (see AGENTS.md → Current state).
