Triage inbox

The Triage inbox is a holding pen for captures that you want to file yourself rather than have Moonjar auto-classify. Send something to triage and it skips the classifier entirely — no document type, no field extraction. It still gets saved and indexed for search; you just decide where it lands.

  • The capture is unusual and you’d rather pick the type yourself than let the classifier guess.
  • You’re forwarding a batch of emails you’ll sort through later.
  • You’re saving for someone else (e.g. shared captures) and want to review before filing.

Three ways to send a capture to triage:

  • iOS share sheet. In the Moonjar share form, toggle Send to triage before tapping Save. See Capture a webpage.
  • In-app Capture tab. In the note or URL mode, expand “Add a note, reminder, or send to triage” and turn on Send to triage. Photo, PDF, and scan modes don’t have this toggle.
  • Email subject command. Add !triage to the subject of any email you forward to save@in.moonjar.io. See Capture by email.

Open the Triage screen from the More menu. Each row shows the capture’s title and your “why I’m saving this” note (or a fallback like the source URL’s hostname).

Tap a row to File as… — pick one of the 15 document types and the capture leaves the inbox.

The ”…” overflow on each row exposes more actions:

  • File as… — same as tapping the row.
  • Open document — jump to the document detail screen without changing its triage state.
  • Keep untyped — clear the triage flag without setting a type. The document stays in your library with no document_type.
  • Delete — remove the capture entirely. Confirms first.

Pull-to-refresh re-fetches the list.

What’s different about a triaged document

Section titled “What’s different about a triaged document”
  • It’s saved with no document_type, no summary, and no extracted fields — the classifier was skipped.
  • It still has its source content (URL, text, file) and is indexed for search.
  • Your free-text note (if you typed one) is stored on the document as capture_note so it’s not overwritten when you later run the classifier.
  • It does not trigger the trip-suggestion matcher, even if the content mentions a place you have a trip for. Routing is your call.
