2. Execute the operation described above
3. Verify the result meets expected output format
4. Handle errors gracefully — retry transient failures, log and alert on persistent ones
5. Return structured output with status and any relevant data

If any required data is missing, request it from the user before proceeding.

Check npm registry (or PyPI) for latest versions of each dependency

For each outdated package, pull the changelog and summarize what changed (especially breaking changes)

Steps:
1. Validate all required inputs are available
2. Execute the operation described above
3. Verify the result meets expected output format
4. Handle errors gracefully — retry transient failures, log and alert on persistent ones
5. Return structured output with status and any relevant data

Analyze the input and classify it into the defined categories.

Classification approach:
1. Extract key signals from the content (keywords, sender, urgency markers, topic)
2. Match against category definitions
3. Assign confidence score (high/medium/low)
4. For ambiguous cases, classify as the more important/urgent category (err on the side of caution)

Output for each item: { category, priority, confidence, reasoning }

If an item could belong to multiple categories, pick the primary one and note the secondary.

Compile the gathered data into a structured report.

Format as clean Markdown with:
- Title/date header
- Executive summary (2-3 sentences)
- Key metrics section with actual numbers
- Detailed sections with bullet points
- Action items or recommendations at the end

Keep it scannable — busy people read reports in 30 seconds.
Use emoji sparingly for visual anchors (📊 metrics, ✅ wins, ⚠️ concerns, 📋 action items).
Include data comparisons: "X this period vs Y last period (↑Z%)"

If any data source was unavailable, note it clearly: "⚠️ [Source] data unavailable — excluded from this report."
