Summary
Add a high-confidence entry point to QuickFiler that shows only emails whose top suggested destination folder has a probability at or above a configurable threshold (default 90%). Emails with no suggestion above the threshold are excluded from the view. Intent: clear the inbox of high-confidence, known-destination items so the user can focus on ambiguous ones.
Approach (selected: least rework)
Folder probabilities are computed lazily per-email after the QuickFiler window is shown (in LoadSecondaryAsync), not at data-load time. The least-rework solution is therefore an alternative entry point plus a post-scoring removal pass, rather than a datamodel-stage filter or an in-GUI toggle.
- New ribbon button ("QuickFiler — High Confidence") launches QuickFiler in high-confidence mode.
- After per-item scoring completes (
LoadSecondaryAsync), item groups whose top folder score is below round(threshold * 1000) are removed from the view on the UI thread.
- Threshold is a persisted user setting (default
0.90) with an enable flag, plus a runtime input control to change the percentage.
Scope of changes (per research)
UtilitiesCS/OutlookObjects/Folder/FolderScorer.cs — add TopScore().
UtilitiesCS/Interfaces/IGlobals/IAppQuickFilerSettings.cs + TaskMaster/AppGlobals/AppQuickFilerSettings.cs + TaskMaster/Properties/Settings.settings + Settings.Designer.cs — add HighConfidenceModeEnabled (bool, default false) and HighConfidenceThreshold (double, default 0.9).
QuickFiler/Interfaces/IQfcCollectionController.cs + QuickFiler/Controllers/QfcCollectionController.cs — add RemoveBelowThresholdAsync(double).
QuickFiler/Controllers/QfcFormController.cs — conditional removal call after LoadSecondaryAsync.
TaskMaster/Ribbon/RibbonController.cs, RibbonViewer.cs, RibbonExplorer.xml — new entry point button, threshold input control, enable toggle.
Acceptance criteria
- A new QuickFiler entry point launches QuickFiler in high-confidence mode.
- When high-confidence mode is enabled, emails whose top suggested folder probability is below the configured threshold are not shown in the view.
- Emails with no folder suggestion above the threshold (including none at all) are excluded.
- The default threshold is 90% (0.90) and is persisted as a user setting.
- The threshold percentage is changeable at runtime via a ribbon input control, with validation, and persists across sessions.
- With high-confidence mode disabled, QuickFiler behaves exactly as today (no filtering).
- New/changed logic is covered by MSTest + Moq + FluentAssertions tests; toolchain (CSharpier, analyzers, nullable, MSTest) passes.
Notes / known limitations
- First iteration applies the filter to the initial loaded batch (consistent with current batch-1 scope); re-application across later background batches is out of scope for v1.
