The queue of decisions a machine could not make. It is never a copy of state, which is what makes it the honest thing to alert on: an inbox that is empty means nothing is waiting on a human.

What is waiting

endpoint
What is waiting for a person to decide.
string
Which product. Optional when the board has one project.
Twelve kinds turn up here, and kind says which. The list is the product’s own — these are the labels the screen shows. detail carries why, in the provider’s words when the provider gave them.
Most of these are derived, not stored — they are read from the state they describe, so they go when it does. Only branch_suggestion, branch_deleted and error_reported are rows, and only those can be dismissed; the rest clear themselves when the thing they are about is dealt with.

Clearing it

endpoint
Take a branch somebody cut in a terminal and make it the card’s.
integer
Which card. Optional — the Inbox already guessed from the naming convention, and this is how you overrule the guess.
endpoint
Put the item away without acting on it. Both answer 204.
