# The inbox
> What Tylon stopped on, and what happened in the repositories without passing through it. A queue of decisions, never a copy of state.
The screen's own subtitle says it: *what the system stopped on, and what
happened in the repositories without passing through here.*
## Why it is not a notification list
Every item is a **decision somebody has to make**. Nothing arrives here to be
read and acknowledged — it arrives because Tylon could not act safely and
would not guess.
The items above are all the same shape: a pull request was closed on GitHub
without merging, and the card still expects it. Tylon will not decide whether
that was a mistake or a change of plan, so it asks — **Stop expecting this
pull request** is the answer, given once.
## What turns up
Twelve kinds, and they fall into three groups.
*Promotion refused* — a merge the provider would not do, with its reason.
*Branch created outside Tylon*, *Linked branch is gone*, *Merged outside
Tylon*, *PR closed on the provider*, *A connection needs reconnecting*.
The first of those is the useful one: somebody cut a branch in a terminal
whose name matches the team's convention. Tylon **offers** to link it and
only offers — attaching the wrong branch to a card on a guess is worse
than not noticing it.
*Waiting for a long time*, *A hotfix has not made it back*, *Broke in
production*, and the three about agents — one that could not finish, one
that offered a change, one that stopped answering its own pull request.
## It empties itself
Most of these are **derived**: read from the state they describe rather than
stored, so they disappear when that state does. Push to the branch and the
refusal goes; merge the back-merge and the debt goes.
Only three are rows you dismiss — a branch suggestion, a branch that
disappeared, and an error a monitor grouped.
That is what makes an empty inbox worth trusting, and what makes it the honest
thing to alert on: it is, by construction, the list of things a machine could
not decide.
