Stripe billing resolution watcher

by recued-core v1

Scheduled adopter for Stripe billing recovery exception rows in data.shared. It reads the outbound-follow-up watch ledger, re-reads one watched invoice and one watched payment from Stripe, and marks the shared row responded_closed when the source of truth says the invoice is paid/void/uncollectible or the payment no longer needs customer action. It preserves the origin recipe id and does not send mail, notify customers, update Stripe, retry charges, capture payments, void invoices, or create refunds.

Complete workflow

One-person-company billing workflow pack over the Stripe capability pack. It installs operating views for daily billing review, invoice recovery exceptions, payment exceptions, and customer cleanup, plus owner-approved recovery-exception email actions that seed the shared reply watcher so customer responses re-enter the daily work loop. Stripe native reminders, failed-payment emails, Smart Retries, and Billing Automations own routine recovery; Stripe invoice sends, refunds, voids, cancellations, and payouts stay in the Stripe capability pack's approval-gated operations.

You are viewing one recipe in this workflow. Installing it opens the complete pack so its other recipes and background automations arrive together.

billingstripeinvoice-recoveryrecovery-exceptions
by recued-core pinned v1

Read-only daily billing cockpit for a one-person company. It scans recent Stripe invoices, payments, and customers, then shows open invoice pressure, payment exceptions, and customer data gaps without sending invoices, issuing refunds, or changing Stripe records.

billingstripeback-officecashflow
by recued-core pinned v1

Read-only Stripe invoice recovery exception queue. It assumes Stripe native reminders, failed-payment emails, Smart Retries, and Billing Automations own routine recovery. It surfaces invoices that may need owner exception handling: subscription invoices whose recovery has already started and remains unpaid, and normal invoices past the configured exception window. It drafts an owner action plan without sending invoices or emails.

billingstripeinvoice-recoveryrecovery-exceptions
by recued-core pinned v1

Action half for the Stripe invoice recovery exception queue. Use this only when Stripe native reminders, failed-payment emails, Smart Retries, or Billing Automations are insufficient: missing primary email with an owner-supplied recipient, additional recipient, custom owner context, disabled recovery, or exhausted recovery. The recipe re-reads the invoice and customer live from Stripe, confirms the invoice remains unpaid and exception-eligible, drafts one concise exception note, sends it through the mail-send approval gate, links the sent mail to the Stripe invoice/customer, and seeds data.shared watch state so the watcher can close the loop. It never changes Stripe invoices, payments, customers, subscriptions, refunds, or payouts.

billingstripeinvoice-recoveryrecovery-exceptions
by recued-core pinned v1

Read-only payment exception queue for Stripe. It separates PaymentIntents that may need customer action from statuses that should stay internal, while assuming Stripe native failed-payment emails, confirmation emails, Smart Retries, and Billing Automations own routine recovery. Customer-actionable rows should only be followed up manually when a documented exception applies.

billingstripepaymentspayment-exceptions
by recued-core pinned v1

Action half for the Stripe payment exceptions queue. Use this only when Stripe native failed-payment emails, payment-confirmation emails, Smart Retries, or Billing Automations are insufficient: missing primary email with an owner-supplied recipient, additional recipient, custom owner context, unavailable recovery, disabled recovery, or exhausted recovery. The recipe re-reads the payment and customer live from Stripe, confirms the status requires customer payment action, sends the owner-configured subject/body or a deterministic fallback through the mail-send approval gate, links the sent mail to the Stripe payment/customer, and seeds data.shared watch state so the watcher can close the loop. It never calls AI, captures payments, retries charges, updates payment methods, creates refunds, changes invoices, changes subscriptions, or mutates Stripe records.

Read-only Stripe customer cleanup queue. It finds customers missing email or display name so billing, support, and invoice follow-up stay usable without automatically updating Stripe records.

Watch outbound follow-up replies
Background automation

Reactive reply-side of the outbound follow-up loop. On every inbound mail it matches the message by thread against durable data.shared watch state seeded by TWO producers — outbound-follow-up-pressure-producer (status followup_due, watched_contact = the primary recipient) and send-support-reply-from-mail (status watching_customer_response, watched_contact = the customer). It confirms the reply's sender is that watched contact — recovering the contact from the linked source mail (via the stored record_id) when a producer denormalized no address, and failing closed (skipping) when it cannot establish the counterparty — then classifies the reply, advances the shared state to responded_closed or response_needs_owner, and links the reply mail to the watched source mail. Those state transitions are what unified-work-queue and weekly-owner-review read to surface or retire the follow-up. It never sends mail or mutates an external system.

emailmailfollowupreply
by recued-core pinned v1

Reactive outbound mirror of outbound-follow-up-response-watcher. It fires on the same data.mail created stream but processes the OWNER's outbound sends rather than inbound replies: when the owner sends on a thread already tracked in data.shared watch state, it confirms the sender is the owner (derived from the linked source mail's From via the stored record_id) and refreshes the row to watching_customer_response with a fresh last_outbound_at and sent_message_id, moving the ball back to the contact. Refresh-only: it never creates rows (the pressure producer and the send recipes own creation) and never reopens responded_closed threads, and it fails closed (skips) when it cannot confirm the owner or find a matching row. This captures owner replies sent from a normal mail client, which the send recipes cannot record.

emailmailfollowupoutbound
by recued-core pinned v1

Neutral detection recipe for the outbound follow-up loop. It scans one response_needs_owner data.shared watch row, fetches the reply body, extracts possible conversion facets for meeting, task, insight note, commitment, and linked CRM deal next-step updates, writes compatible proposal rows for the matching owner-invoked action recipes, records a per-reply notification marker, and sends one notification that the reply has conversion options. It does not choose an action and never creates calendar events, tasks, notes, commitments, or CRM updates. User intent is expressed later by running one or more manual action recipes.

emailmailfollowupconversion
by recued-core pinned v1

Owner-invoked create half of the meeting-request conversion edge. It reads one awaiting_owner_approval proposal written by outbound-follow-up-meeting-request-calendar (optionally targeted by proposal_thread_key), creates the calendar event from the proposal's already-extracted schedule, links the event back to the reply and source mail, closes the follow-up loop on the source watch row, and marks the proposal scheduled. This recipe is manual-only on purpose: the calendar create (and, on some providers, the attendee invite) is an outward-facing action, and running it is the owner's explicit approval. It takes no calendar action when there is no pending proposal or the proposal lacks a concrete start and end time.

emailmailcalendarmeeting
by recued-core pinned v1

Owner-invoked create half of the task conversion edge. It reads one awaiting_owner_approval proposal written by outbound-follow-up-task-from-reply, optionally targeted by proposal_thread_key, creates a Recued task from the proposal, links the task back to the reply and source mail, closes the source follow-up watch row, and marks the proposal created. This recipe is manual-only on purpose: running it is the owner's approval to turn the proposed reply action into durable work.

emailmailtaskfollowup
by recued-core pinned v1

Owner-invoked create half of the customer-insight note conversion edge. It reads one awaiting_owner_approval proposal written by outbound-follow-up-insight-note-from-reply, optionally targeted by proposal_thread_key, creates a Recued note from the proposal, links the note back to the reply and source mail, and records the note id on the source follow-up watch row WITHOUT closing the loop — an insight note is complementary memory capture, so the thread stays open (its status is preserved) for the actual task/meeting/reply. It marks the proposal created so it is not re-proposed. This recipe is manual-only on purpose: running it is the owner's approval to turn the proposed customer signal into durable relationship memory.

emailmailnotecustomer-insight
by recued-core pinned v1

Owner-invoked create half of the commitment conversion edge. It reads one awaiting_owner_approval proposal written by outbound-follow-up-commitment-from-reply, optionally targeted by proposal_thread_key, creates a Recued commitment from the proposal, links the commitment back to the reply and source mail, and records the commitment id on the source follow-up watch row WITHOUT closing the loop. A commitment is complementary accountability capture, so the thread keeps its current status for the actual task/meeting/reply. It marks the proposal created so it is not re-proposed. This recipe is manual-only on purpose: running it is the owner's approval to turn the proposed promise into durable work.

emailmailcommitmentfollowup
by recued-core pinned v1

Housekeeping GC for the outbound follow-up loop. data.shared writes do not honor ttl (the durable store rejects it), so the per-thread conversion proposals written by the calendar/task/insight-note/commitment/CRM deal update detectors would otherwise persist forever after they are approved. This daily auto_run lists the outbound-follow-up namespace and deletes only proposal rows in a terminal status (scheduled / task_created / note_created / commitment_created / crm_deal_updated). It is safe because re-proposal is already blocked by the conversion id recorded on the source watch row for one-shot conversions (calendar_source_id / task_id / insight_note_id / commitment_id), while CRM deal-update duplicates for the same reply are blocked by the per-reply notification marker plus pending proposal rows. It never touches the watch rows themselves (they stay for re-open on a later reply), and it leaves awaiting_owner_approval proposals alone (they carry no timestamp, so a stale-unactioned proposal cannot be aged out here — record a created_at on proposals if that is wanted later).
