Email Channel Setup

2026-06-05 — OBSOLETE pointer. The Cloudflare-Worker-as-primary inbound model described here is no longer accurate. As of PR #1722 (commit d8333558), Specialist email goes through Gmail API polling + Domain-Wide-Delegation impersonation with a single Google service account. The CF Worker is retained only as a fallback during the 2-week soak period (#1441).

For current architecture, see:

• docs/features/channels.md §System 4 — Google Workspace + DWD
• /tmp/docs-audit-2026-06-06/GROUND-TRUTH.md (local audit notes)

For historical reference — the pre-#1722 CF-Worker setup steps are preserved at:

• docs/archive/ops/EMAIL-CHANNEL-SETUP-pre-1722.md

Do not follow the archived doc to bring up a new environment — it will produce a misconfigured channel.
