A likely result is not permission to close the loop.
What changed
Commitments now keep a stable account of the person responsible, the promised deliverable, the due point, the source and whether the loop remains open.
When a later Gmail or Outlook message appears to fulfil that promise, SAINT can connect the evidence to the original commitment and surface a possible completion for review. Relevant recent mail the person sent can also inform the next conversation, so SAINT does not ask them to repeat what they already told someone. This remains a small source-labelled excerpt, not the whole sent folder. Complete mail threads and approved replies are available when the work needs them, and a reply that needs an answer can remain open until the answer arrives.
Evidence is not authority
A matching email does not close the commitment. SAINT proposes the change, shows why it looks complete and waits for an explicit confirmation. Dismissing the suggestion leaves the original loop open.
That distinction protects the useful human meaning of done. A message saying work is ready, delayed or merely discussed should not silently rewrite a person's commitments.
The private-pilot boundary
This is available in the private pilot and still needs live reconciliation verification. It considers later inbound and sent Gmail or Outlook messages, requires the counterparty and deliverable to match, and rejects negated or uncertain completion language. Sending a reply or changing a Google or Outlook calendar event remains a proposed action until the person confirms it.
When the evidence is weak, the loop stays open. The purpose is not to automate judgement away; it is to bring the right commitment back at the moment a person can settle it.
