Urgency Escalator — rewire this alert

Sieve read the raw airline notification, cross-referenced your calendar, your booked connection, and live gate data, then rewrote it into a single decision. Nothing was sent or booked on your behalf — this is the rewired alert before you act.
ESCALATED

Alert: Flight UA2419 delayed

Time-critical · United app · Rewired by Travel-context v2.1
What this actually means for you
Your 16:05 flight is delayed 45 minutes. You land at 18:20. Your connection to LAX departs 18:35 from a different terminal. After the delay you arrive at the gate ~15 minutes too late to board.

Today's surfaceEscalator › Why this surfaced

Why Sieve surfaced this now

A filter only earns trust if you can see why it let something through — or held it back. Here is the exact context behind this decision.

What context Sieve used

Read your calendar, your current mode (Deep Work), location (in transit), and the alert's own metadata. Calendar synced 2 minutes ago. Confidence on context freshness: High · no stale-data warning ●

Why this one crossed your threshold

The alert is time-critical and changes a plan already on your calendar. Escalation rule: Affects a booked event within 6 hours AND is irreversible if ignored. Threshold crossed at 16:18 — even Deep Work mode lets this class through.

What Sieve held back instead

41 promotional pings, 9 social interactions, and 4 delivery updates from the same window were batched into your evening digest, not surfaced. None met the bar for your current mode. Review them any time →

Where Sieve is less sure

The rewrite assumes the LAX connection is the one you care about — you have a second itinerary on file. 22% chance the relevant leg is the later one. Recommend a glance before auto-booking · Confidence: Medium ◐

🎧

Deep Work

Highest bar — almost nothing gets through

Best when: you need uninterrupted focus and can review the rest later.

Breaks through: account security, time-critical travel, bursts from your 5 closest contacts. Everything else is intercepted and batched.

Lets through: 2 classes · Holds ~96% · Digest: end of block
🍽

Family Dinner

Protect the table — people first, machines later

Best when: you're present with people and only want true emergencies.

Breaks through: security alerts and your inner circle. Work, promos, and social are fully held. One digest lands after dinner.

Lets through: 1 class · Holds ~98% · Digest: 21:00

Casual Browsing

Lower bar — keep me loosely in the loop

Best when: you're relaxed and don't mind being pinged for the interesting stuff.

Breaks through: anything Sieve scores as personally relevant — messages, meaningful social, deliveries arriving now. Pure promos still get batched.
