Echoing the points made across this thread regarding the need for ecosystem parity with Big Tech without compromising Proton’s core values.
Proton’s zero-access encryption and user-owned keys are the entire reason we trust this platform. Integration between Lumo and Proton Mail, Calendar, or Drive must keep zero-knowledge security non-negotiable.
The core bottleneck for Mail integration right now is that client side encrypted data cannot be indexed or manipulated server-side by an AI assistant without compromising zero-access principles. To solve this securely, Proton could implement Scoped Decryption Tokens:
Time-Limited Session Grants: Users generate a cryptographically bound, temporary session token (valid for 1h, 12h, or 24h) via their client side keys.
Granular Scope Isolation: Decryption authority is restricted strictly by scope targeting specific labels, folders (Inbox only), or date ranges, leaving the rest of the mailbox entirely inaccessible.
Ephemerality & Revocation: Lumo performs the designated triage (generating classification rules, sorting threads, proposing Sieve filters, or extracting calendar dates) entirely in transient, zero-persistence memory. Once the task finishes or the TTL expires, the token invalidates automatically, or it can be revoked instantly from the user dashboard.
Non-encrypted competitors provide convenience at the cost of total surveillance. Providing a mathematically bounded, opt-in mechanism like scoped decryption tokens would give Lumo the deep workflow integration we need while preserving Proton's privacy standard.
