Feedback that arrives
while the work is fresh.
Students submit work and wait two weeks for a graded paper they barely remember writing. A Loomal agent reads each submission, drafts personalized feedback, and sends it from the instructor's identity within hours — turning grading into a real conversation about the work.
API Primitives used
mail_list_messagesRead the submission
Agent watches the assignments inbox for submitted work and parses out the student, assignment, and content.
mail_sendSend personalized feedback
Feedback goes from the instructor's agent identity, threaded against the original submission, with rubric scoring.
mail_replyHandle revision questions
Students reply with questions or revised work; agent reads and responds in-thread.
Grading lag breaks learning.
By the time a student gets graded feedback, they've moved on to the next assignment and forgotten the first. The feedback that should drive learning becomes a number in a gradebook nobody acts on. Instructors know it; they also know they can't grade 60 papers in a day.
An agent can. With access to the assignment inbox and a model that reads carefully, feedback can be sent within hours of submission — while the work is still fresh in the student's mind.

Why grading feedback needs an agent identity.
Feedback works when it's specific, fast, and personal. Humans deliver one of those at a time. An agent can deliver all three at once — with full audit so students and parents know exactly what was said and when.
Loomal gives the instructor an identity that owns the submission inbox, the feedback delivery, and the audit trail. Students get faster feedback; instructors get back the hours they were spending on grading.
Student data scoped
Submissions and feedback live in the instructor's own inbox.
Per-submission audit
Every feedback message is logged with the instructor identity and timestamp.
Identity per course
Each course can run on its own agent identity for clean separation.
