+# AI-Generated Rules User Stories & Acceptance Criteria
+
+## User Stories
+
+### Primary User Stories
+
+#### 1. AI Rule Generation
+**As a** user creating a new folder  
+**I want** to generate email organization rules using AI  
+**So that** I don't have to manually create rules from scratch
+
+**Acceptance Criteria:**
+- [ ] AI generation button appears in folder creation modal
+- [ ] Clicking button generates a relevant rule based on folder name and type
+- [ ] Generated rule appears in the rule text area
+- [ ] Rule quality score is displayed (0-100%)
+- [ ] User can accept, modify, or regenerate the rule
+
+#### 2. Multiple Rule Options
+**As a** user  
+**I want** to see multiple AI-generated rule options  
+**So that** I can choose the best rule for my needs
+
+**Acceptance Criteria:**
+- [ ] "Multiple Options" button generates 5 different rule suggestions
+- [ ] Rules are displayed in a selectable grid layout
+- [ ] Each rule shows quality score and key criteria
+- [ ] User can select one rule to use
+- [ ] Selected rule populates the rule text area
+
+#### 3. Rule Quality Assessment
+**As a** user  
+**I want** to know the quality of AI-generated rules  
+**So that** I can make informed decisions about which rules to use
+
+**Acceptance Criteria:**
+- [ ] Each generated rule has a quality score (0-100%)
+- [ ] Quality scores are color-coded (red/yellow/green)
+- [ ] Quality feedback explains why a rule scored high or low
+- [ ] Quality assessment considers specificity, action-orientation, and relevance
+
+#### 4. Error Handling & Fallbacks
+**As a** user  
+**I want** clear error messages and fallback options when AI generation fails  
+**So that** I can still create folders even when AI service is unavailable
+
+**Acceptance Criteria:**
+- [ ] Network errors show clear, user-friendly messages
+- [ ] Authentication errors provide specific guidance
+- [ ] Service errors offer retry options
+- [ ] Manual rule entry is always available as fallback
+- [ ] Default rule templates are suggested based on folder name
+
+#### 5. Rule Customization
+**As a** user  
+**I want** to easily customize AI-generated rules  
+**So that** I can fine-tune rules to match my specific needs
+
+**Acceptance Criteria:**
+- [ ] Generated rules can be edited directly in the text area
+- [ ] Rule validation works on customized rules
+- [ ] Users can regenerate rules while keeping the same context
+- [ ] Edit history is maintained for rule modifications
+
+### Secondary User Stories
+
+#### 8. Accessibility
+**As a** user with disabilities
