# Himalaya Email CLI Use Himalaya for host-side IMAP and SMTP email workflows when a terminal-native client is the right tool. ## Default Workflow 1. Verify the CLI: ```bash himalaya --version ``` 2. If it is missing, tell the user to run: ```bash hybridclaw skill install himalaya brew ``` 3. Verify accounts: ```bash himalaya account list ``` 4. If no account exists, run: ```bash himalaya account configure ``` 5. If multiple accounts exist, use `--account <name>` explicitly. ## Common Operations List folders: ```bash himalaya folder list ``` List message envelopes: ```bash himalaya envelope list --output json ``` Read a message: ```bash himalaya message read 42 ``` Reply: ```bash himalaya message reply 42 ``` Write and send from a template: ```bash cat <<'EOF' | himalaya template send From: you@example.com To: recipient@example.com Subject: Follow-up Draft body here. EOF ``` Download attachments: ```bash himalaya attachment download 42 --dir /tmp/himalaya-attachments ``` ## Rules - Draft first, send second. Show the planned email body before sending. - Confirm before send, delete, move, or forward operations. - Prefer `--output json` when you need machine-readable search or list results. - If the user only wants a summary of already ingested email threads, prefer `channel-catchup`. - Keep account selection explicit when there is any ambiguity.
