Completes the Windows-gating coverage for the built-in skills/ tree. Every
bundled SKILL.md now carries an explicit platforms: declaration so the
loader (agent.skill_utils.skill_matches_platform) can skip-load skills
that don't fit the current OS.

5 skills gated from Windows (platforms: [linux, macos]):
mlops/inference/vllm (serving-llms-vllm)
vLLM is officially Linux-only; Windows requires WSL.
mlops/training/axolotl
Axolotl's flash-attn + deepspeed + bitsandbytes stack is Linux-first.
mlops/training/unsloth
Requires Triton + xformers + flash-attn — Linux only in practice.
mlops/models/audiocraft (audiocraft-audio-generation)
torchaudio ffmpeg backend + encodec dependencies are Linux-first.
mlops/inference/obliteratus
Research abliteration workflow; relies on Linux-focused pytorch
kernels and MLX — no first-class Windows path.
Same strict-over-lenient policy as the optional-skills sweep: when the
underlying tool's Windows support is rough, missing, or WSL-only, gate the
skill. Easier to un-gate after verified Windows support lands than to leak
partial support that manifests as mid-task failures.
Combined with prior commits in this branch, every bundled SKILL.md
(skills/ + optional-skills/) now has a platforms: declaration.

# Himalaya Email CLI
|
|
|
|
Himalaya is a CLI email client that lets you manage emails from the terminal using IMAP, SMTP, Notmuch, or Sendmail backends.
|
|
|
|
## References
|
|
|
|
- `references/configuration.md` (config file setup + IMAP/SMTP authentication)
|
|
- `references/message-composition.md` (MML syntax for composing emails)
|
|
|
|
## Prerequisites
|
|
|
|
1. Himalaya CLI installed (`himalaya --version` to verify)
|
|
2. A configuration file at `~/.config/himalaya/config.toml`
|
|
3. IMAP/SMTP credentials configured (password stored securely)
|
|
|
|
### Installation
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Pre-built binary (Linux/macOS — recommended)
|
|
curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pimalaya/himalaya/master/install.sh | PREFIX=~/.local sh
|
|
|
|
# macOS via Homebrew
|
|
brew install himalaya
|
|
|
|
# Or via cargo (any platform with Rust)
|
|
cargo install himalaya --locked
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Configuration Setup
|
|
|
|
Run the interactive wizard to set up an account:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya account configure
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or create `~/.config/himalaya/config.toml` manually:
|
|
|
|
```toml
|
|
[accounts.personal]
|
|
email = "you@example.com"
|
|
display-name = "Your Name"
|
|
default = true
|
|
|
|
backend.type = "imap"
|
|
backend.host = "imap.example.com"
|
|
backend.port = 993
|
|
backend.encryption.type = "tls"
|
|
backend.login = "you@example.com"
|
|
backend.auth.type = "password"
|
|
backend.auth.cmd = "pass show email/imap" # or use keyring
|
|
|
|
message.send.backend.type = "smtp"
|
|
message.send.backend.host = "smtp.example.com"
|
|
message.send.backend.port = 587
|
|
message.send.backend.encryption.type = "start-tls"
|
|
message.send.backend.login = "you@example.com"
|
|
message.send.backend.auth.type = "password"
|
|
message.send.backend.auth.cmd = "pass show email/smtp"
|
|
|
|
# Folder aliases (himalaya v1.2.0+ syntax). Required whenever the
|
|
# server's folder names don't match himalaya's canonical names
|
|
# (inbox/sent/drafts/trash). Gmail is the common case — see
|
|
# `references/configuration.md` for the `[Gmail]/Sent Mail` mapping.
|
|
folder.aliases.inbox = "INBOX"
|
|
folder.aliases.sent = "Sent"
|
|
folder.aliases.drafts = "Drafts"
|
|
folder.aliases.trash = "Trash"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
> **Heads up on the alias syntax.** Pre-v1.2.0 docs used a
|
|
> `[accounts.NAME.folder.alias]` sub-section (singular `alias`).
|
|
> v1.2.0 silently ignores that form — TOML parses fine, but the
|
|
> alias resolver never reads it, so every lookup falls through to
|
|
> the canonical name. On Gmail this means save-to-Sent fails *after*
|
|
> SMTP delivery succeeds, and `himalaya message send` exits non-zero.
|
|
> Any caller (agent, script, user) that retries on that exit code
|
|
> will re-run the entire send — including SMTP — producing duplicate
|
|
> emails to recipients. Always use `folder.aliases.X` (plural, dotted
|
|
> keys, directly under `[accounts.NAME]`).
|
|
|
|
## Hermes Integration Notes
|
|
|
|
- **Reading, listing, searching, moving, deleting** all work directly through the terminal tool
|
|
- **Composing/replying/forwarding** — piped input (`cat << EOF | himalaya template send`) is recommended for reliability. Interactive `$EDITOR` mode works with `pty=true` + background + process tool, but requires knowing the editor and its commands
|
|
- Use `--output json` for structured output that's easier to parse programmatically
|
|
- The `himalaya account configure` wizard requires interactive input — use PTY mode: `terminal(command="himalaya account configure", pty=true)`
|
|
|
|
## Common Operations
|
|
|
|
### List Folders
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya folder list
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### List Emails
|
|
|
|
List emails in INBOX (default):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya envelope list
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
List emails in a specific folder:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya envelope list --folder "Sent"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
List with pagination:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya envelope list --page 1 --page-size 20
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Search Emails
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya envelope list from john@example.com subject meeting
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Read an Email
|
|
|
|
Read email by ID (shows plain text):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya message read 42
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Export raw MIME:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya message export 42 --full
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Reply to an Email
|
|
|
|
To reply non-interactively from Hermes, read the original message, compose a reply, and pipe it:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Get the reply template, edit it, and send
|
|
himalaya template reply 42 | sed 's/^$/\nYour reply text here\n/' | himalaya template send
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or build the reply manually:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cat << 'EOF' | himalaya template send
|
|
From: you@example.com
|
|
To: sender@example.com
|
|
Subject: Re: Original Subject
|
|
In-Reply-To: <original-message-id>
|
|
|
|
Your reply here.
|
|
EOF
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Reply-all (interactive — needs $EDITOR, use template approach above instead):
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya message reply 42 --all
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Forward an Email
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Get forward template and pipe with modifications
|
|
himalaya template forward 42 | sed 's/^To:.*/To: newrecipient@example.com/' | himalaya template send
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Write a New Email
|
|
|
|
**Non-interactive (use this from Hermes)** — pipe the message via stdin:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cat << 'EOF' | himalaya template send
|
|
From: you@example.com
|
|
To: recipient@example.com
|
|
Subject: Test Message
|
|
|
|
Hello from Himalaya!
|
|
EOF
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Or with headers flag:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya message write -H "To:recipient@example.com" -H "Subject:Test" "Message body here"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note: `himalaya message write` without piped input opens `$EDITOR`. This works with `pty=true` + background mode, but piping is simpler and more reliable.
|
|
|
|
### Move/Copy Emails
|
|
|
|
Move to folder:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya message move 42 "Archive"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Copy to folder:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya message copy 42 "Important"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Delete an Email
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya message delete 42
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Manage Flags
|
|
|
|
Add flag:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya flag add 42 --flag seen
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Remove flag:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya flag remove 42 --flag seen
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Multiple Accounts
|
|
|
|
List accounts:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya account list
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Use a specific account:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya --account work envelope list
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Attachments
|
|
|
|
Save attachments from a message:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya attachment download 42
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Save to specific directory:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya attachment download 42 --dir ~/Downloads
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Output Formats
|
|
|
|
Most commands support `--output` for structured output:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
himalaya envelope list --output json
|
|
himalaya envelope list --output plain
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Debugging
|
|
|
|
Enable debug logging:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
RUST_LOG=debug himalaya envelope list
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Full trace with backtrace:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
RUST_LOG=trace RUST_BACKTRACE=1 himalaya envelope list
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Tips
|
|
|
|
- Use `himalaya --help` or `himalaya <command> --help` for detailed usage.
|
|
- Message IDs are relative to the current folder; re-list after folder changes.
|
|
- For composing rich emails with attachments, use MML syntax (see `references/message-composition.md`).
|
|
- Store passwords securely using `pass`, system keyring, or a command that outputs the password.
