Agent Email CLI
Overview
Use this skill to operate the agent-email command safely and predictably for agent workflows that need inbox access.
Prefer JSON-native command output and return key fields (email, messageId, subject, createdAt, from.address) in your summaries.
Workflow
- Verify CLI availability.
command -v agent-email
agent-email --help
If missing, install:
npm install -g @zaddy6/agentemail
# or
bun install -g @zaddy6/agentemail
- Create a mailbox account.
agent-email create
Record these fields from JSON output:
data.emaildata.accountIddata.activeEmail
Do not record, repeat, or print secret values such as mailbox passwords or tokens.
- Read latest messages.
agent-email read <email|default>
For inbox waiting/polling:
agent-email read <email|default> --wait 30 --interval 2
For full message payloads:
agent-email read <email|default> --full
- Retrieve one message in detail.
agent-email show <email|default> <messageId>
Use show when you need body/source details for verification links, codes, or full content extraction.
- Manage mailbox profiles.
agent-email accounts list
agent-email use <email|default>
agent-email accounts remove <email>
Avoid commands that require entering secrets on the command line in agent logs.
- Delete processed/irrelevant message when requested.
agent-email delete <email|default> <messageId>
Operational Guidance
- Keep command output machine-readable; avoid forcing human output unless requested.
- Prefer
defaultalias when user does not specify an email. - Never echo, store, or summarize secret values (
password,token) from command output. - If command fails, surface the JSON error
codeandhintfields directly. - For auth failures (
AUTH_REQUIRED/401), rerun command once and request user intervention if credentials must be re-established. - For rate limits (
RATE_LIMITED/429), retry after short delay.
Troubleshooting
command not found: ensure~/.bun/binor npm global bin path is onPATH.NO_ACTIVE_ACCOUNT: runagent-email createoragent-email use <email>.ACCOUNT_NOT_FOUND: runagent-email accounts listand pick a valid address.EOTPduring npm publish: use npm trusted publishing for CI or publish locally with OTP.
