himalaya
Himalaya CLI for IMAP/SMTP mail: list, read, search, compose, reply, forward, copy, move, delete.
npx skills add Health-Yang/MineEcho --skill himalaya --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Himalaya Use `himalaya` for IMAP/SMTP email from shell. ## References - `references/configuration.md`: account config, auth, backend setup. - `references/message-composition.md`: MML compose syntax. ## Setup ```bash himalaya --version himalaya account configure ``` Config path: `~/.config/himalaya/config.toml`. Prefer password managers/keyrings for credentials; do not paste secrets into chat/logs. ## Read/search ```bash himalaya folder list himalaya envelope list himalaya message read <id> himalaya envelope list from alice@example.com subject invoice ``` ## Write ```bash himalaya message write himalaya template write himalaya template send < /tmp/message.txt himalaya message reply <id> himalaya message forward <id> ``` Use MML for attachments and rich messages; read `references/message-composition.md` first. ## Organize ```bash himalaya message copy <id> <folder> himalaya message move <id> <folder> himalaya message delete <id> himalaya flag add <id> --flag seen himalaya flag remove <id> --flag seen ``` ## Safety - Confirm before sending, deleting, or moving many messages. - Use `--account` when multiple accounts exist. - Quote exact message IDs in summaries.

What does the himalaya skill do?
Himalaya CLI for IMAP/SMTP mail: list, read, search, compose, reply, forward, copy, move, delete.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add Health-Yang/MineEcho --skill himalaya --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From Health-Yang/MineEcho, a repository with 248 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
