Bitterbot is a local-first personal AI agent that runs on a user’s devices, keeps persistent memories, performs tasks, and can exchange reusable skills with other agents. It is intended for people who want a personal assistant that remains available across conversations and activities. The catalogue entries provide instructions and agents for working with Bitterbot.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00055 | $0.01174 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00028 | $0.00587 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00011 | $0.00235 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00006 | $0.00117 |
Grade A, and why
himalaya scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 11d ago.
A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.
Nothing flagged
None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.
This is a copy
92% identical to himalaya — 17 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 258 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Prerequisites
- Himalaya CLI installed (
himalaya --versionto verify) - A configuration file at
~/.config/himalaya/config.toml - IMAP/SMTP credentials configured (password stored securely)
Configuration Setup
Run the interactive wizard to set up an account:
himalaya account configure
Or create ~/.config/himalaya/config.toml manually:
[accounts.personal]
email = "[email protected]"
display-name = "Your Name"
default = true
backend.type = "imap"
backend.host = "imap.example.com"
backend.port = 993
backend.encryption.type = "tls"
backend.login = "[email protected]"
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 = "[email protected]"
message.send.backend.auth.type = "password"
message.send.backend.auth.cmd = "pass show email/smtp"
Common Operations
List Folders
himalaya folder list
List Emails
List emails in INBOX (default):
himalaya envelope list
List emails in a specific folder:
himalaya envelope list --folder "Sent"
List with pagination:
himalaya envelope list --page 1 --page-size 20
Search Emails
himalaya envelope list from [email protected] subject meeting
Read an Email
Read email by ID (shows plain text):
himalaya message read 42
Export raw MIME:
himalaya message export 42 --full
Reply to an Email
Interactive reply (opens $EDITOR):
himalaya message reply 42
What ships with it
2 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
What this file has done since we first saw it
Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
