gmail

A guide for searching, reading, and sending Gmail messages from the command line, using the gogcli tool. It also covers installing the tool and signing in with Google.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find emails, inspect messages, send mail, and choose the correct account when several Gmail accounts are connected.
Why use it?
It gives the agent a defined process for checking that the mail tool and account access are ready before handling messages.

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.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

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.

Security

Grade A, and why

gmail 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 yesterday.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 175 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Gmail — gogcli 기반 메일 검색/조회/발송

gogcli(gog) CLI를 사용하여 Gmail 메일을 검색, 조회, 발송한다.

디렉토리 구조

gmail/
├── SKILL.md
└── references/
    └── gog-gmail-commands.md   # 주요 명령어 레퍼런스

스크립트 없이 gog CLI를 직접 실행한다.

플로우

1. gogcli 설치 확인

which gog

명령이 실패하면 사용자에게 설치를 안내한다:

gogcli 설치 안내

brew install gogcli

설치 완료 후 다시 시도해주세요.

설치가 확인되면 다음 단계로 진행한다.

2. 인증 확인

gog auth list

계정이 없으면 OAuth 설정을 안내한다:

Gmail 인증 설정 가이드

  1. Google Cloud Console에서 프로젝트 생성
  2. Gmail API 활성화
  3. OAuth 동의 화면 설정 → 테스트 사용자 추가
  4. OAuth 클라이언트 생성 → "Desktop app" → JSON 다운로드
  5. 터미널에서 아래 명령 실행:
gog auth credentials ~/Downloads/client_secret_....json
gog auth add <[email protected]> --services gmail

브라우저가 열리면 Google 계정으로 로그인하여 권한을 허용해주세요.

인증이 확인되면 GOG_ACCOUNT 환경변수 또는 --account 플래그로 계정을 지정한다.

계정 선택 규칙
  • 등록된 계정이 1개뿐이면 해당 계정을 그대로 사용한다.
  • 등록된 계정이 여러 개인 경우:
    • 사용자가 계정을 명시했거나, 요청 맥락에서 어떤 계정을 써야 하는지 파악 가능하면 해당 계정을 사용한다.
    • 어떤 계정을 써야 할지 파악할 수 없으면 AskUserQuestion으로 사용자에게 어떤 계정을 사용할지 물어본다.

3. 요청 분류 및 실행

사용자 요청을 아래 중 하나로 분류하여 실행한다.

메일 검색
gog gmail search '<Gmail 검색 쿼리>' --max <N> --json

자주 쓰는 검색 쿼리:

  • 최근 N일: newer_than:7d
  • 안 읽은 메일: is:unread
  • 특정 발신자: from:[email protected]
  • 첨부파일 있는 메일: has:attachment
  • 복합 조건: from:[email protected] newer_than:3d is:unread
메시지 수준 검색 (본문 포함)
gog gmail messages search '<query>' --max <N> --include-body --json
스레드 조회
gog gmail thread get <threadId> --json
메시지 조회
gog gmail get <messageId> --json
메일 발송
gog gmail send --to <수신자> --subject "<제목>" --body "<본문>"

CC/BCC 추가:

gog gmail send --to <수신자> --cc <참조> --bcc <숨은참조> --subject "<제목>" --body "<본문>"

Files

What ships with it

1 file 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.

Changes

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.
