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

himalaya scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 8d 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.

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

# 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:

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"

Gauss 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)

What ships with it

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.
