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 | $0.00000 | $0.01039 |
| Opus 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00519 |
| Sonnet 5 | $0.00000 | $0.00208 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00000 | $0.00104 |
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 9d 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
86% identical to himalaya — 36 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 — 213 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
Himalaya Email CLI
Himalaya is a CLI email client that lets you manage emails from the terminal using IMAP, SMTP, Notmuch, or Sendmail backends.
Use this only for explicit Himalaya or local IMAP/SMTP mailbox workflows. For Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 accounts, prefer the native managed-provider skills instead.
References
references/configuration.md(config file setup + IMAP/SMTP authentication)references/message-composition.md(MML syntax for composing emails)
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
What ships with it
4 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.

himalaya is a skill published in the GitHub repository Threat-Vector-Security/guardian-agent (13 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 1,039 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 86% identical to himalaya, differing in 36 lines, and is treated as a copy.
Other skills, from other repositories
intent-recognition
Classifies automation requests using two decisions: anchor (which primitive owns the top-level control flow — workflow-anchored, agent-anchored, needs-clarification, or out-of-scope) and embedsother (whether the other primitive appears embedded inside — an agent step inside a workflow, or a workflow invoked as an…
post-build-flow
Handles workflow verification and setup after build-workflow succeeds, or when the message contains workflow-verification-follow-up or workflow-setup-required. Load after direct builds, when verificationReadiness requires action, or on orchestrator verify/setup follow-up turns.
planned-task-runtime
Handles system follow-up turns: planned-task-follow-up (synthesize, replan, build-workflow, checkpoint), background-task-completed, running-tasks context, and create-tasks silence rules. Load whenever any of these tags appear or after calling create-tasks.
config-evals
Builds and maintains configuration-based evaluations on a workflow with the eval-config tool. Use when the user asks to set up, add, view, change, or remove an evaluation, score, grade, or judge a workflow's output, or measure answer quality against a test dataset. This is the only eval form Instance AI handles — it…
one-off-operations
Handles one-off operations: the request is a concrete effect that happens once — export or copy data somewhere, a migration, a backfill, a cleanup — with no trigger, schedule, or reuse intent. The workflow is the vehicle, not the deliverable. Users rarely say "one-off"; infer it from the task's shape. Load before…
debugging-executions
Debug failed or wrong-output workflow executions using executions tools. Load when the user reports execution failures, unexpected node output, empty parameter values after a successful run, or a node showing a red or failed expression error.
