A terminal-based email client for managing mail through services that use IMAP and SMTP, the standard protocols for receiving and sending email. It supports listing, reading, writing, replying, forwarding, searching, and organizing messages.

Managing one or more email accounts, finding messages, composing and sending mail, and organizing an inbox from the terminal.

It lets you handle email from the command line instead of switching to a graphical mail app. This can help when working on a remote machine or when email is part of a terminal-based workflow.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00055	$0.01138
Opus 5	$0.00028	$0.00569
Sonnet 5	$0.00011	$0.00228
Haiku 4.5	$0.00006	$0.00114

Security

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 10d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

91% identical to himalaya — 29 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.

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.
