porteden email

Use porteden email (alias: porteden mail) for email management across multiple accounts. Use -jc flags for AI-optimized output. If porteden is not installed: brew install porteden/tap/porteden (or go install github.com/porteden/cli/cmd/porteden@latest). Setup (once) Browser login (recommended): porteden auth login — opens browser, credentials stored in system keyring Direct token: porteden auth login --token <key> — stored in system keyring Verify: porteden auth status If PE_API_KEY is set in the environment, the CLI uses it automatically (no login needed). Common commands List emails (or --today, --yesterday, --week, --days N): porteden email messages -jc Filter emails: porteden email messages --from sender@example.com -jc (also: --to, --subject, --label, --unread, --has-attachment) Search emails: porteden email messages -q "keyword" --today -jc Custom date range: porteden email messages --after 2026-02-01 --before 2026-02-07 -jc All emails (auto-pagination): porteden email messages --week --all -jc Get single email: porteden email message <emailId> -jc Get thread: porteden email thread <threadId> -jc Send email: porteden email send --to user@example.com --subject "Hi" --body "Hello" (also: --cc, --bcc, --body-file, --body-type text, --importance high) Send with named recipient: porteden email send --to "John Doe <john@example.com>" --subject "Hi" --body "Hello" Reply: porteden email reply <emailId> --body "Thanks" (add --reply-all for reply all) Forward: porteden email forward <emailId> --to colleague@example.com (optional --body "FYI", --cc) Modify email: porteden email modify <emailId> --mark-read (also: --mark-unread, --add-labels IMPORTANT, --remove-labels INBOX) Delete email: porteden email delete <emailId> Notes Credentials persist in the system keyring after login. No repeated auth needed. Set PE_PROFILE=work to avoid repeating --profile. -jc is shorthand for --json --compact: strips attachment details, truncates body previews, limits labels, reduces tokens. Use --all to auto-fetch all pages; check hasMore and nextPageToken in JSON output. Email IDs are provider-prefixed (e.g., google:abc123, m365:xyz789). Pass them as-is. --include-body on messages fetches full body (default: preview only). Single message includes body by default. --body and --body-file are mutually exclusive. Use --body-type text for plain text (default: html). Confirm before sending, replying, forwarding, or deleting emails. Environment variables: PE_API_KEY, PE_PROFILE, PE_TIMEZONE, PE_FORMAT, PE_COLOR, PE_VERBOSE.
