# Gmail

Lightweight Gmail integration with standalone OAuth authentication. No MCP server required.

> **⚠️ Requires Google Workspace account.** Personal Gmail accounts are not supported.

## First-Time Setup

Authenticate with Google (opens browser):
```bash
python scripts/auth.py login
```

Check authentication status:
```bash
python scripts/auth.py status
```

Logout when needed:
```bash
python scripts/auth.py logout
```

## Commands

All operations via `scripts/gmail.py`. Auto-authenticates on first use if not logged in.

### Search Emails

```bash
# Search with Gmail query syntax
python scripts/gmail.py search "from:[email protected] is:unread"

# Search recent emails (no query returns all)
python scripts/gmail.py search --limit 20

# Filter by label
python scripts/gmail.py search --label INBOX --limit 10

# Include spam and trash
python scripts/gmail.py search "subject:important" --include-spam-trash
```

### Read Email Content

```bash
# Get full message content
python scripts/gmail.py get MESSAGE_ID

# Get just metadata (headers)
