Gmail Commander Setup

Complete setup wizard for Gmail CLI access, Telegram bot, and launchd services.

Self-Evolving Skill: This skill improves through use. If instructions are wrong, parameters drifted, or a workaround was needed — fix this file immediately, don't defer. Only update for real, reproducible issues.

Prerequisites Check

# Check required tools
command -v op && echo "OK 1Password CLI" || echo "MISSING: brew install 1password-cli"
command -v mise && echo "OK mise" || echo "MISSING: curl https://mise.run | sh"
command -v bun && echo "OK bun" || echo "MISSING: curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash"
command -v ffmpeg && echo "OK ffmpeg" || echo "OPTIONAL: brew install ffmpeg (for voice digest)"

Phase 1: Gmail OAuth Setup

Step 1: Check if already configured

echo "GMAIL_OP_UUID: ${GMAIL_OP_UUID:-NOT_SET}"

If already set, use AskUserQuestion to ask if user wants to reconfigure.

Step 2: Discover 1Password items

op item list --vault Employee --format json | jq -r '.[] | select(.title | test("gmail|oauth"; "i")) | "\(.id)\t\(.title)"'

Step 3: Present options

Use AskUserQuestion with discovered items or guide new credential creation.

Step 4: Configure .mise.local.toml

# Add to .mise.local.toml in project directory
cat >> .mise.local.toml << 'EOF'
[env]
GMAIL_OP_UUID = "<selected-uuid>"
EOF

Step 5: Build Gmail CLI

cd "$HOME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/cc-skills/plugins/gmail-commander/scripts/gmail-cli" && bun install && bun run build

Step 6: Test Gmail access

"$HOME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/cc-skills/plugins/gmail-commander/scripts/gmail-cli/gmail" list -n 1

Phase 2: Telegram Bot Setup

Step 1: Check Telegram config

echo "TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN: ${TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN:+SET}"
echo "TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID: ${TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID:-NOT_SET}"

If NOT_SET, guide user through BotFather setup:

1. Message @BotFather on Telegram
2. Send /newbot and follow prompts
3. Copy the token
4. Get chat ID: message the bot, then check https://api.telegram.org/bot<TOKEN>/getUpdates

Step 2: Add to .mise.local.toml

# Append bot config
cat >> .mise.local.toml << 'EOF'
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN = "<bot-token>"
TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID = "<chat-id>"
EOF

Phase 3: launchd Service Installation

Step 1: Create launcher scripts

mkdir -p ~/own/amonic/bin ~/own/amonic/logs

# Bot launcher
cat > ~/own/amonic/bin/gmail-commander-bot << 'SCRIPT'
#!/bin/bash
set -euo pipefail
eval "$("$HOME/.local/bin/mise" activate bash)"
cd "$HOME/own/amonic"
exec bun run "$HOME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/cc-skills/plugins/gmail-commander/scripts/bot.ts"
SCRIPT
chmod +x ~/own/amonic/bin/gmail-commander-bot

# Digest launcher
cat > ~/own/amonic/bin/gmail-commander-digest << 'SCRIPT'
#!/bin/bash
set -euo pipefail
eval "$("$HOME/.local/bin/mise" activate bash)"
cd "$HOME/own/amonic"
exec bun run "$HOME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/cc-skills/plugins/gmail-commander/scripts/digest.ts"
SCRIPT
chmod +x ~/own/amonic/bin/gmail-commander-digest

Step 2: Install launchd plists

Use AskUserQuestion to confirm before installing launchd services.

# Copy plist templates (from bot-process-control SKILL.md) to LaunchAgents
# launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.terryli.gmail-commander-bot.plist
# launchctl load ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.terryli.gmail-commander-digest.plist

Phase 4: Verification

# Run health check
echo "=== Gmail CLI ==="
"$HOME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/cc-skills/plugins/gmail-commander/scripts/gmail-cli/gmail" list -n 1 2>&1 | head -5

echo ""
echo "=== Bot Process ==="
pgrep -fl gmail-commander || echo "Not running"

echo ""
echo "=== launchd ==="
launchctl list | grep gmail-commander || echo "Not registered"

Success Criteria

1. echo $GMAIL_OP_UUID shows a UUID
2. Gmail CLI returns email data
3. echo $TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN is set
4. Bot responds to /help in Telegram
5. launchd jobs are loaded (optional)

Post-Execution Reflection

After this skill completes, reflect before closing the task:

0. Locate yourself. — Find this SKILL.md's canonical path (Glob for this skill's name) before editing. All corrections target THIS file and its sibling references/ — never other documentation.
1. What failed? — Fix the instruction that caused it. If it could recur, add it as an anti-pattern.
2. What worked better than expected? — Promote it to recommended practice. Document why.
3. What drifted? — Any script, reference, or external dependency that no longer matches reality gets fixed now.
4. Log it. — Every change gets an evolution-log entry with trigger, fix, and evidence.

Do NOT defer. The next invocation inherits whatever you leave behind.
