Gmail Recent Digest

Requirements

Python 3 must be available in the container environment (
```
python
```
command).
IMAP credentials must be supplied via one of the following methods (env vars take precedence):

Option A — Environment variables (recommended)

Variable	Description	Default
`IMAP_HOST`	IMAP server hostname	`imap.gmail.com`
`IMAP_PORT`	IMAP server port	`993`
`IMAP_USERNAME`	IMAP login username	(required)
`IMAP_PASSWORD`	IMAP login password / app-password	(required)
`IMAP_MAX_BODY_CHARS`	Max body characters per email	`2000`

Option B — Config file

Set

EMAIL_CONFIG_PATH

to point to a JSON file, or place the file at

~/.config/gmail-summarize/config.json

. The file must contain only the fields below (no other sensitive data should be stored in this file):

{
  "email": {
    "imapHost": "imap.gmail.com",
    "imapPort": 993,
    "imapUsername": "your@gmail.com",
    "imapPassword": "your-app-password",
    "maxBodyChars": 2000
  }
}

Security notes

Preferred: supply credentials via environment variables (
```
IMAP_HOST
```
,
```
IMAP_PORT
```
,
```
IMAP_USERNAME
```
,
```
IMAP_PASSWORD
```
) so no file on disk is read at all.
When a config file is used, it should contain only the
```
email
```
fields listed above. The script reads only those four fields and nothing else from the file.
The only external connection made is to the IMAP server declared in
```
IMAP_HOST
```
/
```
email.imapHost
```
. No other endpoints are contacted.
Credentials are used solely to authenticate the IMAP session and are not logged or stored elsewhere by this skill.

When to use

User asks "check my Gmail", "summarize my emails", "邮件摘要"
Cron trigger message contains "gmail_digest"

Workflow

Run the fetch script via exec tool:
```
python {workspace}/skills/gmail-summarize/scripts/fetch_unseen.py
```
(replace {workspace} with your actual workspace root)
Parse the JSON array. Each item has: sender, subject, date, body

For each email compose one line:

[date] sender | subject — one-sentence body summary

Send the full digest via MessageTool in this format:

📬 邮件摘要 (N封，覆盖 MM/DD–MM/DD)

• [日期] 发件人 | 主题 — 一句话摘要 • [日期] 发件人 | 主题 — 一句话摘要 ...
If result is empty, send: 📭 近两日暂无未读邮件

Output Rules

Send the digest message ONLY. Do NOT add any extra comments, greetings, explanations, or follow-up questions before or after the digest.
Do NOT say things like "主人，以下是您的邮件摘要" or "如需了解详情请告知" etc.
The digest message itself is the complete and final response.
The one-sentence body summary MUST be translated into Chinese. Sender names and subjects should keep their original text as-is.
