Ravi Email — Send

Compose new emails, reply to existing ones, or forward them from your Ravi email address.

Writing quality matters. Before drafting email content, see the ravi-email-writing skill for subject lines, HTML formatting, tone, and anti-spam best practices.

Resolving Recipients by Name

If you have the recipient's name but not their email address (e.g. "email Alice"), use ravi-contacts first:

# Search contacts by name
ravi contacts search "Alice"
# → Returns matches with email, phone, display_name
# If one match → use the email from the result
# If multiple matches → confirm with the user which Alice they mean
# If no matches → ask the user for the email address directly

Compose a new email

ravi email compose --to "recipient@example.com" --subject "Subject" --body "<p>HTML content</p>"

Arguments:

• --to (required): Recipient email address
• --subject (required): Email subject line
• --body (required): Email body (HTML supported — use tags like <p>, <h2>, <ul> for formatting)

Example with HTML formatting:

ravi email compose \
  --to "user@example.com" \
  --subject "Monthly Report" \
  --body "<h2>Monthly Report</h2><p>Key findings:</p><ul><li>Revenue up 15%</li><li>Churn down 3%</li></ul>"

Reply to an email

# Reply to sender only
ravi email reply <message_id> --body "<p>Reply content</p>"

# Reply to all recipients (reply-all)
ravi email reply-all <message_id> --body "<p>Reply content</p>"

Forward an email

ravi email forward <message_id> --to "recipient@example.com" --body "<p>FYI — see below.</p>"

Arguments:

• --to (required): Recipient email address
• --body (required): Email body (HTML supported)

Rate Limits

Email sending is rate-limited per user account:

• 60 emails/hour and 500 emails/day

On hitting a rate limit, you'll get a 429 response with a retry_after_seconds value. Wait that many seconds before retrying.

Best practices for agents:

• Avoid tight loops of email sends — batch work where possible
• On 429: parse retry_after_seconds from the response body, wait, then retry
• For bulk operations, add a 1-2 second delay between sends

Important Notes

• HTML email bodies — the --body argument accepts HTML. Use tags for formatting: <p>, <h2>, <ul>, <a href="...">. No <html> or <body> wrapper needed. See ravi-email-writing for templates and anti-spam rules.
• Subject for replies/forwards — reply and forward commands auto-derive the subject from the original message (prepending Re: or Fwd:). No need to pass --subject.
