Communication Skills

CLI-JAW bundles six communication skills for messaging, email, and social media. These skills let you send Telegram messages, draft and polish emails, manage Gmail and Google Drive, read terminal-based email, send WhatsApp messages, and post to Twitter/X — all from natural language commands.

Skill Overview

telegram-send

Send messages, photos, documents, and stickers to Telegram chats directly from CLI-JAW. This skill wraps the telegram-send CLI and automatically handles chat ID resolution, file uploads, and Markdown formatting.

Capabilities

• Send text messages with Markdown or HTML formatting
• Send images, documents, audio, and video files
• Forward messages between chats
• Send to groups, channels, or individual contacts
• Silent (notification-disabled) sends

Configuration

Requires a Telegram Bot API token configured in the CLI-JAW environment:

# In ~/.cli-jaw/config.json or env
TELEGRAM_BOT_TOKEN=123456:ABC-DEF...
TELEGRAM_CHAT_ID=default_chat_id

Examples

# Simple text message
"텔레그램으로 '서버 배포 완료' 보내줘"

# Send a file
"이 스크린샷 텔레그램으로 보내줘"
→ Attaches the most recent screenshot file

# Send to a specific chat
"텔레그램 개발팀 채널에 '빌드 성공' 보내줘"

# Silent message
"텔레그램으로 조용히 보내줘 -- 알림 없이"

email-draft-polish

Draft new emails from scratch or polish existing drafts. This skill focuses on composition quality: tone adjustment, grammar correction, structure improvement, and context-aware subject line generation.

Capabilities

• Draft emails from a brief description or bullet points
• Polish and refine existing email text
• Adjust tone (formal, casual, friendly, urgent)
• Generate subject lines from email body
• Translate emails while preserving tone
• Output to clipboard, file, or directly to an email client

Examples

# Draft from scratch
"이메일 초안 써줘 -- 프로젝트 지연 사과, 공식적인 톤으로"

# Polish existing text
"이 이메일 다듬어줘: Hey, the thing is late, sorry about that"
→ Transforms into a professional apology with timeline

# Tone adjustment
"이 이메일 좀 더 부드럽게 고쳐줘"

# Subject line generation
"이 이메일에 맞는 제목 추천해줘"

gog (Gmail / Google Drive)

Interact with Gmail and Google Drive through the gog CLI integration. Search emails, read threads, manage labels, and browse Drive files without leaving the terminal.

Capabilities

• Search Gmail by sender, subject, date range, labels, or free text
• Read and summarize email threads
• Compose and send emails via Gmail API
• List, search, and download Google Drive files

himalaya (Terminal Email)

Read and manage email directly in the terminal using himalaya, a Rust-based CLI email client. Supports IMAP/SMTP with multiple accounts, making it ideal for quick inbox checks without switching to a browser.

Capabilities

• List and read emails from any IMAP account
• Search messages by subject, sender, or body
• Reply, forward, and compose new messages
• Manage folders (move, copy, delete)
• Attachment download and viewing

Configuration

Himalaya uses its own config file at ~/.config/himalaya/config.toml:

# ~/.config/himalaya/config.toml
[accounts.default]
email = "you@example.com"
display-name = "Your Name"
backend.type = "imap"
backend.host = "imap.example.com"
backend.port = 993
backend.encryption = "tls"
backend.login = "you@example.com"
backend.passwd.cmd = "security find-generic-password -s himalaya -a you@example.com -w"

message.send.backend.type = "smtp"
message.send.backend.host = "smtp.example.com"
message.send.backend.port = 465
message.send.backend.encryption = "tls"
message.send.backend.login = "you@example.com"

Examples

# Check inbox
"메일 읽어줘"
"받은편지함 확인해줘"

# Search messages
"지난 3일간 온 메일 중에 invoice 있는거 찾아줘"

# Reply
"이 메일에 '확인했습니다' 라고 답장해줘"

# Manage folders
"이 메일 archive 폴더로 옮겨줘"

Skill Comparison

Common Patterns

Multi-channel notifications

Combine communication skills in a single workflow to notify across channels:

# In a goal or workflow step
"배포 끝나면 텔레그램이랑 이메일로 알려줘"
→ Triggers telegram-send + email-draft-polish after deploy completes

# Broadcast to multiple channels
"이 공지사항 텔레그램, 왓츠앱, X 전부 보내줘"

Email workflow: draft, polish, send

Chain the email skills for a complete composition workflow:

# Step 1: Draft
"회의 결과 이메일 초안 써줘"

# Step 2: Polish
"좀 더 공식적으로 다듬어줘"

# Step 3: Send via Gmail or himalaya
"Gmail로 팀 전체에 보내줘"

Scheduled sends

Use CLI-JAW's scheduling to time your messages:

# Schedule a Telegram reminder
"내일 오전 9시에 텔레그램으로 '스탠드업 미팅' 리마인더 보내줘"

# Recurring digest email
"매주 금요일 오후 5시에 주간 보고 이메일 보내줘"
