Gmail: Reply-all to a message (handles threading automatically).

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

6 rules. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 5 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈1

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 5

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  1. Very specific:

    Use --to to add extra recipients to the To field.

    line 56
  2. Very specific:

    Use --cc to add new CC recipients.

    line 57
  3. Very specific:

    Use --bcc for recipients who should not be visible to others.

    line 58
  4. Very specific:

    Use --remove to exclude recipients from the outgoing reply, including the sender or Reply-To target.

    line 59
  5. Distinctive:

    Use -a/--attach to add file attachments.

    line 61
  6. Very specific:

    Use --draft to save the reply as a draft instead of sending it immediately.

    line 64

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 308,232 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Tips

  • Replies to the sender and all original To/CC recipients.
  • Use --to to add extra recipients to the To field.
  • Use --cc to add new CC recipients.
  • Use --bcc for recipients who should not be visible to others.
  • Use --remove to exclude recipients from the outgoing reply, including the sender or Reply-To target.
  • The command fails if no To recipient remains after exclusions and --to additions.
  • Use -a/--attach to add file attachments. Can be specified multiple times.
  • With --html, the quoted block uses Gmail's gmail_quote CSS classes and preserves HTML formatting. Use fragment tags (<p>, <b>, <a>, etc.) — no <html>/<body> wrapper needed.
  • With --html, inline images in the quoted message are preserved via cid: references.
  • Use --draft to save the reply as a draft instead of sending it immediately.
