If missing, run `gws generate-skills` to create it. Reply to a message (handles threading automatically) ## Usage ```bash gws gmail +reply --message-id <ID> --body <TEXT> ``` ## Flags | Flag | Required | Default | Description | |------|----------|---------|-------------| | `--message-id` | ✓ | — | Gmail message ID to reply to | | `--body` | ✓ | — | Reply body (plain text, or HTML with --html) | | `--from` | — | — | Sender address (for send-as/alias; omit to use account default) | | `--to` | — | — | Additional To email address(es), comma-separated | | `--attach` | — | — | Attach a file (can be specified multiple times) | | `--cc` | — | — | CC email address(es), comma-separated | | `--bcc` | — | — | BCC email address(es), comma-separated | | `--html` | — | — | Treat --body as HTML content (default is plain text) | | `--dry-run` | — | — | Show the request that would be sent without executing it | | `--draft` | — | — | Save as draft instead of sending | ## Examples ```bash gws gmail +reply --message-id 18f1a2b3c4d --body 'Thanks, got it!' gws gmail +reply --message-id 18f1a2b3c4d --body 'Looping in Carol' --cc carol@example.com gws gmail +reply --message-id 18f1a2b3c4d --body 'Adding Dave' --to dave@example.com gws gmail +reply --message-id 18f1a2b3c4d --body '<b>Bold reply</b>' --html gws gmail +reply --message-id 18f1a2b3c4d --body 'Updated version' -a updated.docx gws gmail +reply --message-id 18f1a2b3c4d --body 'Draft reply' --draft ``` ## Tips - Automatically sets In-Reply-To, References, and threadId headers. - Quotes the original message in the reply body. - --to adds extra recipients to the To field. - 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. - For reply-all, use +reply-all instead. ## See Also - [gws-shared](../gws-shared/SKILL.md) — Global flags and auth - [gws-gmail](../gws-gmail/SKILL.md) — All send, read, and manage email commands
