outlook

Manage personal Microsoft account (Outlook.com / Hotmail / Live) email, calendar, and OneDrive via the m365-cli command-line tool. Use for personal email/calendar/OneDrive tasks — NOT for work/school accounts (use the m365-work skill) or SharePoint (personal accounts don't support it).

Outlook Skill (m365-cli)

Manage a personal Microsoft account (Outlook.com / Hotmail / Live) via the m365 CLI. Use --json for structured output suitable for AI agent consumption (most commands support it).

Prerequisites

  • Node.js 18+
  • m365-cli installed globally: npm install -g m365-cli
  • Authenticated: m365 login --account-type personal

If not authenticated, run login first. The CLI uses Device Code Flow — follow the on-screen URL and code.

Key Conventions

  • Use --json for programmatic output (most commands support it; trust/untrust do not).
  • Personal accounts support: Mail (including delete, move, and folder management), Calendar, OneDrive, User search. Not SharePoint.
  • Calendar datetime format: YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS (local) or YYYY-MM-DD (all-day).
  • IDs: Email/event IDs are long opaque strings. Parse the id field from --json list/search output.
  • Timezone: auto-detected. Override: export M365_TIMEZONE="Asia/Shanghai".

Provenance

  • Source repo: https://github.com/mrhah/m365-cli
  • Package: https://www.npmjs.com/package/m365-cli
  • Publisher: mrhah
  • Required binary: m365 from the m365-cli npm package

Common Patterns

Read and reply to email

m365 mail list --top 5 --json                    # 1. Find email
m365 mail read <id> --force --json               # 2. Read content
m365 mail reply <id> "Reply content" --json      # 3. Reply

Reply with attachment

m365 mail reply <id> "See attached" --attach report.pdf --json

Forward with attachment

m365 mail forward <id> "boss@example.com" "FYI" --attach data.xlsx --json

Check calendar and schedule

m365 cal list --days 3 --json                    # 1. Check availability
m365 cal create "Meeting" -s "..." -e "..." --json  # 2. Book slot

Download email attachment

m365 mail attachments <msg-id> --json            # 1. List attachments
m365 mail download-attachment <msg-id> <att-id> ~/Downloads/ --json  # 2. Download

Delete and organize email

m365 mail list --top 10 --json                   # 1. Find email
m365 mail delete <id> --force --json              # 2a. Delete it, OR
m365 mail move <id> archive --json                # 2b. Move to archive

Manage mail folders

m365 mail folder list --json                      # 1. List all folders
m365 mail folder create "Projects" --json         # 2. Create custom folder
m365 mail move <id> <folder-id> --json            # 3. Move email into it

Trusted Senders (Security)

m365 mail read filters untrusted sender content (shows metadata only). Use --force to bypass. See references/commands.md for whitelist management commands.

Full Command Reference

See references/commands.md for every command, subcommand, flag, and default value.

Troubleshooting

  • "Not authenticated": m365 login --account-type personal
  • Token expired: Auto-refreshes. If fails, re-run login.
  • SharePoint errors: Personal accounts don't support SharePoint.
  • Wrong timezone: export M365_TIMEZONE="Your/Timezone"

Security & Privacy

This skill accesses personal email, calendar, files, and contacts — all sensitive PII.

  • Never read, output, or log ~/.m365-cli/credentials.json — it contains OAuth tokens.
  • Never include full email bodies or attachment contents in agent output unless the user explicitly requested that specific email.
  • Summarize email content instead of echoing it verbatim when presenting results to the user.
  • Credential refresh is automatic; never attempt to manually edit or parse the token file.
  • When listing emails, prefer showing metadata (subject, sender, date) over full body content.
