Channel email
Lionclaw is a local control plane for AI coding agents. It runs AI agents as durable, auditable workers with explicit state, skills, channels, schedules, and bounded permissions.

Email Channel
This skill runs the host-side Email channel worker. It owns mailbox auth, IMAP/SMTP transport, held-mail state, and provider-specific email handling. The runtime never receives mailbox credentials or OAuth tokens.
The channel admits only exact approved senders through LionClaw channel grants.
Unknown mail is held or suppressed by the worker and must not become runtime
work unless the local operator explicitly approves the sender or releases an
authenticated held item. Full message bodies are fetched only after approval
and are capped by EMAIL_MAX_MESSAGE_BYTES before any runtime work is queued.
Mailbox auth is either EMAIL_AUTH_MODE=basic with IMAP/SMTP passwords, or
EMAIL_AUTH_MODE=xoauth2 with an absolute EMAIL_XOAUTH2_TOKEN_CMD; missing
EMAIL_AUTH_MODE defaults to basic for legacy configs. The normal OAuth2 setup
path is lionclaw connect email <provider> ..., which runs this channel's
setup helper from the installed channel snapshot. The channel binary also
exposes the lower-level oauth2 setup and oauth2 token commands; token
refresh runs host-side without a shell and prints only a short-lived access
token to stdout. Refresh-token state remains outside runtime projection.
This channel package also carries the runtime-facing email Agent Skill at
runtime/email/. LionClaw projects that facet into runtimes when this skill is
bound as the email channel, while keeping the host-side channel package and
mail transport credentials out of the runtime.
Detailed architecture, setup, QA, one-shot release behavior, and packaged asset
notes for this channel live in README.md in this skill directory.
