What is Outlook CLI?
The Outlook CLI skill provides a direct bridge between your terminal and the Microsoft email ecosystem. Built to support personal Microsoft accounts like Outlook, Live, and Hotmail, this tool allows for seamless email interaction without leaving your development environment. By utilizing Openclaw Skills, developers can integrate email workflows into their automated agents or use it as a standalone productivity tool for managing correspondence efficiently.
This skill leverages the Microsoft Graph API to ensure secure and standardized access to your mailbox. It supports comprehensive email management tasks, from listing the latest messages to executing complex searches based on specific metadata like sender, date, or attachments. It is a vital component for anyone looking to automate their communication layer using Openclaw Skills.
Outlook CLI Use Cases
- Automating email notifications for system alerts or CI/CD pipeline results.
- Searching for specific invoices or documents using structured search operators.
- Reading and replying to emails directly from a terminal-based development environment.
- Integrating email management capabilities into AI-driven assistant workflows.
- Monitoring incoming mail from specific domains to trigger custom automation scripts.
How Outlook CLI Works
- The user registers an application in the Azure AD portal to obtain the necessary credentials and sets a local redirect URI.
- The skill is configured with the application credentials through the command line.
- An authentication flow is initiated to grant the skill permission to access the Microsoft account via OAuth2.
- Commands are issued through the CLI, which then translates them into Microsoft Graph API requests.
- The API processes the request (e.g., fetching a list of emails) and returns the data, which the skill formats for the user.

# Register app at https://portal.azure.com with Redirect URI: http://localhost:8080/callback
