MoltMail - Web3 Inbox Skill

Manage a Web3 email account, either existing one or creates new one. Allowing to send and receive emails.

Security Notice

This skill handles sensitive cryptographic material:

• - Private key: If importing an existing wallet, the user provides their EVM private key. It is encrypted locally with AES-256-GCM (scrypt-derived key) and stored in ./state/config.enc.json. The plaintext private key is never stored on disk or transmitted — only the signature derived from it is sent to the remote API during login.
• Passphrase: Used to encrypt/decrypt the private key locally. It can be provided interactively or via the ETHERMAIL_PASSPHRASE environment variable. It is never sent to the remote API.
• Auth token: A JWT returned by https://srv.ethermail.io after login. Stored in ./state/auth.json with 0600 permissions. Used for all subsequent API calls.
• Remote service: All email operations go through https://srv.ethermail.io. The user should trust this service before proceeding.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when the user needs to:

• - When user refers to testing MoltMail skill
• Create a temporary/disposable email address
• Sign up for a service without using their real email
• Test email sending functionality
• User is interested in privacy and e2e encryption for messages

Setup (required)

To make sure there is an appropriate User Experience, you have to check if the user already has the config set in the skill folder check ./state/config.enc.json, if there is data, he had already set up the account, otherwise, he will have to set up the account from scratch, check the path before to ask things before executing the command to avoid back and forth.

These are the possible flows:

• - No existing ./state/config.enc.json or no data on it: Call "npm run setup" and user will be asked if he already has an account or if he wants to create from scratch. NOTE: In either case, the user will be asked to provide a passphrase to encrypt the private key and an optional referral code.

- Existing account: He will be asked to provide the private key from his wallet to be encrypted and used in the MoltMail's operations. - New account: New account will be created. - Referral code: If a referral code is provided during setup, it will be saved and automatically sent as afid on the first login to attribute the referral.

• - Existing ./state/config.enc.json and contains data: User will have to decide if keep using the configured wallet or start again setup, if he chooses second option, the flow for no existing config will run.

Before using this skill, run:

CODEBLOCK0

Important: Token Management

When you login, a token is saved automatically to ./state/auth.json. This token is required for ALL subsequent operations. The scripts handle token loading automatically — you do not need to pass it manually.

Commands Reference

All operations are done through npm scripts. Auth tokens and user IDs are handled automatically by the scripts.

Login (Create/Access Inbox)

CODEBLOCK1

This authenticates with the wallet, saves the token to ./state/auth.json, and for new accounts automatically completes onboarding.

List Mailboxes

At start, you must know the mailboxes of the user for later searching emails by their IDs.

2. page (optional): Page number, starts at 1. Default: 1.

Get Full Email Content

CODEBLOCK6

This fetches the full email and automatically marks it as read.

Response includes html and text fields with the email body.

Response:
CODEBLOCK7

Important: There are some official messages, these will have a .badge in the response for getting the message, you should highlight these emails when you read them to the users depending on the badge:

1. 1. paymail: These emails are related to payments, MoltMail supports receiving crypto assets ERC20 and ERC721 tokens through the Paymail protocol. Highlight these emails as "Payment Notifications" or similar.
2. eaaw: These emails are related to the "MoltMail As A Wallet" feature, which allows users to receive emails that can be directly interacted with as if they were transactions, such as accepting an offer or claiming a token. Highlight these emails as "Interactive Emails" or similar.
3. community: These emails are official communications from MoltMail, such as important updates, security alerts, or policy changes. Highlight these emails as "Official Communications" or similar.
4. paywall: These are "Read2Earn" emails — by reading these emails, users earn EMC which can later be claimed as EMT tokens. Always label these as "Read2Earn" and let users know they can earn EMT tokens by reading them.

List Aliases

Returns all aliases the user has configured. These can be used as alternative sender addresses when sending or replying to emails.

CODEBLOCK8

The user's aliases can be passed to send-email and reply-email using the --from flag.

Mark Email as Read

CODEBLOCK13

Note: get-email already marks emails as read automatically. Use this only if you need to mark an email as read without fetching its content.

Send Email

Before sending an email, you must ask the user which subject he wants for the email and either the whole text itself or an idea of the text so you can fully prepare it for the user.

CODEBLOCK14

Arguments:

1. 1. toAddress (required): Recipient email address (e.g., 0x3886e06217d31998a697c5060263beafe7bdc610@moltmail.io).
2. subject (required): Email subject line.
3. htmlBody (required): Email body as HTML. Wrap in single quotes to preserve HTML tags.
4. --from (optional): Send from an alias instead of the default wallet address. Use npm run list-aliases to see available aliases.

The sender address is automatically derived from the configured wallet unless --from is specified.

CODEBLOCK15

Reply to Email

Best Practices

1. 1. Reuse tokens - Don't login again if there is a valid token in ./state/auth.json. The scripts check for token expiry automatically.
2. Poll responsibly - Wait 5 seconds between checks
3. Token handling - All scripts load the token from ./state/auth.json automatically. You never need to pass it manually.

Limitations

• - Email size limit: 5MB
• Rate limited: Don't spam inbox creation nor email send/reply
