AC imap-idle-watcher

Real-time email monitoring using IMAP IDLE — no OAuth, no token expiration. Sets up a persistent connection to any IMAP server (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, etc.) and triggers a user-defined command instantly when new email arrives. Runs as a systemd service with auto-reconnect. Use when: (1) setting up email-triggered automation, (2) watching an inbox for new messages in real-time, (3) replacing OAuth-based email polling that keeps breaking due to token expiry, (4) building email-to-webhook or email-to-script pipelines. NOT for: sending email, reading/parsing email bodies, or non-Linux systems without systemd.

How to improve

    For the model run — optional
    • Your own cases (evals/evals.json, 4–6 real requests with expected answers): the full check would then run those instead of a model-drafted suite.
    • A spec.yaml with trigger phrases and assertions — a behaviour contract for CI; `skilltest init` writes a template.

    Process rating: all ten parameters 52/100

    • 0Result and completion. Does not say what the result is
    • 0Inputs and preconditions. Does not say what the process needs to start
    • 0Progress reporting. Says nothing while it works
    • 30Running it twice. 4 mutating operations with no state check
    • 50When it triggers. No condition that starts the skill
    • 50Failures and branches. 0 branches, has a failure section
    • 60Tools and files. Uses tools (bash, python) that frontmatter does not declare
    • 100Steps. 17 steps
    • 100Consistency. Name and required fields are in place
    • 100Execution cost. Instruction body is 996 tokens

    Everything here is measured from the skill text rather than judged by a model, so the numbers are checkable. A parameter weighs more when it is a more common reason for the process to stall.

    ClawHub: suspicious
    This email watcher is not deceptive, but it installs a persistent service that can run arbitrary shell commands on incoming mail and may run with elevated local privileges.
