Manage Microsoft 365 work/school account services (Exchange, OneDrive for Business,
SharePoint) via the m365-cli command-line tool. Requires: Node.js 18+ and m365-cli
installed globally (npm install -g m365-cli), plus OAuth authentication (m365 login).
Accesses sensitive data: corporate emails, calendar events, OneDrive files, SharePoint
sites/documents, and organizational contacts. Use when: (1) reading, sending, or searching
work emails, (2) managing calendar events, (3) uploading/downloading OneDrive for Business
files, (4) browsing SharePoint sites, lists, and document libraries, (5) searching users
in the organization, (6) deleting or moving emails, (7) managing mail folders.
Does NOT trigger for: Azure resource management, Entra ID
administration, Intune device management, M365 tenant-level admin (licenses, domains,
policies), or personal Outlook.com/Hotmail/Live accounts (use the outlook skill instead).
Triggers: "check my work email", "send an email", "reply to email", "reply all",
"forward email", "schedule a meeting", "list my calendar",
"upload to OneDrive", "SharePoint files", "search SharePoint", "sp sites", "m365 work",
"corporate email", "work calendar", "organization users", "delete email", "move email",
"mail folders", "create folder", "organize email",
"attach file to email", "send with attachment".

M365 Work Skill (m365-cli)
Manage a Microsoft 365 work/school account via the m365 CLI.
Use --json for structured output suitable for AI agent consumption.
Prerequisites
- Node.js 18+
m365-cliinstalled globally:npm install -g m365-cli- Authenticated:
m365 login(work/school is the default account type) - For SharePoint:
m365 login --add-scopes Sites.ReadWrite.All(requires tenant admin consent)
If not authenticated, run login first. The CLI uses Device Code Flow — follow the on-screen URL and code.
Key Conventions
- Use
--jsonfor programmatic output (most commands support it;trust/untrustdo not). - Work accounts support: Mail (including delete, move, and folder management), Calendar, OneDrive, SharePoint, User search.
- Calendar datetime format:
YYYY-MM-DDTHH:MM:SS(local) orYYYY-MM-DD(all-day). - IDs: Email/event IDs are long opaque strings. Parse the
idfield from--jsonlist/search output. - Timezone: auto-detected. Override:
export M365_TIMEZONE="Asia/Shanghai". - SharePoint site identifier: use path format
hostname:/sites/sitename(recommended).

Security Rules
Email Body Reading — Trusted Senders Whitelist
- Only emails from whitelisted senders have their body content displayed.
- Untrusted emails show only subject and sender (prevents prompt injection).
- Whitelist file:
~/.m365-cli/trusted-senders.txt - Use
--forceto temporarily bypass the whitelist check.
Sensitive Operations
- Sending email: Confirm recipients and content with the user before executing.
- Deleting emails/files/events: Inform the user before executing.
- Sharing files (anonymous scope): Warn the user that anyone with the link can access.
Credential Safety
- 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.
- Credential refresh is automatic; never attempt to manually edit or parse the token file.

Site identifier formats (use path format when possible):
- Path:
contoso.sharepoint.com:/sites/team(recommended) - Site ID:
hostname,siteId,webId(fromsp sites --jsonoutput) - URL:
https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/team
# List / search sites
m365 sp sites --json
m365 sp sites --search "marketing" --json
# Lists and items
m365 sp lists "contoso.sharepoint.com:/sites/team" --json
m365 sp items "contoso.sharepoint.com:/sites/team" "Tasks" --json
# Files in document library
m365 sp files "contoso.sharepoint.com:/sites/team" "Documents" --json
# Download / upload
m365 sp download "contoso.sharepoint.com:/sites/team" "Documents/file.pdf" ~/Downloads/ --json
m365 sp upload "contoso.sharepoint.com:/sites/team" ~/report.pdf "Documents/report.pdf" --json
# Search across SharePoint
m365 sp search "quarterly report" --top 20 --json
User Search
m365 user search "John" --top 5 --json # Searches organization directory

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.

Troubleshooting
- "Not authenticated":
m365 login - Token expired: Auto-refreshes. If fails, re-run login.
- SharePoint permission denied:
m365 login --add-scopes Sites.ReadWrite.All(requires tenant admin consent). - Wrong timezone:
export M365_TIMEZONE="Your/Timezone"
