gws gmail +reply-all --message-id 18f1a2b3c4d --body 'Adding Eve' --cc eve@example.com
gws gmail +reply-all --message-id 18f1a2b3c4d --body '<i>Noted</i>' --html
gws gmail +reply-all --message-id 18f1a2b3c4d --body 'Notes attached' -a notes.pdf
gws gmail +reply-all --message-id 18f1a2b3c4d --body 'Draft reply' --draft

Tips

Replies to the sender and all original To/CC recipients.
Use --to to add extra recipients to the To field.
Use --cc to add new CC recipients.
Use --bcc for recipients who should not be visible to others.
Use --remove to exclude recipients from the outgoing reply, including the sender or Reply-To target.
The command fails if no To recipient remains after exclusions and --to additions.
Use -a/--attach to add file attachments. Can be specified multiple times.
With --html, the quoted block uses Gmail's gmail_quote CSS classes and preserves HTML formatting. Use fragment tags (<p>, <b>, <a>, etc.) — no <html>/<body> wrapper needed.
With --html, inline images in the quoted message are preserved via cid: references.
Use --draft to save the reply as a draft instead of sending it immediately.
