|------|----------|---------|-------------|
| `--to` | ✓ | — | Recipient email address(es), comma-separated |
| `--subject` | ✓ | — | Email subject |
| `--body` | ✓ | — | Email body (plain text, or HTML with --html) |
| `--cc` | — | — | CC email address(es), comma-separated |

## Examples

```bash
gws gmail +send --to alice@example.com --subject 'Hello' --body 'Hi Alice!'
gws gmail +send --to alice@example.com --subject 'Hello' --body 'Hi!' --cc bob@example.com
gws gmail +send --to alice@example.com --subject 'Hello' --body 'Hi!' --bcc secret@example.com
gws gmail +send --to alice@example.com --subject 'Hello' --body '<b>Bold</b> text' --html
```

## Tips

- Handles RFC 2822 formatting and base64 encoding automatically.
- For attachments, use the raw API instead: gws gmail users messages send --json '...'

> [!CAUTION]
> This is a **write** command — confirm with the user before executing.
