   • Create OAuth2 desktop credentials
   • Save as ~/.config/giztui/credentials.json

2. Run interactive setup:

   giztui --setup

3. Launch GizTUI:

   giztui

Local AI with Ollama:

# Install Ollama
curl -fsSL https://ollama.ai/install.sh | sh

# Pull a model
ollama pull llama2

# Configure GizTUI
echo '{
  "llm": {
    "provider": "ollama",
    "ollama": {
      "model": "llama2"
    }
  }
}' > ~/.config/giztui/config.json

GizTUI includes several built-in themes and supports custom themes:

Built-in themes: slate-blue (default), gmail-dark, gmail-light, dracula, custom-example

Configure theme:

{
  "theme": {
    "current": "gmail-dark",
    "custom_dir": "/path/to/your/custom/themes"
  }
}

Theme directory resolution (priority order):

1. custom_dir - Your custom themes directory (if specified)
2. ~/.config/giztui/themes/ - User themes directory
3. Built-in themes (embedded in binary)

Runtime theme switching: Press H to open theme picker with live preview.

⚠️ Important for go install users: If themes don't work, ensure your config has the correct theme.current parameter (not ui.theme). See the Configuration Guide for details.

Bulk operations: v to enter bulk mode, space to select, then use any action key.

VIM-style ranges: a5a archives 5 messages, d3d deletes 3, t2t toggles read on 2.
