A schema-driven command line tool for administering Stalwart Mail and Collaboration Server over its JMAP API.

The tool fetches the server's schema on first use and derives every command, validation rule, and rendered view from it. The same binary works against any compatible Stalwart deployment without recompilation.

Overview

| | | |---|---| | describe | Inspect objects, fields, enums, filters, and sort options exposed by the server. | | get / query | Fetch a single object or list / filter many. | | create / update / delete | Single-object mutations. | | apply | Apply a JSON plan of bulk creates, updates, and destroys (intended for Ansible, Terraform, NixOS, Pulumi, and CI/CD pipelines). | | snapshot | Export live server state as an apply-ready JSON plan. Useful for backups, cross-environment promotion, and round-trip disaster-recovery rehearsals. |

Output is human-friendly by default (sectioned, with color when stdout is a TTY) and switches to compact JSON or NDJSON for machine consumption.
