+#+TITLE: eml-view-and-extract-attachments.py
+
+Extract email content and attachments from EML files with auto-renaming.
+
+* Usage
+
+#+begin_src bash
+# View mode — print metadata and body to stdout, extract attachments alongside EML
+python3 .ai/scripts/eml-view-and-extract-attachments.py inbox/message.eml
+
+# Pipeline mode — extract, auto-rename, refile to output dir, clean up
+python3 .ai/scripts/eml-view-and-extract-attachments.py inbox/message.eml --output-dir assets/
+#+end_src
+
+* Naming Convention
+
+Files are auto-renamed as =YYYY-MM-DD-HHMM-Sender-TYPE-Description.ext=:
+
+- =2026-02-05-1136-Jonathan-EMAIL-Re-Fw-4319-Danneel-Street.eml=
+- =2026-02-05-1136-Jonathan-EMAIL-Re-Fw-4319-Danneel-Street.txt=
+- =2026-02-05-1136-Jonathan-ATTACH-Ltr-Carrollton.pdf=
+
+Date and sender are parsed from email headers. Falls back to "unknown" for missing values.
+
+* Dependencies
+
+- Python 3 (stdlib only for core functionality)
+- =html2text= (optional — used for HTML-only emails, falls back to tag stripping)
+
+* Pipeline Mode Behavior
+
+1. Creates a temp directory alongside the source EML
+2. Copies and renames the EML, writes a =.txt= of the body, extracts attachments
+3. Checks for filename collisions in the output directory
+4. Moves all files to the output directory
+5. Cleans up the temp directory
+6. Prints a summary of created files
+
+Source EML is never modified or moved.
+
+* Tests
+
+#+begin_src bash
+python3 -m pytest .ai/scripts/tests/ -v
+#+end_src
+
+48 tests: unit tests for parsing, filename generation, and attachment saving; integration tests for both pipeline and stdout modes. Requires =pytest=.
