CRIEW

CRIEW is a Rust TUI for Linux kernel patch mail workflows. It keeps subscription, sync, review, patch application, and reply in one terminal-first local workflow. CRIEW is the repository name, while the crate and CLI use lowercase criew.

Full documentation lives in the CRIEW wiki.

Chinese quick start: README-zh.md

Quick Start

cargo install criew
criew doctor
criew sync --mailbox io-uring

Use the wiki before enabling IMAP, patch application, or reply sending.
