setup

setup is a command for coding agents from stevegustafson32/google-multi-account. It costs 12 tokens per session (3,111 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A command that guides the setup of the Google Multi-Account MCP connection. It copies server files, installs dependencies, registers the server with Claude Desktop, and authenticates Google accounts.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to connect Gmail and Google Calendar accounts through the Google Multi-Account MCP plugin.
Why use it?
It automates the connection steps and explains important configuration details, including how Claude Desktop finds the server and how Node.js is launched.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

npx agentmods add commands/stevegustafson32/google-multi-account/setup
Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/stevegustafson32/google-multi-account

Or install google-multi-account, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 1 skill, 3 commands, 1 MCP server.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

setup scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 306 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Google Multi-Account MCP — Automated Setup

Guide the user through setting up the Google Multi-Account MCP plugin. This command handles everything: copying server files, installing dependencies, registering with Claude Desktop, and authenticating Google accounts.

CRITICAL: Pre-baked OAuth Credentials

This plugin ships with pre-baked OAuth credentials. Users do NOT need to create a GCP project, enable APIs, or generate their own OAuth client. The setup-tokens.js script uses shared credentials automatically.

NEVER walk users through GCP project setup unless they explicitly ask to use their own credentials.

CRITICAL LESSONS (from real-world installation failures)

  1. Cowork IGNORES plugin .mcp.json files. MCP servers MUST be registered in ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json to connect.
  2. NVM/volta/fnm node is invisible to Cowork. Never use bare node as the command. Use /bin/bash with the start.sh wrapper script that auto-discovers node.
  3. The MCP server must NEVER call process.exit() on config errors. Cowork marks crashed servers as permanently dead and won't retry. The server starts with zero tools instead.
  4. Plugin zip extraction is unreliable. Server files may not land in the plugin directory. Always copy server source to ~/.google-multi-mcp/server/ as the canonical location.
  5. Paths with spaces break things. The plugin install path contains "Application Support" and deep UUID directories. Always use ~/.google-multi-mcp/ as the clean install target.

Step 0: Detect the platform FIRST

Every path in this document differs by OS. Determine which one you're on before running anything, and use only that column.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
