Instructions file for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: the file is CLAUDE.md.

This is pm990320/google-workspace-mcp's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on google-workspace-mcp itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything google-workspace-mcp configures →

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

google-workspace-mcp CLAUDE.md 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 8d 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.

Google Workspace MCP Server

FastMCP server with 100+ tools for Google Workspace: Docs, Sheets, Drive, Gmail, Calendar, Slides, Forms, People (Contacts), and Excel files.

Multi-Account Support

All tools require an account parameter. Use listAccounts to see available accounts.

Tool Description
listAccounts List all connected Google accounts
addAccount Add a new Google account (returns OAuth URL). Optional credentialsPath for per-account OAuth apps.
removeAccount Remove a connected account

Config directory: ~/.google-mcp/

~/.google-mcp/
├── accounts.json                 # Account registry
├── credentials.json              # Global OAuth credentials (fallback)
├── credentials/
│   └── {accountName}.json        # Per-account OAuth credentials (optional)
└── tokens/
    └── {accountName}.json        # OAuth tokens per account

Credentials lookup priority:

  1. Explicit credentialsPath in account config
  2. ~/.google-mcp/credentials/{accountName}.json
  3. ~/.google-mcp/credentials.json (global)

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.
