Skill for Claude Code

Written for Claude Code: installed under .claude/. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions Claude Code.

This is anton-abyzov/vskill's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on vskill 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 vskill configures →

SkillSpector: 2 findings, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

    Code accesses credential files (SSH keys, AWS credentials, etc.). This could indicate credential theft attempts.
    Fix: Remove references to credential paths. Use environment variables or secrets managers. For docs, use placeholder paths (e.g., /path/to/config). Never load .env or token files in production code paths.

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 B, and why

gws scanned grade B with 1 finding 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.

.claude/, .codex/, .gemini/ hold keys, settings and other credentials a mod has no legitimate need for.

Google Workspace CLI (gws)

One CLI for all of Google Workspace — Drive, Gmail, Calendar, Sheets, Docs, Chat, Admin, and every API published via Google Discovery Service. Built in Rust, distributed via npm, designed for humans and AI agents.

Upstream: googleworkspace/cli (Apache 2.0) Status: Pre-v1.0 — breaking changes possible. Pin versions in production scripts.


When to Use gws vs Native Claude MCP

Need Use
Read/send Gmail Native claude_ai_Gmail (already configured)
Calendar events Native claude_ai_Google_Calendar (already configured)
Google Drive files gws (no native integration)
Google Sheets gws (no native integration)
Google Docs gws (no native integration)
Google Chat gws (no native integration)
Admin / Directory gws (no native integration)
Bulk automation across services gws (unified CLI, scriptable)
Custom/new Google APIs gws (dynamic discovery picks up new APIs automatically)

Installation

# Via npm (recommended — includes pre-built native binary)
npm install -g @googleworkspace/cli

# Verify
gws --version

Alternative: download pre-built binaries from GitHub Releases.


Authentication Setup

Prerequisites

  1. A Google Cloud project (create via console.cloud.google.com or gcloud)
  2. Required Google APIs enabled in the project (Drive API, Gmail API, etc.)
  3. OAuth consent screen configured (add test users if in testing mode)

Interactive Setup (Recommended)

# Guided setup — walks through GCP project configuration
gws auth setup

# OAuth login — opens browser for consent
gws auth login

# Verify authentication
gws auth status

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.
