Google Drive Upload

Upload files directly to Google Drive via a deployed Google Apps Script web app.

Completely free — unlimited uploads, no restrictions.

Environment note: This skill works in both Claude Code and Cowork. The only difference is how the config file is read in Step 1 — Claude Code reads it directly, Cowork uses osascript.

---

Step 1: Read the config

The config lives on the Mac at ~/.cowork-gdrive-config.json.

In Claude Code (direct file system access):

CONFIG=$(cat ~/.cowork-gdrive-config.json 2>/dev/null || echo "NOT_CONFIGURED")

In Cowork (VM — needs osascript to reach the Mac home):

CONFIG=$(osascript -e 'do shell script "cat ~/.cowork-gdrive-config.json 2>/dev/null || echo NOT_CONFIGURED"')

Then parse it safely in Python — never log or print the raw config string:

python3 -c "
import json, sys
raw = '''$CONFIG'''
if raw.strip() == 'NOT_CONFIGURED':
    print('STATUS:NOT_CONFIGURED')
    sys.exit(0)
try:
    cfg = json.loads(raw)
    print('STATUS:OK')
    print(f'URL:{cfg[\"url\"]}')
except Exception as e:
    print(f'STATUS:PARSE_ERROR:{e}')
"

• If STATUS:NOT_CONFIGURED → tell the user: "The Google Drive connection isn't set up yet. Please follow the setup instructions at https://msapps.mobi/plugins to configure your Apps Script URL." Stop here.
• If STATUS:PARSE_ERROR → tell the user the config file is malformed and ask them to check ~/.cowork-gdrive-config.json.
• If STATUS:OK → extract URL from output. Continue.

Step 2: Identify the file

Check common output locations — use the file the user specified, or find the most recent:

ls -lt "$HOME/Documents/Claude/"*.* 2>/dev/null | head -5
ls -lt /sessions/*/mnt/outputs/ 2>/dev/null | head -5
ls -lt /sessions/*/mnt/Claude/ 2>/dev/null | head -5

Ask the user to confirm which file to upload if it's not obvious.

Step 3: Upload the file

Always use the temp file approach — it handles filenames with spaces, Hebrew characters, and special chars safely:
