google-workspace

google-workspace is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from pbc-os/smb-starter-kit. It costs 52 tokens per session (2,410 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A setup guide for gws, a command-line tool that lets an AI agent use Google Workspace services such as Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Sheets, Docs, Chat, and Tasks. It returns structured JSON, a machine-readable format suited to agents.

In plain words
What is it for?
Setting up agent access to read and manage email, calendars, files, spreadsheets, documents, chats, tasks, and other Google Workspace services.
Why use it?
It gives the agent one connection method for many Google services instead of separate setup instructions for each one. It also discovers Google’s available API commands when it runs.

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.

Fable 5.1 $0.00052 $0.02410
Opus 5.5 $0.00021 $0.00964
Sonnet 5.5 $0.00010 $0.00482

Security

Grade A, and why

google-workspace 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 2mo 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 302 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Google Workspace

Give your agent access to all of Google Workspace through one CLI.

This skill sets up gws — a command-line tool that wraps every Google Workspace API (Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Sheets, Docs, Chat, Tasks, Meet, Forms, and more). It outputs structured JSON, making it ideal for AI agents.

Attribution: The gws CLI was created by Justin Poehnelt, Developer Relations Engineer at Google. It's the foundation that makes the entire Google Workspace skill tier possible.

gws doesn't ship a static list of commands. It reads Google's Discovery Service at runtime and builds its command surface dynamically. When Google adds an API endpoint, gws picks it up automatically.

Triggers

  • "set up google workspace"
  • "connect gmail / calendar / drive / sheets"
  • "install gws"
  • "I need to read my email"
  • "I need to manage my calendar"
  • Any request that requires Google Workspace access and gws isn't installed yet

What This Enables

Once gws is set up, these skills become available:

Tier Skill What It Does
2 gmail Send, read, triage, reply, forward email
2 google-calendar Manage events, check availability, meeting prep
2 google-chat Send messages to Google Chat spaces
3 google-drive Manage files, folders, shared drives
3 google-sheets Read, write, create spreadsheets
3 google-docs Create and edit documents
3 google-tasks Manage task lists and to-dos
5 morning-briefing Daily digest combining email, calendar, and business data

Prerequisites

  • Node.js 18+ — check with node --version
  • A Google Cloud project — gws auth setup can create one, or use an existing project
  • A Google account with access to Google Workspace (works with personal Gmail too)

Installation

Option 1: npm (recommended)

npm install -g @googleworkspace/cli

Changes

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.
