google-calendar-mcp-app: Skill for Claude Code

.claude/skills/gcal-api-research/SKILL.md

gcal-api-research is a skill for Claude Code from QuantGeekDev/google-calendar-mcp-app. It costs 82 tokens per session (2,928 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of gcal-api-research, MIT.

A research guide for building or reviewing integrations with the Google Calendar API, the service interface used by software to read and change calendars.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan features, review pull requests, investigate calendar bugs, or validate an implementation approach.
Why use it?
It helps verify the right API methods and account for recurring events, time zones, batch operations, and other edge cases before implementation.

Skill for Claude Code

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

gcal-api-research 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 Calendar API Research

Quick Start

What are you doing?

  • 📝 Reviewing a PR → Read references/research-checklist.md first
  • 🚀 Planning a feature → Start with Step 1 below, then consult relevant references
  • 🐛 Investigating an issue → Check references/edge-cases.md for known pitfalls
  • Validating an approach → Read references/api-patterns.md for best practices

Then follow the detailed workflow below.

Overview

This skill provides a structured approach to researching Google Calendar API implementations, identifying best practices, and uncovering potential edge cases. Use this skill to ensure implementations leverage Google Calendar APIs appropriately with good defaults while supporting complex use cases.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when:

  • Reviewing PRs that add new Google Calendar functionality (e.g., "feat: add respond-to-event tool")
  • Planning new features before implementation begins
  • Investigating issues with existing Google Calendar integrations
  • Validating implementation approaches against Google Calendar API best practices
  • Researching edge cases for specific calendar operations

This skill is particularly valuable for features involving:

  • Recurring event handling
  • Timezone conversions
  • Batch operations across multiple calendars
  • Event conflict detection
  • Attendee management
  • Conference data integration

Research Workflow

Step 1: Understand the Feature

First, identify what the implementation does or plans to do:

  1. For PR Reviews: Read the PR description and examine the code changes
  2. For Feature Planning: Clarify the requirements and desired functionality
  3. For Issues: Understand the reported problem and expected behavior

Key Questions:

  • What Google Calendar API operations are involved?
  • What user scenarios does this support?
  • What are the critical requirements (performance, reliability, edge cases)?

Step 2: Consult Reference Materials

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.
