gws-shared

gws-shared is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from StreakYC/googleworkspacecli. It costs 21 tokens per session (1,753 once invoked), scanned A, original, from a forked repository, Apache-2.0.

Shared instructions for using the gws command-line tool in a proxy-authenticated environment. They explain the required way to identify the user for each command and which normal login or installation steps to avoid.

In plain words
What is it for?
Running gws commands through the configured proxy, especially when acting on behalf of a specified user.
Why use it?
They prevent failed authentication and accidental changes to the customised setup.

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

gws-shared 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 1mo 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.

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 152 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

gws — Shared Reference

This is a customized gws-shared for a headless, proxy-authenticated environment. The auth model below replaces the upstream gws auth login / service-account flow — do not follow auth instructions from upstream docs or --help output.

Installation

The gws binary is already installed and on $PATH. Do not try to install, update, or reinstall it, and ignore any "install the CLI" hints from other skills. Do not run gws generate-skills as it will overwrite our customized configurations.

Authentication

There is no interactive user and no service-account key file here, so the usual flows do not work and must not be attempted:

  • Do not run gws auth login, gws auth setup, or any gws auth ... command.
  • Do not set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS or point at a key.json.

Instead, authentication is handled transparently by a proxy. On every command you MUST pass --email=<address> naming the user you are acting on behalf of:

gws gmail +send [email protected] --to [email protected] --subject 'Hi' --body 'Hello' --draft

The gws wrapper forwards the request through the proxy, which swaps the --email=<address> you supply for that user's real OAuth token before the request reaches Google. You never see, request, or handle tokens yourself — you only ever name the acting user with --email.

  • Use the equals form --email=<address> (not --email <address>). Only the equals form is recognized; the space-separated form is treated as missing.
  • --email=<address> is required on every invocation, across all services (gmail, calendar, drive, …). This is the cross-surface convention for this environment.
  • The per-surface skill examples omit --email for brevity — add it to every real command you run.
  • Never ask for, print, or invent an OAuth token, API key, or credentials path — the proxy owns all of that.
  • If a command fails saying --email is required, add it. Do not fall back to gws auth login.

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.
