Do I need an MCP server to use the Google Workspace skill?

No, this skill uses direct curl commands and Google APIs to interact with Workspace, meaning no additional MCP server or complex external dependencies are required.

How does the authentication process work?

The skill utilizes a standard OAuth 2.0 flow. You provide a Client ID and Secret from the Google Cloud Console, authorize the application in your browser, and the skill securely stores a refresh token locally.

Can I read specific tabs within a Google Doc?

Yes, the provided scripts support advanced document reading, allowing you to list all tabs, read specific tabs by name or index, or extract content from the entire document at once.

Is it possible to search for files using specific criteria like file type or date?

Absolutely. The skill supports advanced Drive query operators, enabling you to filter searches by mimeType, modifiedTime, ownership, and even content within the files.

What happens if my access token expires?

The scripts handle authentication automatically using the stored refresh token. If the refresh token itself expires or is revoked, you simply need to run the setup process again to re-authorize.
