Does this work with personal @gmail.com accounts?

No, this skill requires a Google Workspace account; personal Gmail accounts are currently not supported by the Google Chat API for this type of integration.

Can I automate thread creation?

Yes, the skill allows you to list existing threads and send messages to specific spaces, facilitating automated thread management for organized project updates.

How is authentication handled securely?

The skill uses standalone OAuth authentication. Once authenticated via your browser, tokens are stored securely in your operating system's native keyring, such as macOS Keychain or Windows Credential Locker.

Do I need to set up a full MCP server?

No, this is a lightweight alternative that works directly with Python scripts and OAuth, making it easier to deploy than a full Model Context Protocol (MCP) server.

How do I find the ID of a specific chat space?

You can use the 'list-spaces' command to see all spaces you belong to, or 'find-space' followed by a search term to locate a specific space and its unique ID.
