Live repository

Not pinned. Installing fetches whatever the repository holds at the time you run the command.

No human has reviewed this code. The checks below are a static scan of the files at one commit — nobody has run this skill or judged whether it works. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent, so read the source before you install it.

Automated safety checks

scanned

This skill passed all 6 checks. We read its files at one commit and looked for the things that make a skill dangerous to run — not for whether it works.

  • Declares what it does: passed

    SKILL.md parses and declares a name and a description.

    SKILL.md exists, its frontmatter parses, and it declares a name and a description.

  • No undeclared network calls: passed

    Makes no network calls.

    Every host the skill dials — from its scripts, its config endpoints or the commands it tells the agent to run — is either well-known package and API infrastructure or declared in its own frontmatter. Links in documentation are not counted.

  • No obfuscated payloads: passed

    No encoded or obfuscated payloads.

    No base64, hex or compressed blob is decoded and then executed, and no encoded shell commands.

  • No credential access: passed

    Reads no keys, tokens, keychains or credential files.

    Neither the code nor the SKILL.md instructions read SSH keys, cloud credentials, keychains, token stores, browser cookie databases or dotfiles that hold secrets.

  • No pipe-to-shell installers: passed

    No pipe-to-shell or download-and-run installers.

    No `curl … | sh` pattern, in the code or in the instructions, that runs code fetched at run time.

  • Pinned to a commit: passed

    Scanned googleworkspace/cli at a3768d0e82.

    The exact upstream commit SHA that was scanned is recorded, so the result refers to specific bytes.

This is a static scan, not a review. It reads the skill's files; it does not run them, and it cannot tell you whether the skill is any good or whether the code does what its description says. A skill runs with whatever access you give your agent.

About this skill

The gws-shared skill provides a shared library of utilities and common functions specifically designed to extend the capabilities of the Google Workspace CLI. It enables AI agents to perform complex administrative tasks across Gmail, Drive, Calendar, and other Workspace services with greater consistency. By standardizing access patterns, it simplifies the integration of diverse Workspace tools within automated workflows.

When to use it

  • Automating bulk management of Google Workspace resources like users, groups, or sharing permissions.
  • Building custom scripts that require cross-service logic between Gmail and Drive without rewriting core utilities.
  • Extending the default googleworkspace/cli functionality with specialized helper functions for enterprise environments.
  • Creating reusable agent workflows that need to interact with multiple Workspace APIs efficiently.

Key capabilities

  • Shared utility functions for interacting with various Google Workspace services.
  • Standardized access patterns for Gmail, Drive, Calendar, and other core tools.
  • Enhanced support for complex administrative operations within the CLI framework.
  • Modular design allowing seamless integration into larger automation pipelines.

Example prompts

  • "Use gws-shared to create a script that audits shared Drive folders across all domains in my organization."
  • "Help me build an agent workflow using gws-shared utilities to automatically archive old Gmail conversations and move them to long-term storage."
  • "Show me how to leverage the shared functions in gws-shared to synchronize user data between Google Calendar and a custom internal system."

Tips & gotchas

Ensure you have the base googleworkspace/cli installed before attempting to utilize gws-shared, as it relies on its underlying infrastructure. Be mindful that this skill acts as a library; specific implementation details often require combining these shared utilities with other targeted CLI commands or custom code logic.
