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.

About this skill

What it does

The gws-sheets-read skill enables AI agents to read and access data from Google Sheets. It provides functionality to retrieve spreadsheet contents, including cells, rows, or specific ranges of data, allowing for integration with other tools or workflows that require structured data.

When to use it

  • To extract tabular data from a Google Sheet for further processing or analysis.
  • When automating tasks that involve reading and interpreting spreadsheet content.
  • For integrating Google Sheets data into dashboards, reports, or external applications.

Key capabilities

  • Read individual cells or ranges of cells in a Google Sheet.
  • Access data from multiple sheets within the same spreadsheet file.
  • Retrieve structured data for use in other workflows or tools.

Example prompts

  • "Read the contents of cell A1 from the 'Data' sheet in this Google Sheet."
  • "Extract all rows from the 'Sales' sheet where the value in column B is greater than 100."
  • "Get the entire data range from the first sheet of this spreadsheet."

Tips & gotchas

  • Ensure that the AI agent has proper access permissions to the Google Sheet.
  • Be mindful of performance when reading large datasets, as it may affect response times.
