Google Workspace CLI setup
Use this skill only when the user asks to connect Google Workspace through the external gws CLI.
This is not a built-in Tars integration.
Install safely
- Open the official Google Workspace CLI release documentation and identify a pinned release for
the user's platform.
- Download the release artifact without piping a remote script into a shell.
- Verify the publisher-provided checksum or signature before installation.
- Run
gws --version and gws --help to confirm the installed command and current syntax.
Do not guess current download URLs or authentication commands; the external project may change.
Authenticate
Follow the CLI's current official OAuth setup flow using a dedicated Google Cloud project and a
Desktop OAuth client. Enable only the Workspace APIs required by the user's workflow and choose the
smallest OAuth scopes that work.
Never paste a client secret, access token, or refresh token into chat, Tars memory, a skill file, or
the repository. Store and revoke credentials using the external CLI's documented credential store.
Generate skills
If the installed version supports skill generation, direct output to ~/.tars/skills/ and review
every generated SKILL.md before use. Remove recipes that request broader scopes or actions than the
user needs, then run:
tars memory sync
Generated skills are instructions; they do not create a sandbox or independently authorize Google
Workspace changes.
