| description | Access third-party services (Gmail, Slack, Google Calendar, GitHub) and custom Auth0 connections on behalf of authenticated users via Auth0 Token Vault. Use when the user wants to search, read, send, or manage emails, manage calendar events, interact with Slack, manage GitHub repos/issues/PRs/notifications, make authenticated API calls to third-party services or custom identity providers, connect or disconnect external services, or check their authentication and connection status. Wraps the auth0-tv CLI.

Auth0 Token Vault CLI
Use the auth0-tv command-line tool to access third-party services on behalf of
authenticated users via Auth0 Token Vault.
Current status
- Auth status: !
auth0-tv --json status 2>/dev/null || echo '{"error":{"code":"not_configured","message":"auth0-tv not configured or not logged in"}}'
First-time setup
If auth0-tv --json status returns a not_configured error, guide the user through setup:
-
Run the interactive setup wizard (recommended — handles all steps automatically):
auth0-tv init
The init wizard will check prerequisites, configure Token Vault, set up callback URLs, retrieve credentials, and authenticate — all in one guided flow.
All setup steps require human interaction. Do not attempt to run them autonomously.
Manual setup (alternative)
If the wizard is not suitable, guide the user through manual setup:
-
Install Auth0 CLI (if not already installed):
brew tap auth0/auth0-cli && brew install auth0
-
Run the Token Vault setup wizard (interactive — requires human):
npx configure-auth0-token-vault
The wizard handles Auth0 CLI login automatically. When prompted:
- Select Create a new application (or use an existing one)
- Select Regular Web Application for the app type
- Select Refresh Token Exchange for the Token Vault configuration
Note the Client ID from the output.
-
Configure callback URLs using the Auth0 CLI (replace <APP_ID> with the Client ID):
auth0 apps update <APP_ID> \
--callbacks "http://127.0.0.1:18484/callback,http://127.0.0.1:18485/callback,http://127.0.0.1:18486/callback,http://127.0.0.1:18487/callback,http://127.0.0.1:18488/callback,http://127.0.0.1:18489/callback" \
--logout-urls "http://127.0.0.1:18484,http://127.0.0.1:18485,http://127.0.0.1:18486,http://127.0.0.1:18487,http://127.0.0.1:18488,http://127.0.0.1:18489"
-
Get the client secret (needed during auth0-tv login):
auth0 apps show <APP_ID> --reveal-secrets
-
Log in with auth0-tv:
auth0-tv login
All setup steps require human interaction. Do not attempt to run them autonomously.
When to use this skill
- The user asks to read, search, send, reply, forward, archive, or delete emails
- The user wants to manage email drafts or labels
- The user wants to view, create, update, or delete Google calendar events
- The user wants to search Slack messages, post to channels, or manage their Slack status
- The user wants to list repos, view issues/PRs, create issues, search code, or manage GitHub notifications
- The user wants to make an authenticated API call to a third-party service
- The user wants to connect or disconnect a third-party service (Gmail, Google Calendar, Slack, GitHub)
- The user wants to connect a custom Auth0 connection (any social/enterprise identity provider configured on their tenant)
- The user asks about their authentication or connection status
Key patterns
Always use --json mode
All commands must use --json for structured output:
auth0-tv --json <command>
Alternatively, set AUTH0_TV_OUTPUT=json in the environment to avoid passing --json on every call.
Destructive actions require --confirm
Commands that modify data (send, delete, archive, forward, reply, draft send, draft delete) require --confirm:
auth0-tv --json --confirm gmail send --to user@example.com --subject "Subject" --body "Body"
Exit codes and recovery
| Code | Meaning | Recovery action |
|---|
| 0 | Success | Parse JSON output |
| 1 | General error | Report error to user |
| 2 | Invalid input | Check command syntax and required flags |
| 3 | Auth required | Tell the user to run auth0-tv login |
| 4 | Connection required | Tell the user to run auth0-tv connect <service> |
| 5 | Service error | Retry or report upstream API failure |
| 6 | Network error | Check connectivity, retry |
Important: Exit codes 3 and 4 require human intervention — login and connect open a browser for OAuth. Do not attempt to run these commands autonomously; instead, tell the user what to run.
Auth and connect/logout callback servers default to trying ports 18484-18489. If that range is blocked, pass the global --port <number> flag or set AUTH0_TV_PORT to force a specific port (that port must be allowed in Auth0 app callback settings).
Body input for email composition
For send, reply, and draft create, the message body can be provided via:
--body "inline text" — short messages
--body-file ./message.txt — longer messages from a file
- stdin:
echo "body" | auth0-tv --json --confirm gmail send --to ... --subject ...
Prefer --body-file or stdin for messages containing special characters.

Known services have default allowed domains built in. Custom connections require --allowed-domains to be set during connect:
| Service | Default allowed domains |
|---|
gmail | *.googleapis.com |
calendar | *.googleapis.com |
github | api.github.com |
slack | slack.com, *.slack.com |
Additional domains can be added via --allowed-domains on connect. Custom connections have no default domains — you must specify --allowed-domains when connecting. Only HTTPS URLs are allowed.
