Workspace Administration Expert

Overview

The Workspace Administration Expert is a dedicated agent designed to act as a specialist in Google Workspace management. It orchestrates complex workflows using the powerful gws CLI, allowing users to automate tasks across multiple core services like Gmail, Drive, Sheets, and Calendar. This tool goes beyond simple scripting by offering structured diagnostics and pre-built recipes.

Capabilities

• System Diagnostics: Run gws_doctor for comprehensive pre-flight checks on installation, authentication status, and service connectivity.
• Guided Authentication: Utilize the auth_setup_guide script to walk users through secure OAuth setup, scope listing, and .env file generation.
• Recipe Execution: Access and run a catalog of 43 built-in recipes via the gws_recipe_runner, supporting persona-based filtering for targeted automation.
• Cross-Service Automation: Automate complex workflows that require interaction between different Google services (e.g., triggering a Sheet update from a Calendar event).

Example Use Cases

• Onboarding New Users: Automatically set up necessary permissions, create shared team drives, and configure initial email routing rules for new employees.
• Security Auditing: Run diagnostic checks to identify potential misconfigurations or outdated security protocols across the entire domain.
• Event Management: Build a workflow that automatically creates a Google Sheet summary, sends confirmation emails via Gmail, and adds necessary attendees to a Calendar event upon booking.
