SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires requests, google-api-python-client, google-auth, and includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

It solves the problem of getting secure, direct access to your Google Calendar and Gmail without relying on third-party OAuth providers or intermediaries.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Direct OAuth for Google APIs: Connects to Google Calendar and Gmail using your own Google Cloud OAuth credentials.
  • Local credential storage: Saves OAuth artifacts on the Zo Computer at /home/.z/google-oauth/ for reuse by other Zo skills.
  • Token refresh daemon: Runs a background service that refreshes tokens every 4 hours so access stays reliable.

Use Case: When you need Zo to read recent emails and list events from your calendar using direct Google Calendar API and Gmail API access backed by long-lived refresh tokens.

Quick Start

Tell Zo: upload your Google OAuth client JSON credentials file and run the setup flow so it can authorize, store tokens locally, and start the refresh daemon.
