SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Manually creating repeating meetings in Google Calendar is repetitive and error-prone, especially when setting recurrence rules and inviting attendees. This Skill automates the creation of recurring calendar events through a single command. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Recurring Event Creation: Inserts a Google Calendar event with an RRULE recurrence pattern such as weekly meetings on specific weekdays. - Attendee Management: Adds attendee email addresses directly to the event at creation time. - Verification Step: Confirms the event was created by listing upcoming agenda items for the next 14 days. - Use Case: Set up a weekly team standup every Monday at 9:00 AM Eastern Time with the whole team invited, then verify it appears on the calendar. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to create a recurring weekly Google Calendar event with attendees and verify it appears on the agenda.
