Gws Workflow File Announce
PassAudited by ClawScan on May 1, 2026.
Overview
This skill is a coherent Google Workspace helper that posts a Drive-file announcement to a Chat space, with the main things to review being the target space, file ID, and Google account permissions.
Before installing or using it, make sure the `gws` CLI is trusted and authenticated to the right Google Workspace account. Treat the command as a real Chat posting action: check the Drive file ID, Chat space, and message content before allowing it to run.

Artifact-based informational review of SKILL.md, metadata, install specs, static scan signals, and capability signals. ClawScan does not execute the skill or run runtime probes.
If invoked with the wrong space, file, or message, it could post an unintended announcement to a shared Chat space.
The skill explicitly performs a workspace write action by posting to a Google Chat space. This is aligned with the skill purpose, but users should verify the destination and content before sending.
- This is a write command — sends a Chat message.
Confirm the `--file-id`, `--space`, and optional `--message` before running or allowing an agent to run the command.
The command may read the Drive file name and post to Chat using the authenticated Google Workspace account.
The workflow relies on Google Workspace authentication and will act under the user’s available Drive and Chat permissions. This is expected for the stated purpose, but the registry metadata does not declare a primary credential.
> **PREREQUISITE:** Read `../gws-shared/SKILL.md` for auth, global flags, and security rules.
Use an account with appropriate, least-necessary Google Workspace access and review the shared auth instructions before use.
The actual Google Workspace operation depends on the installed `gws` binary and its shared auth configuration.
The skill is instruction-only and delegates execution to the external `gws` CLI. This is central to the skill’s purpose, but users should ensure the CLI and referenced shared skill come from a trusted source.
