Google Drive Search Files

Atomic node skill to search for files in Google Drive using the gog CLI.

Security Scan

The skill is internally consistent: it simply instructs the agent to run the local 'gog' CLI to search Google Drive and does not request unrelated credentials, installs, or system modifications.

Purpose & Capability

Name, description, required binary ('gog') and the runtime instruction ('gog drive search "query" --json') all align. The declared requirements are exactly what the skill needs to perform the stated task.

Instruction Scope

SKILL.md only tells the agent to run a single gog command and return JSON results. It does not instruct reading other files, environment variables, or sending results to external endpoints. Note: the command will run using the local gog CLI and therefore will operate under whatever authentication and permissions that CLI is configured with on the host.

Install Mechanism

This is an instruction-only skill with no install spec and no code files, so nothing is written to disk or downloaded by the skill itself.

Credentials

The skill requests no environment variables or credentials directly, which is proportionate. However, it implicitly relies on the local gog CLI being installed and authenticated; that CLI may use stored tokens or config files under the user's account. Users should be aware the skill will act with the permissions already granted to the local gog installation.

Persistence & Privilege

always is false, it is user-invocable, and it does not request modification of agent or system configuration. It does not ask for persistent presence or elevated privileges.

Assessment

This skill runs your local 'gog' CLI to search Google Drive. Before installing or using it, make sure: (1) the 'gog' binary on the system is from a trusted source and is the one you expect; (2) 'gog' is authenticated to the correct Google account and has only the intended Drive permissions; (3) you are comfortable with an agent executing a local CLI command (results returned may include sensitive filenames or metadata); and (4) if you want to limit risk, run it only when invoked manually (avoid giving the agent broad autonomous rights) or test it in an environment with limited Drive access.

Lean Philosophy (Principles)

• Kaizen (改善): This skill is an atomic node, broken down into its simplest, smallest component to eliminate waste and ensure perfection.
• Standardized Work (Hyojun Sagyo): This node represents the most efficient, standardized path for this specific task before automation.
• Jidoka (自働化): This node includes autonomous defect detection. It relies on the CLI's self-healing loop and will report errors if the search fails.

This skill allows the agent to search for files across Google Drive using the native CLI.

Cognitive Directives

WHEN [A file or folder needs to be located in Google Drive] THEN [Execute the native terminal command gog drive search "query" --json]

Schema Example

{
  "command": "gog drive search \"project proposal\" --json"
}

Expected Output

A JSON array of file objects matching the search criteria.
