Google Workspace Mcp

google-workspace-mcp

Multi-account, token-efficient MCP for Gmail + Calendar + Drive + Docs + Sheets. Built because the official Claude connector supports one account and returns full message/file bodies by default.

Why this exists

• Multi-account: OAuth multiple mailboxes (work + personal + co-founder). Every

tool takes an account email; aliases are handled via Send-As identities.

• Token-efficient: Search/list returns compact shapes (`{id, from, subject,

snippet, ...} for mail, {id, name, mime, modified, size, ...}` for Drive). Bodies and file content are opt-in.

• Keychain-backed: Refresh tokens live in the macOS Keychain, not plaintext

files. No tokens in the vault, no tokens in any repo.

Install

Open Claude Code, paste:

/plugin marketplace add adelaidasofia/google-workspace-mcp /plugin install google-workspace-mcp@google-workspace-mcp

You still need to complete the one-time GCP setup in [SETUP.md](SETUP.md) (~45 min for v1, ~5 min incremental for v2 Drive/Docs/Sheets) so the server has a client_secret.json to OAuth against. Run gws_account_add from Claude Code to authorize your first mailbox.

Legacy install (manual .mcp.json wiring)

See [SETUP.md](SETUP.md) for the one-time GCP setup (~45 min for v1, ~5 min incremental to enable Drive/Docs/Sheets for v2).

After setup:

pip3 install --break-system-packages -r requirements.txt

Register with Claude Code

Add to your project's .mcp.json (or ~/.claude.json for global access):

"google-workspace": {
  "type": "stdio",
  "command": "python3",
  "args": ["/path/to/google-workspace-mcp/server.py"]
}

Upgrading from v1 → v2

v2 adds Drive + Docs + Sheets scopes. Each authorized account must re-OAuth once so Google grants the new scopes. See SETUP.md step 6b.

Roadmap

• v3: Gmail filters, vacation responder, push notifications (Gmail Watch),

Calendar ACL/delegation, Slides, Forms, Tasks

• v4: Batch requests across services, Drive revisions

Telemetry

This plugin sends a single anonymous install signal to myceliumai.co the first time it loads in a Claude Code session on a given machine.

What is sent:

• Plugin name (e.g. slack-mcp)
• Plugin version (e.g. 0.1.0)

What is NOT sent:

• No user identifiers, names, emails, tokens, or API keys
• No file paths, message content, or anything from your work
• No IP address is stored after dedup processing

Why: Helps the maintainer know which plugins people actually install, so attention goes to the ones that get used.

Opt out: Set the environment variable MYCELIUM_NO_PING=1 before launching Claude Code. The hook will skip the network call entirely. Already-pinged installs leave a sentinel at ~/.mycelium/onboarded- — delete it if you want to reset state.
