| `folder_id` | Folder ID for `list` command | required |
| `--parent` | Parent folder ID for `create-folder` | root |
| `--folder` | Target folder ID for `upload` / `search` / `create-doc` | none |

## Examples

### List all client folders

```bash
cd $GOOGLE_TOOLS_PATH && python3 drive_manager.py list <YOUR_CLIENTS_FOLDER_ID>
```

### Create a new client folder

```bash
cd $GOOGLE_TOOLS_PATH && python3 drive_manager.py create-folder "Acme Corp" --parent <YOUR_CLIENTS_FOLDER_ID>
```

### Upload invoice to client folder

```bash
cd $GOOGLE_TOOLS_PATH && python3 drive_manager.py upload ~/invoices/inv-100.pdf --folder CLIENT_FOLDER_ID --name "Invoice #100.pdf"

cd $GOOGLE_TOOLS_PATH && python3 drive_manager.py search "proposal" --folder <YOUR_CLIENTS_FOLDER_ID>
```

## Output Format

All commands output JSON array. Each entry has:
- `id` — Google Drive file ID
- `name` — file/folder name
- `mimeType` — MIME type (`application/vnd.google-apps.folder` for folders)
- `webViewLink` — direct link to open in browser

## Limitations

- Scopes: uses `drive.readonly` (list/search) + `drive.file` (create/upload/share). Cannot modify files not created by this app.
- Upload: single file at a time. For bulk uploads, loop in bash.
- Search: name-based only. Use Google Drive web UI for full-text content search.
- Sharing: can only share files created by this app (drive.file scope). Cannot share files created elsewhere.
- Create-doc: uses Drive API upload with HTML conversion (no Docs API needed). Formatting via HTML.

## Troubleshooting

| Problem | Solution |
|---------|----------|
| `token.json` expired | Run `google-auth` skill to refresh |
| 403 insufficient permissions | Check scopes in `google_scopes.py`, may need to re-auth |
| File not found on upload | Use absolute path or `~` expansion |
| Empty list result | Verify folder ID is correct, check trashed status |
