# Google Workspace Access (No Cloud Console!)

**Why this skill?** Traditional Google API access requires creating a project in Google Cloud Console, enabling APIs, creating OAuth credentials, and downloading client_secret.json. This skill skips ALL of that.

Uses `@presto-ai/google-workspace-mcp` — just sign in with your Google account and go.

## Key Advantage

| Traditional Approach | This Skill |
|---------------------|------------|
| Create Google Cloud Project | ❌ Not needed |
| Enable individual APIs | ❌ Not needed |
| Create OAuth credentials | ❌ Not needed |
| Download client_secret.json | ❌ Not needed |
| Configure redirect URIs | ❌ Not needed |
| **Just sign in with Google** | ✅ That's it |

## Setup (Already Done)

```bash
npm install -g @presto-ai/google-workspace-mcp
mcporter config add google-workspace --command "npx" --arg "-y" --arg "@presto-ai/google-workspace-mcp" --scope home
```

On first use, it opens a browser for Google OAuth. Credentials stored in `~/.config/google-workspace-mcp/`
