Best use case
gws-forms is best used when you need a repeatable AI agent workflow instead of a one-off prompt.
Read and write Google Forms.
Teams using gws-forms should expect a more consistent output, faster repeated execution, less prompt rewriting.
When to use this skill
- You want a reusable workflow that can be run more than once with consistent structure.
When not to use this skill
- You only need a quick one-off answer and do not need a reusable workflow.

SKILL.md Source
# forms (v1) > **PREREQUISITE:** Read `../gws-shared/SKILL.md` for auth, global flags, and security rules. If missing, run `gws generate-skills` to create it. ```bash gws forms <resource> <method> [flags] ``` ## API Resources ### forms - `batchUpdate` — Change the form with a batch of updates. - `create` — Create a new form using the title given in the provided form message in the request. *Important:* Only the form.info.title and form.info.document_title fields are copied to the new form. All other fields including the form description, items and settings are disallowed. To create a new form and add items, you must first call forms.create to create an empty form with a title and (optional) document title, and then call forms.update to add the items. - `get` — Get a form. - `setPublishSettings` — Updates the publish settings of a form. Legacy forms aren't supported because they don't have the `publish_settings` field. - `responses` — Operations on the 'responses' resource - `watches` — Operations on the 'watches' resource ## Discovering Commands Before calling any API method, inspect it: ```bash # Browse resources and methods gws forms --help # Inspect a method's required params, types, and defaults gws schema forms.<resource>.<method> ``` Use `gws schema` output to build your `--params` and `--json` flags.

use-zod
Answer questions about the Zod schema validation library and help build schemas, parsers, refinements, transforms, codecs, and error formatters. Use when developers: (1) ask about Zod APIs like `z.object`, `z.string`, `z.array`, `z.union`, `z.discriminatedUnion`, `parse`, `safeParse`, `z.infer`; (2) define request/response/form schemas in TypeScript; (3) handle `ZodError` or customize error messages; (4) migrate between Zod v3 and v4 (entry-point split, `formatError` → `treeifyError`/`prettifyError`, unified `error` param replacing `message`/`errorMap`). Triggers on: "zod", "z.object", "z.string", "z.array", "z.union", "z.infer", "z.input", "z.output", "ZodError", "$ZodError", "safeParse", "parseAsync", "z.codec", "treeifyError", "prettifyError", "flattenError", "discriminatedUnion", "zod/v4", "zod/v3", "zod/mini", "z.coerce", "superRefine".
workflow
Creates durable, resumable workflows using Vercel's Workflow SDK. Use when building workflows that need to survive restarts, pause for external events, retry on failure, or coordinate multi-step operations over time. Triggers on mentions of "workflow", "durable functions", "resumable", "workflow sdk", "queue", "event", "push", "subscribe", or step-based orchestration.
