Usage Guidance
This skill is a lightweight wrapper that calls the 'gws' CLI to convert an email into a task. Before installing or using it: (1) Inspect ../gws-shared/SKILL.md (or the artifacts produced by `gws generate-skills`) to see how authentication is performed, what tokens/credentials are required, and where they are stored; (2) Ensure the 'gws' binary is from a trusted source and understand its auth scopes (it may request access to Gmail and Tasks via OAuth); (3) Confirm you are comfortable with the CLI creating tasks on your behalf and that the skill will prompt for confirmation as the Tips suggest; (4) If you don't have access to the referenced gws-shared SKILL.md, treat the missing dependency as a risk — do not grant credentials until you inspect how they are used.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill Name: gws-workflow-email-to-task Version: 1.0.12 The skill bundle contains documentation (SKILL.md) and metadata (_meta.json) for a Google Workspace workflow that converts Gmail messages to Google Tasks using a 'gws' CLI tool. There is no executable code or suspicious instructions; the documentation follows standard patterns and includes a safety tip to confirm actions with the user.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description match the runtime instructions: the SKILL.md calls the gws CLI's workflow +email-to-task command and only requires the gws binary, which is appropriate for this purpose.
Instruction Scope
The file delegates authentication, global flags, and security rules to ../gws-shared/SKILL.md (or the output of `gws generate-skills`). That external artifact likely contains the actual auth instructions and potentially access to credentials; it's not present here, so you must inspect it to understand what data will be accessed or stored.
Install Mechanism
Instruction-only skill with no install spec or code files — it does not write files or download code itself. The only runtime requirement is the presence of the 'gws' binary.
Credentials
This skill declares no required env vars, but its declared prerequisite (gws-shared SKILL.md) is likely where auth is configured. That external config may require OAuth tokens or other credentials; confirm what credentials gws/gws-shared asks for and where they are stored.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill is not always-enabled and does not request persistent installation. It appears to operate only by invoking the gws CLI and therefore does not request elevated platform privileges in itself.
How to Use
  1. Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
  2. Run the install command in chat: /install gws-workflow-email-to-task
  3. After installation, invoke the skill by name or use /gws-workflow-email-to-task
  4. Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
