Description
Subscribe to change notifications on a Google Drive file or folder.
Usage Guidance
This recipe simply runs gws CLI commands to create/list/renew Google Drive change subscriptions and publish notifications to a Pub/Sub topic, which is coherent with its description. However, the SKILL.md does not declare how Google authentication or Pub/Sub permissions are supplied. Before installing or enabling this skill: (1) confirm what the gws and gws-events skills do and how they obtain/store Google credentials (service account key, gcloud auth, etc.); (2) ensure any credentials used follow least-privilege (only permit creating/listing/renewing subscriptions and publishing to the specific Pub/Sub topic); (3) verify the Pub/Sub topic and GCP project are correct and you control them; and (4) avoid providing broad or long-lived credentials unless you trust the gws/gws-events tools and their source. If the author can document how authentication is handled (and limit required permissions), the inconsistency would be resolved and the risk lowered.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: recipe-watch-drive-changes
Version: 1.0.12
The skill bundle provides a recipe for monitoring Google Drive changes using the 'gws' CLI tool. The instructions in SKILL.md describe standard administrative tasks such as creating, listing, and renewing event subscriptions via Google Cloud Pub/Sub, with no evidence of malicious intent, data exfiltration, or prompt injection.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name and description match the runtime instructions: all steps are gws CLI calls to create, list, and renew Drive change subscriptions.
Instruction Scope
Instructions are narrowly scoped to gws CLI operations for creating/listing/renewing subscriptions and do not ask the agent to read unrelated files, environment variables, or transmit data to unexpected endpoints.
Install Mechanism
This is an instruction-only skill with no install spec or downloaded code (lowest install risk). It requires the gws binary to be present.
Credentials
The SKILL.md issues gws commands that will require Google credentials (service account or user OAuth) and Pub/Sub permissions, but the skill declares no required environment variables or primary credential. It also depends on the external 'gws-events' skill for execution context; the relationship is not explained. This omission is an inconsistency: the skill will need authenticated access at runtime but does not declare or document how credentials are provided or scoped.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill does not request always:true and does not modify other skills or system configuration. It appears to be user-invocable only.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install recipe-watch-drive-changes - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/recipe-watch-drive-changes - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
