Description

Usage Guidance
Install only if you trust Maton to proxy Google Docs requests for the connected account. Keep MATON_API_KEY private, verify the selected connection and document ID before approving writes, and revoke OAuth connections you no longer use.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: google-docs
Version: 1.0.7
The google-docs skill provides a standard integration for managing Google Documents via the Maton API proxy service (api.maton.ai). It utilizes a managed OAuth flow and requires a MATON_API_KEY for authentication. The SKILL.md file contains legitimate API documentation, CLI usage examples, and code snippets (Python/JavaScript) for document creation and editing, and it explicitly instructs the AI agent to seek user approval before performing write operations.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The skill’s purpose is to read, create, and edit Google Docs via Maton-managed OAuth, which matches the documented API examples and metadata. The access is sensitive because it can expose or modify document content, but it is coherent with the stated purpose.
Instruction Scope
The instructions include read and write Google Docs operations, connection management, and examples for CLI, Python, and JavaScript. The artifact explicitly requires user approval before create, update, or delete calls and advises specifying a connection when multiple accounts exist.
Install Mechanism
The artifact contains only SKILL.md and no executable scripts or dependency package files. Installation content is user-directed documentation for the Maton CLI via npm or Homebrew, with manual API alternatives.
Credentials
Network access, MATON_API_KEY, and a Google OAuth connection are proportionate for a Google Docs integration. The docs clearly disclose that requests are routed through api.maton.ai before reaching Google Docs.
Persistence & Privilege
The skill supports persistent Maton OAuth connections and includes list, create, view, and delete connection workflows. This is expected for managed OAuth, but users should revoke unused connections and protect the API key.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install google-docs - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/google-docs - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
Version History
v1.0.7
- Added CLI command examples throughout the documentation for managing Google Docs and connections.
- Documented CLI installation methods (npm and Homebrew).
- Enhanced authentication instructions with dedicated CLI and manual setup sections.
- Provided equivalent CLI, Python, and API examples for all connection management actions.
- Included common CLI workflows for viewing, creating, and updating Google Docs.
- General documentation improvements for clarity and ease of use.
v1.0.6
- Updated all endpoint URLs from gateway.maton.ai and ctrl.maton.ai to api.maton.ai.
- Clarified connection management steps and emphasized use of the `Maton-Connection` header when multiple connections exist.
- Added section on security and permissions, requiring explicit user confirmation before write operations.
- Removed the LICENSE.txt file from the repository.
v1.0.5
- Added a new `clawdbot` metadata field with an emoji and required environment variable `MATON_API_KEY`.
- No other functionality or documentation changes.
v1.0.4
- Added a troubleshooting section for "Invalid App Name" errors, clarifying required URL structure.
- Updated the troubleshooting section for API key issues (previously titled "Invalid API Key") for clarity and accuracy.

- Updated all sample curl commands to use environment variable syntax ($MATON_API_KEY) for API keys.
- Added important usage notes about using curl with brackets (recommending curl -g) and handling environment variables when piping output to jq or other commands to prevent API key expansion issues.
v1.0.1
- Updated documentation to clarify that the base URL uses /google-docs/{native-api-path} and requires substitution of the API endpoint path.
- Added detailed sample response to the Get Connection section, including new fields (creation_time, last_updated_time, metadata).
