Discovering Commands
Before calling any API method, inspect it:
# Browse resources and methods
gws workflow --help
# Inspect a method's required params, types, and defaults
gws schema workflow.\x3Cresource>.\x3Cmethod>
Use gws schema output to build your --params and --json flags.
Usage Guidance
This skill appears to be a thin wrapper around a 'gws' CLI which is reasonable for Google Workflow tasks, but it defers authentication and security rules to a separate ../gws-shared/SKILL.md that is not included or declared. Before installing or enabling this skill: 1) Inspect the referenced ../gws-shared/SKILL.md to see exactly what credentials, files, or config it reads/creates and where (tokens, OAuth creds, config files). 2) Verify the provenance and behavior of the 'gws' CLI you will run (is it an official Google-provided tool or third-party?). 3) If the shared SKILL would create credentials/config via `gws generate-skills`, review what that generator writes and its permissions. 4) Avoid enabling the skill until you confirm which Google credentials are required and that they are limited to the minimum scopes needed. The missing declaration of authentication/config requirements is the main coherence gap here.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: gws-workflow
Version: 1.0.12
The gws-workflow skill bundle is a documentation-only wrapper for a Google Workspace CLI tool (gws). It provides instructions for an AI agent to execute productivity workflows such as standup reports and meeting preparation. No executable code, malicious prompt injection, or data exfiltration patterns were identified in SKILL.md or _meta.json.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
Name/description (Google Workflow cross-service workflows) align with requiring a 'gws' CLI binary. Requesting the gws executable is plausible and proportionate. However, the skill refers to a ../gws-shared/SKILL.md for auth and security rules but does not declare any credentials or config paths itself — this is an implicit dependency that is not represented in the metadata.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md instructs the agent to read a sibling shared SKILL.md for auth and to run `gws generate-skills` if missing. That directs the agent to read/write files outside this skill's folder and to execute a generator command that may create configuration or credentials. The instructions themselves do not enumerate what auth or files will be accessed/created, giving the skill broad, implicit scope beyond the declared single binary requirement.
Install Mechanism
This is an instruction-only skill with no install spec and no bundled code — low surface area. It relies on an external 'gws' binary being present; no downloads or extracts are requested by the skill itself.
Credentials
No environment variables or primary credential are declared, yet the skill explicitly defers auth and security rules to a separate ../gws-shared/SKILL.md. That suggests this skill will rely on credentials or config provided elsewhere (likely Google Workspace credentials or tokens), but those are not declared here, creating an incomplete and potentially misleading permission picture.
Persistence & Privilege
always is false and there is no install script or code that requests persistent presence or modifies other skills. The main persistence risk arises indirectly from the referenced generator (`gws generate-skills`) which could create files/configs, but that action is not defined in this SKILL.md.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install gws-workflow - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/gws-workflow - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
