Google Docs CLI Setup

Google Docs can be configured headlessly with `kosmokrator integrations:configure google-docs`.

# Install KosmoKrator first if it is not available on PATH.
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OpenCompanyApp/kosmokrator/main/install.sh | bash

# Configure and verify this integration.
kosmokrator integrations:configure google-docs --set access_token="$GOOGLE_DOCS_ACCESS_TOKEN" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmokrator integrations:doctor google-docs --json
kosmokrator integrations:status --json

Credentials

Authentication type: Manual OAuth token oauth2_manual_token. Configure credentials once, then use the same stored profile from scripts, coding CLIs, Lua code mode, and the MCP gateway.

KeyEnv varTypeRequiredLabel
access_token GOOGLE_DOCS_ACCESS_TOKEN Secret secret yes Access Token

Call Google Docs Headlessly

Use the generic call form when another coding CLI or script needs a stable universal interface.

kosmo integrations:call google-docs.gdocs_list_documents '{
  "pageSize": 1,
  "pageToken": "example_pageToken",
  "q": "example_q"
}' --json

Use the provider shortcut form for shorter human-facing commands.

kosmo integrations:google-docs gdocs_list_documents '{
  "pageSize": 1,
  "pageToken": "example_pageToken",
  "q": "example_q"
}' --json

Agent Discovery Commands

These commands return structured output for coding agents that need to inspect capabilities before choosing a function. 

kosmo integrations:docs google-docs --json
kosmo integrations:docs google-docs.gdocs_list_documents --json
kosmo integrations:schema google-docs.gdocs_list_documents --json
kosmo integrations:search "Google Docs" --json
kosmo integrations:list --json
