Can I use Google Drive as a CLI?

Yes. KosmoKrator exposes a Google Drive CLI through kosmo integrations:call and the provider shortcut command. Commands can return JSON for scripts, CI, and coding agents.

Can I expose Google Drive through MCP?

Yes. The KosmoKrator MCP gateway can expose selected Google Drive tools to clients such as Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and other MCP-compatible tools.

Where are Google Drive credentials stored?

Google Drive credentials are configured in KosmoKrator's local integration settings and reused by CLI, Lua, and MCP gateway surfaces.

Can I deny write access for Google Drive MCP tools?

Yes. Start the gateway with --write=deny for read-only clients, or use ask/allow only for trusted workspaces.

Google Drive CLI for Shell Scripts

Call integration functions from shell scripts with stable JSON input and output.

Use shell scripts for small local automations that need one or more integration calls. The Google Drive CLI uses the same integration registry as the TUI, Lua runtime, and MCP gateway, but returns predictable command output for automation.

Command Shape

# Google Drive CLI for Shell Scripts
kosmokrator integrations:configure google-drive --set access_token="$GOOGLE_DRIVE_ACCESS_TOKEN" --enable --read allow --write ask --json
kosmo integrations:call google-drive.gdrive_list_files '{"pageSize":1,"pageToken":"example_pageToken","q":"example_q","spaces":"example_spaces","trashed":true,"corpora":"example_corpora","fields":"example_fields"}' --json

Discovery Before Execution

Agents and scripts can inspect Google Drive docs and schemas before choosing a function.

kosmo integrations:docs google-drive --json
kosmo integrations:docs google-drive.gdrive_list_files --json
kosmo integrations:schema google-drive.gdrive_list_files --json
kosmo integrations:search "Google Drive" --json
kosmo integrations:list --json

Useful Google Drive CLI Functions

Function	Type	Parameters	Description
`google-drive.gdrive_list_files`	Read	pageSize, pageToken, q, spaces, trashed, corpora, fields	List files and folders in Google Drive. Supports search queries (q), pagination, spaces (drive, appDataFolder, photos), and trashed filtering.
`google-drive.gdrive_get_file`	Read	fileId, fields	Get metadata for a specific file or folder in Google Drive by its ID. Returns properties like name, mimeType, size, createdTime, modifiedTime, and parents.
`google-drive.gdrive_create_file`	Write	name, mimeType, parents, description	Create a new file in Google Drive. Creates the file metadata (name, mimeType, parent folder). For simple file creation without content upload, use uploadType "resumable" or "multipart" via the Google Drive API directly.
`google-drive.gdrive_create_folder`	Write	name, parentId	Create a new folder in Google Drive. Optionally specify a parent folder to nest it inside.
`google-drive.gdrive_list_changes`	Read	pageSize, pageToken, fields	List changes to files and folders in Google Drive. Use pageToken from the initial startPageToken to begin tracking, then pass the returned next page token for subsequent requests.
`google-drive.gdrive_get_current_user`	Read	fields	Get information about the authenticated Google Drive user, including display name, email address, and storage quota (usage, limit).

Automation Notes

Use --json for machine-readable output.
Keep credentials out of argv by using environment variables or stored KosmoKrator configuration.
Configure read/write policy before unattended runs; use --force only for trusted automation.
Use the MCP gateway instead when the agent needs dynamic tool discovery inside a conversation.
