General * Multiple google accounts 2. Gmail * Get your Gmail user information * Query emails with flexible search (e.g., unread, from specific senders, date ranges, with attachments) * Retrieve complete email content by ID * Create new draft emails with recipients, subject, body and CC options * Delete draft emails * Reply to existing emails (can either send immediately or save as draft) * Retrieve multiple emails at once by their IDs. * Save multiple attachments from emails to your local system. 3. Calendar * Manage multiple calendars * Get calendar events within specified time ranges * Create calendar events with: + Title, start/end times + Optional location and description + Optional attendees + Custom timezone support + Notification preferences * Delete calendar events Example prompts you can try: * Retrieve my latest unread messages * Search my emails from the Scrum Master * Retrieve all emails from accounting * Take the email about ABC and summarize it * Write a nice response to Alice's last email and upload a draft. * Reply to Bob's email with a Thank you note. Store it as draft * What do I have on my agenda tomorrow? * Check my private account's Family agenda for next week * I need to plan an event with Tim for 2hrs next week. Suggest some time slots. ## Quickstart ### Install ### Installing via Smithery To install mcp-gsuite for Claude Desktop automatically via [Smithery](https://smithery.ai/server/mcp-gsuite): ```bash npx -y @smithery/cli install mcp-gsuite --client claude ``` #### Oauth 2 Google Workspace (G Suite) APIs require OAuth2 authorization. Follow these steps to set up authentication: 1. Create OAuth2 Credentials: - Go to the [Google Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com/) - Create a new project or select an existing one - Enable the Gmail API and Google Calendar API for your project - Go to "Credentials" → "Create Credentials" → "OAuth client ID" - Select "Desktop app" or "Web application" as the application type - Configure the OAuth consent screen with required information - Add authorized redirect URIs (include `http://localhost:4100/code` for local development) 2. Required OAuth2 Scopes: ```json [ "openid", "https://mail.google.com/", "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar", "https://www.googleapis.com/auth/userinfo.email" ] ``` 3. Then create a `.gauth.json` in your working directory with client ```json { "web": { "client_id": "$your_client_id", "client_secret": "$your_client_secret", "redirect_uris": ["http://localhost:4100/code"], "auth_uri": "https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth", "token_uri": "https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token" } } ``` 4. Create a `.accounts.json` file with account information ```json { "accounts": [ { "email": "alice@bob.com", "account_type": "personal", "extra_info": "Additional info that you want to tell Claude: E.g. 'Contains Family Calendar'" } ] } ``` You can specifiy multiple accounts. Make sure they have access in your Google Auth app. The `extra_info` field is especially interesting as you can add info here that you want to tell the AI about the account (e.g. whether it has a specific agenda) Note: When you first execute one of the tools for a specific account, a browser will open, redirect you to Google and ask for your credentials, scope, etc. After a successful login, it stores the credentials in a local file called `.oauth.{email}.json` . Once you are authorized, the refresh token will be used. #### Claude Desktop On MacOS: `~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` On Windows: `%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`

Development/Unpublished Servers Configuration

```json { "mcpServers": { "mcp-gsuite": { "command": "uv", "args": [ "--directory", "/mcp-gsuite", "run", "mcp-gsuite" ] } } } ``` Note: You can also use the `uv run mcp-gsuite --accounts-file /path/to/custom/.accounts.json` to specify a different accounts file or `--credentials-dir /path/to/custom/credentials` to specify a different credentials directory. ```json { "mcpServers": { "mcp-gsuite": { "command": "uv", "args": [ "--directory", "/mcp-gsuite", "run", "mcp-gsuite", "--accounts-file", "/path/to/custom/.accounts.json", "--credentials-dir", "/path/to/custom/credentials" ] } } } ```

Published Servers Configuration

```json { "mcpServers": { "mcp-gsuite": { "command": "uvx", "args": [ "mcp-gsuite", "--accounts-file", "/path/to/custom/.accounts.json", "--credentials-dir", "/path/to/custom/credentials" ] } } } ```

### Configuration Options The MCP server can be configured with several command-line options to specify custom paths for authentication and account information: * `--gauth-file`: Specifies the path to the `.gauth.json` file containing OAuth2 client configuration. Default is `./.gauth.json`. * `--accounts-file`: Specifies the path to the `.accounts.json` file containing information about the Google accounts. Default is `./.accounts.json`. * `--credentials-dir`: Specifies the directory where OAuth credentials are stored after successful authentication. Default is the current working directory with a subdirectory for each account as `.oauth.{email}.json`. These options allow for flexibility in managing different environments or multiple sets of credentials and accounts, especially useful in development and testing scenarios. Example usage: ```bash uv run mcp-gsuite --gauth-file /path/to/custom/.gauth.json --accounts-file /path/to/custom/.accounts.json --credentials-dir /path/to/custom/credentials ``` This configuration is particularly useful when you have multiple instances of the server running with different configurations or when deploying to environments where the default paths are not suitable. ## Development ### Building and Publishing To prepare the package for distribution: 1. Sync dependencies and update lockfile: ```bash uv sync ``` 2. Build package distributions: ```bash uv build ``` This will create source and wheel distributions in the `dist/` directory. 3. Publish to PyPI: ```bash uv publish ``` Note: You'll need to set PyPI credentials via environment variables or command flags: * Token: `--token` or `UV_PUBLISH_TOKEN` * Or username/password: `--username`/`UV_PUBLISH_USERNAME` and `--password`/`UV_PUBLISH_PASSWORD` ### Debugging Since MCP servers run over stdio, debugging can be challenging. For the best debugging experience, we strongly recommend using the [MCP Inspector](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector). You can launch the MCP Inspector via [ `npm` ](https://docs.npmjs.com/downloading-and-installing-node-js-and-npm) with this command: ```bash npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector uv --directory /path/to/mcp-gsuite run mcp-gsuite ``` Upon launching, the Inspector will display a URL that you can access in your browser to begin debugging. You can also watch the server logs with this command: ```bash tail -n 20 -f ~/Library/Logs/Claude/mcp-server-mcp-gsuite.log ```
