Recipe Share Doc And Notify
googleworkspace/cliOfficial
The recipe-share-doc-and-notify skill automates the process of sharing Google Docs documents with collaborators by finding a specific document, granting editor access to specified users, and sending them an email notification with the document link. It targets Google Workspace users who need to quickly distribute documents for collaborative review without manually managing permissions and sending separate emails. The skill solves the inefficiency of juggling multiple Google Workspace services to share documents and notify recipients.
