What it does

This is a role-playing persona for an AI agent, aimed at managing a Google Workspace organization from an IT administrator's point of view. Once installed, the agent is told to start the day with a standup report command, watch for suspicious login activity, review audit logs, and adjust Drive sharing rules to enforce security. It depends on other skills (Gmail, Drive, Calendar) and on the gws command-line tool to actually reach your Workspace data.

Great for

  • IT administrators who already use the gws command-line tool and want an agent to help with routine security checks
  • Developers building an internal admin assistant on top of Google Workspace
  • Teams that want a checklist-style starting point for Drive sharing policy reviews

Skip it if

  • People without Workspace admin rights: the commands will fail or need elevated permissions, and the file gives no guidance on scoping them
  • Production tenants without a dry-run review: the file says to use --dry-run before bulk operations, but the agent may still change sharing or account settings, so mistakes can affect many users
  • Anyone expecting detailed procedures: the SKILL.md is short and mostly high-level instructions, so the agent will need to infer the specifics

Try asking

  • “Run the standup report and list any pending IT requests”
  • “Review recent suspicious login activity and summarise what needs attention”
  • “Check Drive sharing settings and suggest changes to tighten external sharing”
  • “Verify my gws service account permissions and flag anything unusual”

    Ask for the task

    No special command needed — the agent reads the skill's description and loads it when your request matches. Try one of the prompts above.

Get better results

  • Run commands with --dry-run first and review the output before approving any bulk change
  • Check gws auth status regularly and keep service account scopes to the minimum needed
  • Install the three utility skills it depends on, or the persona will not work as intended
