Access Google Drive via CLI with 1Password OAuth. Use when user wants to list files, download from Drive, sync folders, or mentions google drive access. TRIGGERS - google drive, gdrive, drive folder, download drive, sync drive, list drive files.

Google Drive Access

List, download, and sync files from Google Drive programmatically via Claude Code.

MANDATORY PREFLIGHT (Execute Before Any Drive Operation)

CRITICAL: You MUST complete this preflight checklist before running any gdrive commands. Do NOT skip steps.

Step 1: Check CLI Binary Exists

ls -la "$HOME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/cc-skills/plugins/gdrive-tools/skills/gdrive-access/scripts/gdrive" 2>/dev/null || echo "BINARY_NOT_FOUND"

If BINARY_NOT_FOUND: Build it first:

cd ~/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/cc-skills/plugins/gdrive-tools/skills/gdrive-access/scripts && bun install && bun run build

Step 2: Check GDRIVE_OP_UUID Environment Variable

echo "GDRIVE_OP_UUID: ${GDRIVE_OP_UUID:-NOT_SET}"

If NOT_SET: You MUST run the Setup Flow below. Do NOT proceed to gdrive commands.

Step 3: Verify 1Password Authentication

op account list 2>&1 | head -3

If error or not signed in: Inform user to run op signin first.


Setup Flow (When GDRIVE_OP_UUID is NOT_SET)

Follow these steps IN ORDER. Use AskUserQuestion at decision points.

Setup Step 1: Check 1Password CLI

command -v op && echo "OP_CLI_INSTALLED" || echo "OP_CLI_MISSING"

If OP_CLI_MISSING: Stop and inform user:

1Password CLI is required. Install with: brew install 1password-cli

Setup Step 2: Discover Drive OAuth Items in 1Password

op item list --vault Employee --format json 2>/dev/null | jq -r '.[] | select(.title | test("drive|oauth|google"; "i")) | "\(.id)\t\(.title)"'

Parse the output and proceed based on results:

Setup Step 3: User Selects OAuth Credentials

If items found, use AskUserQuestion with discovered items:

AskUserQuestion({
  questions: [{
    question: "Which 1Password item contains your Google Drive OAuth credentials?",
    header: "Drive OAuth",
    options: [
      // POPULATE FROM op item list RESULTS - example:
      { label: "Google Drive API (56peh...)", description: "OAuth client in Employee vault" },
      { label: "Gmail API - dental-quizzes (abc12...)", description: "Can also access Drive" },
    ],
    multiSelect: false
  }]
})

If NO items found, use AskUserQuestion to guide setup:

AskUserQuestion({
  questions: [{
    question: "No Google Drive OAuth credentials found in 1Password. How would you like to proceed?",
    header: "Setup",
    options: [
      { label: "Create new OAuth credentials (Recommended)", description: "I'll guide you through Google Cloud Console setup" },
      { label: "I have credentials elsewhere", description: "Help me add them to 1Password" },
      { label: "Skip for now", description: "I'll set this up later" }
    ],
    multiSelect: false
  }]
})
  • If "Create new OAuth credentials": Read and present references/gdrive-api-setup.md
  • If "I have credentials elsewhere": Guide user to add to 1Password with required fields
  • If "Skip for now": Inform user the skill won't work until configured

Setup Step 4: Confirm mise Configuration

After user selects an item (with UUID), use AskUserQuestion:

AskUserQuestion({
  questions: [{
    question: "Add GDRIVE_OP_UUID to .mise.local.toml in current project?",
    header: "Configure",
    options: [
      { label: "Yes, add to .mise.local.toml (Recommended)", description: "Creates/updates gitignored config file" },
      { label: "Show me the config only", description: "I'll add it manually" }
    ],
    multiSelect: false
  }]
})

If "Yes, add to .mise.local.toml":

  1. Check if .mise.local.toml exists
  2. If exists, append GDRIVE_OP_UUID to [env] section
  3. If not exists, create with:
[env]
GDRIVE_OP_UUID = "<selected-uuid>"
  1. Verify .mise.local.toml is in .gitignore

If "Show me the config only": Output the TOML for user to add manually.

Setup Step 5: Reload and Verify

mise trust 2>/dev/null || true
cd . && echo "GDRIVE_OP_UUID after reload: ${GDRIVE_OP_UUID:-NOT_SET}"

If still NOT_SET: Inform user to restart their shell or run source ~/.zshrc.

Setup Step 6: Test Connection

GDRIVE_OP_UUID="${GDRIVE_OP_UUID}" $HOME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/cc-skills/plugins/gdrive-tools/skills/gdrive-access/scripts/gdrive list 1wqqqvBmeUFYuwOOEQhzoChC7KzAk-mAS

If OAuth prompt appears: This is expected on first run. Browser will open for Google consent.


Drive Commands (Only After Preflight Passes)

GDRIVE_CLI="$HOME/.claude/plugins/marketplaces/cc-skills/plugins/gdrive-tools/skills/gdrive-access/scripts/gdrive"

# List files in a folder
$GDRIVE_CLI list <folder_id>

# List with details (size, modified date)
$GDRIVE_CLI list <folder_id> --verbose

# Search for files
$GDRIVE_CLI search "name contains 'training'"

# Get file info
$GDRIVE_CLI info <file_id>

# Download a single file
$GDRIVE_CLI download <file_id> -o ./output.pdf

# Sync entire folder to local directory
$GDRIVE_CLI sync <folder_id> -o ./output_dir

# Sync with subfolders
$GDRIVE_CLI sync <folder_id> -o ./output_dir -r

# JSON output (for parsing)
$GDRIVE_CLI list <folder_id> --json

Extracting Folder ID from URL

Google Drive folder URL:

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1wqqqvBmeUFYuwOOEQhzoChC7KzAk-mAS
                                       ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
                                       This is the folder ID
