What This Skill Does

Manages Google Chat spaces, messages, memberships, and media through the `gws` CLI. Covers creating and configuring spaces, sending messages, handling attachments, and administering custom emojis across a Google Workspace organization.

Scripting Chat space setup and message delivery from the CLI removes the need to click through the Google Chat UI repeatedly when onboarding teams or automating notifications.

When to use it

  • Creating a new Chat space and adding team members in one command
  • Finding an existing direct message thread with a specific user by email
  • Searching all organization spaces as an admin to audit or clean up inactive ones
  • Uploading a file attachment to a Chat space message
  • Listing all spaces a service account or user belongs to
