Description
gws-people is an agent skill from the Google Workspace CLI project, listed on skills.sh. It manages Google Contacts and profiles through the People API. The page shows the contact group operations in detail: batchGet, which fetches several contact groups by name; create, which makes a new group; delete; get; list, which returns the groups without their members; and update, which renames a group. Group names must be unique for the user, and a duplicate returns an HTTP 409 error. The page advises sending mutating requests for the same user one after another to avoid latency and failures. The listing also says individual contacts can be created, updated and managed in batches, with support for photos, metadata and field-level control in updates. The skill relies on the shared gws authentication and security rules, which the agent reads first, and it can generate them if they are missing. It suits people who want an agent to tidy contact groups or update contacts in their Google account from the command line.…
