Documentation

README

Add Gmail Integration

This skill adds Gmail support to ClaudeClaw — either as a tool (read, send, search, draft) or as a full channel that polls the inbox.

Phase 1: Pre-flight

Check if already applied

Check if src/channels/gmail.ts exists. If it does, skip to Phase 3 (Setup). The code changes are already in place.

Ask the user

Use AskUserQuestion:

AskUserQuestion: Should incoming emails be able to trigger the agent?

  • Yes — Full channel mode: the agent listens on Gmail and responds to incoming emails automatically
  • No — Tool-only: the agent gets full Gmail tools (read, send, search, draft) but won't monitor the inbox. No channel code is added.

Phase 2: Apply Code Changes

Ensure channel remote

git remote -v

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
