Gws Sheets Append
A straightforward wrapper around Google Sheets' append API that handles both single rows and bulk inserts. You pass comma-separated values for quick additions or JSON arrays when you need to dump multiple rows at once. The range flag lets you target specific sheet tabs, which is handy when working with multi-tab spreadsheets. It's a write command so Claude will confirm before executing, which prevents accidental data insertion. The tool assumes you've already set up authentication through the gws shared components. Most useful for logging data, building simple dashboards, or automating report generation where you need to continuously add structured data to existing sheets.

--json-values | — | — | JSON array of rows, e.g. '[["a","b"],["c","d"]]' |
