Gws Workflow File Announce
googleworkspace/cliOfficial
The gws-workflow-file-announce skill enables users to post announcements about Google Drive files directly to Google Chat spaces from the command line. It accepts a Drive file ID and Chat space identifier, retrieves the file metadata, and sends a formatted message to the specified space with optional custom text. This skill serves Google Workspace CLI users who need to quickly share and announce files across their organization without leaving the terminal.
