Google Chat

A lightweight way to interact with Google Chat without spinning up a full MCP server. Handles the basics well: list your spaces, send messages, read conversations, and manage DMs. The OAuth flow is straightforward and tokens live in your system keyring, which is the right approach. File attachments work too. One catch: you need a Google Workspace account, so personal Gmail users are out of luck. The command line interface is clean enough that you could probably wrap it in your own tooling if needed. Good choice if you want Google Chat integration without the overhead of the full Workspace server.

Google Chat

Lightweight Google Chat integration with standalone OAuth authentication. No MCP server required.

⚠️ Requires Google Workspace account. Personal Gmail accounts are not supported.

Everything is sent as the authenticated user, so treat write commands as outward-facing: confirm the exact text with the user before posting to a space, and never send to a channel the user did not name.

First-Time Setup

pip install -r requirements.txt
python scripts/auth.py login     # opens browser
python scripts/auth.py status    # verify
python scripts/auth.py logout

Commands

All operations via scripts/chat.py. Auto-authenticates on first use if not logged in.
