Google Chat: Send a message to a space.
— the description by Google Workspace

AutoGineer summary

Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author

The gws-chat-send skill provides a direct interface for sending plain text messages to specific Google Chat spaces. It is designed to be used within the gws CLI environment, requiring users to specify the target space identifier and the message content. This tool is intended for simple, automated communication tasks where plain text notifications or updates are required.

What it does

  • Sends plain text messages to a designated Google Chat space.
  • Requires a valid space identifier for message delivery.
  • Integrates with the gws CLI framework for authentication and configuration.

When to use it

  • When you need to send automated status updates or notifications to a Google Chat space.
  • When working within a terminal environment that requires CLI-based communication tools.
  • When you have the necessary space identifiers and authentication configured via gws.

Advantages

  • Simplifies sending messages to Google Chat directly from the command line.
  • Provides a lightweight method for integrating chat notifications into automated workflows.
  • Consistent with other gws CLI tools for streamlined operations.

Usage examples

“Send a message to the team space saying 'Hello team!'”
The agent executes the gws chat +send command with the specified space ID and text, delivering the message to the target Google Chat space.
