# Claw — Google Workspace for AI Agents

Use `claw` for Gmail, Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides, Calendar, and Forms via your @clawemail.com account.

## Setup

1. Save your ClawEmail credentials JSON to `~/.config/clawemail/credentials.json`
2. Set the environment variable: `export CLAWEMAIL_CREDENTIALS=~/.config/clawemail/credentials.json`

Get credentials at https://clawemail.com — sign up, then visit `/connect/YOUR_PREFIX` to authorize OAuth.

## Getting an Access Token

All API calls need a Bearer token. Use the helper script to refresh and cache it:

```bash
TOKEN=$(~/.openclaw/skills/claw/scripts/token.sh)
```

The script caches tokens for 50 minutes. Always assign to `TOKEN` before making API calls.

## Gmail

### Search emails

```bash
TOKEN=$(~/.openclaw/skills/claw/scripts/token.sh)
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  "https://gmail.googleapis.com/gmail/v1/users/me/messages?q=newer_than:7d&maxResults=10" | python3 -m json.tool
```

Common query operators: `from:`, `to:`, `subject:`, `newer_than:`, `older_than:`, `is:unread`, `has:attachment`, `label:`, `in:inbox`.

### Read a message

```bash
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  "https://gmail.googleapis.com/gmail/v1/users/me/messages/MESSAGE_ID?format=full" | python3 -m json.tool
```

For plain text body only, use `format=minimal` and decode the payload. For readable output:

```bash
curl -s -H "Authorization: Bearer $TOKEN" \
  "https://gmail.googleapis.com/gmail/v1/users/me/messages/MESSAGE_ID?format=full" \
  | python3 -c "
import json,sys,base64
m=json.load(sys.stdin)
hdrs={h['name']:h['value'] for h in m['payload']['headers']}
print(f\"From: {hdrs.get('From','')}\nTo: {hdrs.get('To','')}\nSubject: {hdrs.get('Subject','')}\nDate: {hdrs.get('Date','')}\n\")
def get_body(part):
    if part.get('body',{}).get('data'):
        return base64.urlsafe_b64decode(part['body']['data']).decode('utf-8','replace')
    for p in part.get('parts',[]):
        if p['mimeType']=='text/plain': return...
