Provide the summary grouped by card, sorted by expiring soonest, with the promos that need action separated from the ones already live.\n- Flag anything that costs money, such as a promo requiring a jump in spending, a balance transfer with a transfer fee, a promo APR that reverts, or a credit that only applies to a plan the user does not have.\n\n## Activating promos\n\n- Offer relevant accounts to log in to activate for the user in browser\n- Activate directly in the issuer's own account or app rather than any third-party aggregator or emailed link.\n- Read the terms before activating: enrollment deadline, spend window, whether the card must be used at checkout (not a wallet or a gift card), whether online and in-store both count, exclusions on third-party delivery apps, and whether activation is per-card rather than per-account.\n- Where activation is one tap per offer, activate every relevant one in a single pass and count them, since issuers frequently cap how many can be active. Where there are limits, prioritize any merchants that the user has previously purchased from, and comparable products and services.\n- For quarterly bonus categories, activate for the current quarter and note the date the next quarter opens.\n- Activate free offers, but never accept a promotional APR, balance transfer, plan enrollment, paid upgrade, or product change without explicit confirmation.\n- Never open a new card, request a credit line change, or take a cash advance on the user's behalf.\n- Treat anything that affects the user's credit report or interest rate as a decision for them, and present the numbers rather than a recommendation to act.\n\n## After activation\n\n- Report what was activated per card: promo, reward, spend needed, deadline, and the total value now sitting available.\n- Create a scheduled task a few days before each spend deadline to check whether the spend condition has been met, and report only when something is still unearned and still winnable.\n- Create a scheduled task for the day a statement credit resets or a quarterly category window opens, to activate the next round.\n- If the user stops responding mid-flow, follow up in 24 hours, and sooner if an activation deadline is closer than that.\n\nFollow these instructions as your guide. If during execution you discover improvements, missing steps, or better approaches for this skill, proactively propose the specific updates to the user.

No manual login or service-account setup is needed, and the value in that variable is never a credential.\n\n```json\n{\n \"command\": \"gws gmail users messages list --params '{\\\"userId\\\": \\\"me\\\", \\\"maxResults\\\": 5}'\",\n \"credentials\": [{ \"provider\": \"google\", \"email\": \"user@example.com\" }]\n}\n```\n\n## Multiple Google Accounts\n\nWhen the user has more than one Google account connected, pass the target email in\n`credentials` on the `shell` tool call. That resolves the correct OAuth token via a\nlive database lookup:\n\n```json\n{ \"credentials\": [{ \"provider\": \"google\", \"email\": \"work@example.com\" }] }\n```\n\n`gws` has no `--account` flag. The injected token determines the account, so do\nnot add a second account selector to the command.\n\n## Global Flags\n\n| Flag | Description |\n| ----------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |\n| `--format <FORMAT>` | Output format: `json` (default), `table`, `yaml`, `csv` |\n| `--dry-run` | Validate raw API requests locally; helper behavior varies |\n| `--sanitize <TEMPLATE>` | Screen responses through Model Armor |\n\n## CLI Syntax\n\n```bash\ngws <service> <resource> [sub-resource ...] <method> [flags]\n```\n\nWhen a JSON string value contains apostrophes, such as a Drive `q` expression,\nuse a double-quoted shell argument and escape the JSON double quotes. Do not put\nthe whole JSON object in single shell quotes, because the apostrophes would end\nthat argument early:\n\n```bash\ngws drive files list --params \"{\\\"q\\\":\\\"name contains 'Project Brief' and trashed=false\\\"}\"\n```\n\n### Method Flags\n\n| Flag | Description |\n| --------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- |\n| `--params '{\"key\": \"val\"}'` | URL/query parameters |\n| `--json '{\"key\": \"val\"}'` | Request body |\n| `-o, --output <PATH>` | Save binary responses to file |\n| `--upload <PATH>` | Upload file content (multipart) |\n| `--page-all` | Auto-paginate (NDJSON output) |\n| `--page-limit <N>` | Max pages when using --page-all (default: 10) |\n| `--page-delay <MS>` | Delay between pages in ms (default: 100) |\n\n## Composing Calls (capture-then-use, for writes/sends)\n\nWhen the **second** call is a write or send — `documents.batchUpdate`, `spreadsheets.batchUpdate`, `events.insert/update/patch`, `messages.send`, `files.create/update/delete`, etc. — and it depends on a value returned by an earlier call, run them as **two separate shell tool invocations**, not bundled in one bash block.\n\n1. First shell call: run the lookup, read its stdout in your reasoning.\n2. Second shell call: pass the literal value into the write/send flag.\n\n**Don't** do this in one shell call:\n\n```bash\nDOC_ID=$(gws docs documents create --json '{\"title\":\"x\"}' | jq -r .documentId)\ngws docs documents batchUpdate --params \"{\\\"documentId\\\":\\\"$DOC_ID\\\"}\" --json '...'\n```\n\n**Do this** (two separate shell tool calls):\n\n```bash\n# call 1\ngws docs documents create --json '{\"title\":\"x\"}'\n# (reasoning step: read the documentId from stdout, e.g. \"1AbCdEfGh...\")\n# call 2\ngws docs documents batchUpdate --params '{\"documentId\":\"1AbCdEfGh...\"}' --json '...'\n```\n\n## Rules\n\n- **Never** output secrets (API keys, tokens) directly\n- Prefer `--dry-run` for raw API writes. Before dry-running a helper, inspect its\n skill and `--help`: helpers may authenticate or perform setup first, and\n `gmail +watch` is explicitly unsafe to dry-run.\n- Use `--sanitize` for PII/content safety screening\n- Inspect failures and try alternate reads, filters, or resources when safe. Never\n repeat a write or send after an ambiguous outcome; verify whether it succeeded first.\n- **Be proactive, not inquisitive.** Gather context yourself before asking the user. Propose concrete actions rather than asking open-ended questions.\n\n---\n\n# Availability — Shared Reference\n\n## Read the calendar before you state availability\n\nOffering, confirming, or declining a time on the user's behalf is a claim about\ntheir calendar. Read the calendar before writing that claim — not afterwards,\nand not only when you are creating the event.\n\nThis applies to outbound content, not just event creation:\n\n- a reply that offers windows (\"I have Tuesday 10–12 open\")\n- a message that accepts or declines a time someone else proposed\n- a summary that tells the user when they are free\n\nWriting any of these without a calendar read is a guess, and it reaches the\nrecipient as a commitment.\n\n## Reading it\n\n```bash\n# The user's own day. --today / --tomorrow / --week / --days N — there is no --date.\ngws calendar +agenda --tomorrow\n\n# An arbitrary window. Note the resource path is `events`, with no `users` prefix.\ngws calendar events list --params '{\"calendarId\":\"primary\",\"timeMin\":\"2026-08-11T00:00:00-07:00\",\"timeMax\":\"2026-08-12T00:00:00-07:00\",\"singleEvents\":true,\"orderBy\":\"startTime\"}'\n\n# Other attendees, before proposing a slot to them.\ngws calendar freebusy query --json '{\"timeMin\":\"2026-08-11T15:00:00Z\",\"timeMax\":\"2026-08-12T01:00:00Z\",\"items\":[{\"id\":\"someone@example.com\"}]}'\n```\n\nThen offer only the times you actually saw free. If the calendar call fails,\nsay so and ask the user — do not fall back to a guessed window.\n\n## See Also\n\n- [gws-calendar](../gws-calendar/SKILL.md) — full calendar API surface\n- [gws-calendar-agenda](../gws-calendar-agenda/SKILL.md) — `+agenda` flags in full\n- [recipe-find-free-time](../recipe-find-free-time/SKILL.md) — free/busy across several people\n\n---\n\n# gmail (v1)\n\n```bash\ngws gmail users [sub-resource ...] <method> [flags]\n```\n\n## Helper Commands\n\n| Command | Description |\n| ----------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- |\n| [`+send`](../gws-gmail-send/SKILL.md) | Send an email immediately |\n| [draft](../gws-gmail-draft/SKILL.md) | Create a draft email — saved, not sent |\n| [`+triage`](../gws-gmail-triage/SKILL.md) | Show unread inbox summary (sender, subject, date) |\n| [`+reply`](../gws-gmail-reply/SKILL.md) | Reply to a message (handles threading automatically) |\n| [`+reply-all`](../gws-gmail-reply-all/SKILL.md) | Reply-all to a message (handles threading automatically) |\n| [`+forward`](../gws-gmail-forward/SKILL.md) | Forward a message to new recipients |\n| `+read` | Read a message and extract its body or headers |\n| `+watch` | Stream new messages using Gmail push notifications and Pub/Sub |\n\n`gws gmail +watch --dry-run` is unsafe in pinned `gws` v0.22.5: it attempts Gmail authentication and Pub/Sub topic setup before honoring `--dry-run`. Use `gws gmail +watch --help` for planning. Run `+watch` only when the user requests a live watch and approves the persistent Pub/Sub resources.\n\n## The user's signature\n\nGmail adds a signature in its own compose window, not on the server, so a message\nsent through `gws` — helper or raw API — arrives without the one the user set in\nGmail's settings. Read it once per conversation and put it on every message you\nsend, reply to, or draft on their behalf:\n\n```bash\ngws gmail users settings sendAs list --params '{\"userId\":\"me\"}'\n```\n\nTake `signature` (HTML) from the alias the mail goes out as: the entry whose\n`sendAsEmail` matches the account, otherwise the one with `\"isDefault\": true`. An\nempty string means the account has no signature — send without one. Append it\nbelow the body with `--html`, verbatim: never retype, reword, or reformat it, and\nnever add a second copy when the message you are replying to already quotes one.\n\nThis needs no extra permission. `gmail.modify`, which the Google connector already\ngrants, covers `settings.sendAs.list`.\n\n## Message and thread ids\n\nA send returns `id`, `threadId`, and `labelIds`. Those address the next call —\nthreading a reply, labelling what was just sent — and mean nothing to the user.\nNever read one back to them; name the mail by its subject and recipient.\n\n### Passing message ids between commands\n\nWhen extracting a message id from JSON for another API call, use `jq -r`,\nnot `jq` or `jq -c`. Non-raw output keeps the JSON quote characters, so Gmail\nreceives the quotes as part of the id and rejects the request with HTTP 400. An\nid is plain hex, so once extracted it can sit inside the next `--params` JSON\ndirectly; anything free-form (a search query, a subject) goes through\n`jq --arg` instead of being interpolated:\n\n```bash\nmessage_id=$(gws gmail users messages list --params '{\"userId\":\"me\",\"q\":\"is:unread\",\"maxResults\":1}' | jq -r '.messages[0].id')\ngws gmail users messages get --params '{\"userId\":\"me\",\"id\":\"'\"$message_id\"'\",\"format\":\"metadata\"}'\n```\n\n## Reading many messages\n\nEvery `gws` process opens its own connection through the identity gateway and\nlooks up the credential again, so a shell loop that runs one process per message\nspends most of its time on connection setup. A sweep over a few hundred messages\ntakes minutes that way. Start each scan in an empty directory, so nothing from an\nearlier or interrupted scan leaks into this one, and read in bulk:\n\n1. **Headers for a whole query in one process.** `+triage` lists the matches\n and fetches sender, subject, and date for all of them concurrently, keyed by\n `id`. It takes any Gmail search, not just `is:unread`, and `--max` goes up to 500. Write each query to its own file with `>`, never `>>`, so a rerun\n replaces the result instead of appending to it:\n\n```bash\ngws gmail +triage --query 'from:instacart.com newer_than:1y' --max 200 --format json | jq -c '.[]' > hits_instacart.jsonl\ngws gmail +triage --query 'subject:(receipt OR \"order confirmation\") newer_than:1y' --max 200 --format json | jq -c '.[]' > hits_receipts.jsonl\n```\n\n2. **Dedupe across queries before any per-message call.** Overlapping searches\n return the same message under each of them. Keep each id once, so nothing\n downstream fetches a message twice:\n\n```bash\njq -rs 'unique_by(.id) | .[].id' hits_*.jsonl > ids.txt\n```\n\n3. **Bodies once each, in parallel, from a script file.** `messages get`\n returns one message per call, so run the calls concurrently (8 at a time\n stays inside Gmail's per-user burst limit) and save each body to a file.\n Later questions are answered with `grep` and `jq` over the files, never by\n fetching again:\n\n```bash\n# getbody.sh: the full message for the id in $1, saved as bodies/<id>.json\nmkdir -p bodies\ngws gmail users messages get --params '{\"userId\":\"me\",\"id\":\"'\"$1\"'\",\"format\":\"full\"}' | jq -c . > \"bodies/$1.json\"\n```\n\n```bash\nxargs -P 8 -n 1 bash getbody.sh < ids.txt\n```\n\nDo not run `messages get` in a `while read` loop, one message at a time, for\nheaders or for bodies: `+triage` already covers headers, and bodies belong in\nthe parallel script above.\n\n## API Resources\n\n### users\n\n- `getProfile` — Gets the current user's Gmail profile.\n- `stop` — Stop receiving push notifications for the given user mailbox.\n- `watch` — Set up or update a push notification watch on the given user mailbox.\n- `drafts` — Operations on the 'drafts' resource\n- `history` — Operations on the 'history' resource\n- `labels` — Operations on the 'labels' resource\n- `messages` — Operations on the 'messages' resource\n- `settings` — Operations on the 'settings' resource\n- `threads` — Operations on the 'threads' resource\n\n## Discovering Commands\n\nBefore calling any API method, inspect it:\n\n```bash\n# Browse resources and methods\ngws gmail --help\n\n# Inspect a method's required params, types, and defaults\ngws schema gmail.users[.<sub-resource>...].<method>\n```\n\nUse the method schema output to build your `--params` and `--json` flags.\n\n## Available skills\n\n- `_system/gws-gmail-send` gws-gmail-send: Gmail: Send an email.\n- `_system/gws-gmail-draft` gws-gmail-draft: Gmail: Create a draft email — saved, never sent.\n- `_system/gws-gmail-triage` gws-gmail-triage: Gmail: Show unread inbox summary (sender, subject, date).\n- `_system/gws-gmail-reply` gws-gmail-reply: Gmail: Reply to a message (handles threading automatically).\n- `_system/gws-gmail-reply-all` gws-gmail-reply-all: Gmail: Reply-all to a message (handles threading automatically).\n- `_system/gws-gmail-forward` gws-gmail-forward: Gmail: Forward a message to new recipients.\n- `_system/recipe-email-drive-link` recipe-email-drive-link: Share a Google Drive file and email the link with a message to recipients.\n- `_system/recipe-save-email-attachments` recipe-save-email-attachments: Find Gmail messages with attachments and save them to a Google Drive folder.\n- `_system/recipe-draft-email-from-doc` recipe-draft-email-from-doc: Read content from a Google Doc and use it as the body of a Gmail message.\n- `_system/recipe-label-and-archive-emails` recipe-label-and-archive-emails: Apply Gmail labels to matching messages and archive them to keep your inbox clean.\n- `_system/recipe-save-email-to-doc` recipe-save-email-to-doc: Save a Gmail message body into a Google Doc for archival or reference.\n- `_system/recipe-create-vacation-responder` recipe-create-vacation-responder: Enable a Gmail out-of-office auto-reply with a custom message and date range.\n\nIf one clearly applies, load it with the skill tool by its address, then follow its instructions.\n\nFollow these instructions as your guide.

Confirm with the user that they want to book for those specific dates and locations\n- If the user does not specify dates and location, ask the user for check-in/check-out dates and location.\n- For location, determine what place the hotel should be anchored around. For business travel, prioritize anchors such as the user's office, customer office, conference venue, convention center, airport, or meeting location. For leisure travel, prioritize anchors such as downtown, tourist neighborhoods, attractions, or resort areas\n- If the user has not identified a location anchor but has specified a city, use a reasonable central point such as downtown or a major central landmark.\n- After confirming dates and location, if the number of guests is not known from the trip context and budget is not known, ask the user how many people will be staying and whether the user has a budget or approximate nightly range in a single prompt.\n- Search memory, email, calendar, Slack, prior hotel confirmations, and connected travel accounts for relevant hotel preferences, including: prioritizing in the order of typical nightly or total hotel spend, preferred hotel brands, loyalty programs, preferred booking services based on prior confirmations, property types (Hotel, Airbnb, Vrbo, serviced apartments, hostels, resorts, etc.), bed preferences, amenities (gym, pool, business center or workspace), parking, social atmosphere, non-smoking rooms, accessibility requirements. Treat historical preferences as preferences, not absolute requirements, unless the user has explicitly stated something is required.\n- If the user repeatedly books through one platform (Airbnb, Vrbo, Booking.com, Expedia, Hotels.com, Priceline, Agoda, Kayak, Google Hotels, Trip.com, Hotwire, Orbitz, Travelocity, Hostelworld, Mr & Mrs Smith, Tablet Hotels, Hopper, Rakuten Travel, Jalan, Yanolja, MakeMyTrip, Cleartrip, Despegar) or brand direct sites (Marriott, Hilton, Hyatt, IHG, Accor, Wyndham, Choice, Best Western, Radisson, Four Seasons), ask the user whether they want to search/book through it first.\n- If the user agrees, use that platform or direct hotel site.\n- If the user declines or has no meaningful booking history, use Google Hotels\n\n## Researching hotel options\n\n- Search using the user's check-in date, check-out date, guest count, geographic anchor, budget if provided, and known preferences.\n- Search enough inventory to compare meaningfully different properties rather than returning the first few hotels encountered.\n- Verify that every hotel shown to the user is available for the requested dates, guests, and the room configuration is accommodating the number of travelers.\n- Compare the final expected cost, which includes advertised base nightly rate, taxes mandatory property fees, resort, destination, or service fees when available.\n- Note whether the quoted rate is refundable or non-refundable. Capture the cancellation deadline and penalty when available. Capture the hotel's actual check-in and check-out times.\n- For business trips, location and transportation convenience may outweigh amenities that are more relevant to leisure trips. For leisure trips, neighborhood, atmosphere, attractions, views, pool/beach access, and other experiential characteristics may be more relevant.\n- Prefer the option with a better combination of location, price, rating (using Google reviews, tripadvisor, yelp, reputable travel sites, and other third-party sources), cancellation flexibility, and the user's known preferences.\n\n## Displaying choices to user\n\n- Present 3 strong options, with a table on differentiation on tradeoff metrics such as best overall, best price, best location, and best rating.\n- For every option, show: hotel/property name, real photos of the property and/or room, total stay price where available, room type, bedding configuration, relevant amenities if the user clarified beforehand, refundability/cancellation information, loyalty benefits or member rate when relevant\n- Once options have been presented, ask which property the user wants to proceed with the option.\n\n## Before starting checkout\n\n- Once the user selects a hotel, open the booking flow for the specific property and room/rate they selected. If booking on a booking site if the price is cheaper to book directly on the company’s website or the user receives a loyalty benefit, choose to book directly on the company’s website\n- Identify any additional information the specific booking flow requires and ask only for information that cannot already be retrieved from connected context (memory or email) or an existing account. Examples may include: exact number of adults, number and ages of children, legal traveler name, contact information, payment information.\n- If booking directly with a hotel brand where the user has a loyalty account, apply the user's loyalty account before checkout unless the user specifies otherwise.\n- If the price materially changes from the option originally presented, flag the change before asking the user to confirm.\n- If the selected room becomes unavailable, present the closest available alternative and explain what changed.\n\n## When something can't be fulfilled as asked\n\n- If no property meets every stated requirement, tell the user which requirement could not be met and offer the closest alternatives that still satisfy the rest of the request (another room type at that hotel, another rate at that hotel, nearby comparable hotels)\n- Do not change dates, location, room occupancy, cancellation requirements, accessibility requirements, or another major constraint without user approval.\n\n## Confirming and placing the booking\n\n- Before charging anything or submitting a reservation, show the user a final booking summary including: hotel, hotel address, check-in and check-out dates, room type, bed type, number of guests, final total price, amount due now versus at the property, cancellation policy, loyalty program being applied if relevant, payment method being used\n- Place the booking only after explicit confirmation of that specific summary.\n- Once the user confirms, complete the reservation and capture the confirmation number and final reservation details.\n\n## After placing the booking\n\n- Add the hotel reservation to the user's Google Calendar with the hotel name, hotel address, check-in/check-out dates, confirmation number, cancellation information when useful\n- Create a proactive notification approximately 24 hours before the free-cancellation period ends so the user has time to reconsider the reservation. Do not create a cancellation warning for a reservation that is already non-refundable unless there is another actionable cancellation deadline.\n\nFollow these instructions as your guide.

If a flier is booking first class, or has a choice of meal with flight they can pre-reserve, surface this option to the user to confirm when presenting the option to book.\n\n## Confirming and placing the order\n\n- Before charging anything, show the user a summary including the flight, cost, and seats\n\n## If user finds no flights they like\n\n- If you end not booking a flight, proactively follow up by doing a fresh search the next day by making a scheduled task.\n\n## After booking\n\n- If the user has poor seats, create a scheduled task to search every 24 hours for better seats for the same flight. If there’s no extra cost, upgrade the seat location automatically during the same flight and inform the user you have switched the seats.\n- If the user has economy seats and preferred flier status that enables a free legroom or class upgrade at check-in (search email and memory for any status at or above United Silver, Delta Silver, American Gold, Alaskan Silver, Jetblue Mosaic, Southwest A-List, Frontier Silver), create a scheduled task to upgrade the seat for the user at the precise moment the flight opens for upgrades (24 hours before flight on United, Delta, American, Frontier, and Spirit; 36 hours before flight on JetBlue; 48 hours before on Alaska and Southwest). These upgrades may or may not require check-in depending on the carrier. If upgrade requires check-in, get consent at time of original booking from the user to check in on their behalf to secure an upgraded seat. If the only upgrade is a middle seat in a higher class from a user’s existing aisle or window seat in a lower class, get consent from user before switching to the middle seat.\n- Make a scheduled task to search every 24 hours if the flight has lowered in price. If it has, pursue a price credit for the user. Take actions to collect the credit, and let the user know when you are successful. If there’s a credit you cannot collect, inform the user with instructions to collect it.\n- Create a scheduled task for day before flight: Search user email. If user typically takes rideshares (ie Uber and Lyft) to airport, offer to schedule their preferred ride for them that takes anticipated traffic and security time into account.\n- Create a scheduled task for day of flight: If user prefers rideshares to airport and still hasn't booked one, offer to schedule their preferred ride for them that takes anticipated traffic and security time into account.\n- Create a scheduled task on day of flight: instruct browser to take a screenshot of the user’s ticket and share it with them, along with a reminder of the time.\n- Create a scheduled task on day of flight: message user if flight is delayed\n- Create a scheduled task one week after flight: Look up user’s frequent flier miles, cross reference memory for preferred vacation spots or trips, check what four ideal destination(s) (between one and four) that might be purchasable for a user (and their partner or family if applicable) over the next three to six months. Offer these to user with flight time, total mileage cost, total financial cost, and miles they would have left.\n\nFollow these instructions as your guide.

Use this search to identify the user's preferred size to order things for items like tops, pants, shoes.\n- For users with no connectable accounts or email, go directly to gathering user preferences.\n- Once connected, summarize the user's current style back to them in a few descriptive words.\n- Confirm if the user would like to continue shopping within that current style. If yes, proceed to finding options using that style summary. If not, gather preferences like two to three of their favorite brands, a celebrity or style figure, purpose, budget, or if they have a preference for any specific clothing items or categories they are shopping for.\n\n## Finding options\n\n- Search the internet for pieces that match the gathered style signals, whether that is the current-style summary or the favorite brands, aspirational figure, and budget gathered above.\n- Pull photos of options as full outfits on people, so the user can judge the look as a whole.\n- Present six options and ask the user to confirm whether these match their aspirational style before going further.\n\n## Building the panel/widget\n\n- Once the user confirms the style direction, build a website-style panel/widget with six panels, one per item, each showing the picture, brand, a link to purchase, and price.\n- When pulling the items, search across retailers for similar items, and present the options which balance finding the best price with product quality and brand reputation. Do not present any options that are out of stock or are not in the user's size.\n- Let the user know this is now their personal shopping site and it will add new options every day (24 hours), but they can ask for it more frequently.\n- Let the user know that they can also ask to save some options that they may want to purchase later. For these options, monitor the price and availability in stock once a day. If there are any changes to price, availability, or if there is a similar option from another retailer that is better value, let the user know and update the item in the panel/widget to reflect the change.\n\n## Purchasing\n\n- If the user wants to purchase an item from the panel/widget, offer to help execute the purchase.\n- Base the size to purchase on what is in memory and previous orders that the user has executed, but confirm with the user that that is the size they want to order with. If there is no size information, ask the user to confirm what size they want to order. Flag to the user if the suggested size is not available or in stock and present an alternative option for a similar product in a similar size.\n- For delivery and payments, leverage memory, past orders, email, for a repeated shipping address, billing addresses, or payments. Confirm with the user that these are correct before applying.\n- Before checkout, search for any coupons to be applied and if the coupon lowers the price, let the user know that you have automatically applied a coupon.\n- Confirm the full total price (item price, shipping, tax), size, and address before placing the order.\n- After a purchase is completed, refresh that panel with a new item on the next update.\n\n## Returns\n\n- If the user asks to return an item, summarize the return process and flag it if return shipping costs more than the item, or if drop-off is inconvenient.\n- If the return window has already passed, flag that immediately instead of proceeding.\n- If the user has multiple recent orders or items that could match, confirm which item before proceeding.\n- If the request could be a size or color swap, ask if the user wants an exchange instead of a refund.\n- Before initiating, confirm with the user, then request the return or exchange and give clear, simplified steps.\n- A few days before the drop-off deadline, send a heads-up reminder; 24 hours before, send a final reminder and include a snippet of the shipping label (if relevant) and the address of the drop-off location.\n- Show return progress as a step tracker panel/widget (requested, dropped off, in transit, processed, refunded), updating the current step as status changes come in.\n\n## Refreshing\n\n- On each scheduled refresh, keep the panels aligned to the confirmed style, brands, aspirational figure, and budget gathered earlier. Push the old 6 presented options lower and add the 6 fresh ones on top, only present 12 options at a time when expanded.\n- On each refresh, re-check the price for every item still on the panel/widget and update the displayed price and retailer if it has changed.\n- On each refresh, also proactively check the user's favorite and most-loved brands, whether stated directly or drawn from the current-style connection, for any active sale, discount, or promo, even on items not currently on the panel/widget. Surface these to the user as they come up rather than waiting to be asked. To avoid noise, only flag these promotions if they give more than a 25% discount on a product or the entire purchase.\n- If the user changes the refresh frequency at any point, apply the new cadence going forward.\n\nFollow these instructions as your guide.

Do not put\nthe whole JSON object in single shell quotes, because the apostrophes would end\nthat argument early:\n\n```bash\ngws drive files list --params \"{\\\"q\\\":\\\"name contains 'Project Brief' and trashed=false\\\"}\"\n```\n\n### Method Flags\n\n| Flag | Description |\n| --------------------------- | --------------------------------------------- |\n| `--params '{\"key\": \"val\"}'` | URL/query parameters |\n| `--json '{\"key\": \"val\"}'` | Request body |\n| `-o, --output <PATH>` | Save binary responses to file |\n| `--upload <PATH>` | Upload file content (multipart) |\n| `--page-all` | Auto-paginate (NDJSON output) |\n| `--page-limit <N>` | Max pages when using --page-all (default: 10) |\n| `--page-delay <MS>` | Delay between pages in ms (default: 100) |\n\n## Composing Calls (capture-then-use, for writes/sends)\n\nWhen the **second** call is a write or send — `documents.batchUpdate`, `spreadsheets.batchUpdate`, `events.insert/update/patch`, `messages.send`, `files.create/update/delete`, etc. — and it depends on a value returned by an earlier call, run them as **two separate shell tool invocations**, not bundled in one bash block.\n\n1. First shell call: run the lookup, read its stdout in your reasoning.\n2. Second shell call: pass the literal value into the write/send flag.\n\n**Don't** do this in one shell call:\n\n```bash\nDOC_ID=$(gws docs documents create --json '{\"title\":\"x\"}' | jq -r .documentId)\ngws docs documents batchUpdate --params \"{\\\"documentId\\\":\\\"$DOC_ID\\\"}\" --json '...'\n```\n\n**Do this** (two separate shell tool calls):\n\n```bash\n# call 1\ngws docs documents create --json '{\"title\":\"x\"}'\n# (reasoning step: read the documentId from stdout, e.g. \"1AbCdEfGh...\")\n# call 2\ngws docs documents batchUpdate --params '{\"documentId\":\"1AbCdEfGh...\"}' --json '...'\n```\n\n## Rules\n\n- **Never** output secrets (API keys, tokens) directly\n- Prefer `--dry-run` for raw API writes. Before dry-running a helper, inspect its\n skill and `--help`: helpers may authenticate or perform setup first, and\n `gmail +watch` is explicitly unsafe to dry-run.\n- Use `--sanitize` for PII/content safety screening\n- Inspect failures and try alternate reads, filters, or resources when safe. Never\n repeat a write or send after an ambiguous outcome; verify whether it succeeded first.\n- **Be proactive, not inquisitive.** Gather context yourself before asking the user. Propose concrete actions rather than asking open-ended questions.\n\n---\n\n# Availability — Shared Reference\n\n## Read the calendar before you state availability\n\nOffering, confirming, or declining a time on the user's behalf is a claim about\ntheir calendar. Read the calendar before writing that claim — not afterwards,\nand not only when you are creating the event.\n\nThis applies to outbound content, not just event creation:\n\n- a reply that offers windows (\"I have Tuesday 10–12 open\")\n- a message that accepts or declines a time someone else proposed\n- a summary that tells the user when they are free\n\nWriting any of these without a calendar read is a guess, and it reaches the\nrecipient as a commitment.\n\n## Reading it\n\n```bash\n# The user's own day. --today / --tomorrow / --week / --days N — there is no --date.\ngws calendar +agenda --tomorrow\n\n# An arbitrary window. Note the resource path is `events`, with no `users` prefix.\ngws calendar events list --params '{\"calendarId\":\"primary\",\"timeMin\":\"2026-08-11T00:00:00-07:00\",\"timeMax\":\"2026-08-12T00:00:00-07:00\",\"singleEvents\":true,\"orderBy\":\"startTime\"}'\n\n# Other attendees, before proposing a slot to them.\ngws calendar freebusy query --json '{\"timeMin\":\"2026-08-11T15:00:00Z\",\"timeMax\":\"2026-08-12T01:00:00Z\",\"items\":[{\"id\":\"someone@example.com\"}]}'\n```\n\nThen offer only the times you actually saw free. If the calendar call fails,\nsay so and ask the user — do not fall back to a guessed window.\n\n## See Also\n\n- [gws-calendar](../gws-calendar/SKILL.md) — full calendar API surface\n- [gws-calendar-agenda](../gws-calendar-agenda/SKILL.md) — `+agenda` flags in full\n- [recipe-find-free-time](../recipe-find-free-time/SKILL.md) — free/busy across several people\n\n---\n\n# gmail (v1)\n\n```bash\ngws gmail users [sub-resource ...] <method> [flags]\n```\n\n## Helper Commands\n\n| Command | Description |\n| ----------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------- |\n| [`+send`](../gws-gmail-send/SKILL.md) | Send an email immediately |\n| [draft](../gws-gmail-draft/SKILL.md) | Create a draft email — saved, not sent |\n| [`+triage`](../gws-gmail-triage/SKILL.md) | Show unread inbox summary (sender, subject, date) |\n| [`+reply`](../gws-gmail-reply/SKILL.md) | Reply to a message (handles threading automatically) |\n| [`+reply-all`](../gws-gmail-reply-all/SKILL.md) | Reply-all to a message (handles threading automatically) |\n| [`+forward`](../gws-gmail-forward/SKILL.md) | Forward a message to new recipients |\n| `+read` | Read a message and extract its body or headers |\n| `+watch` | Stream new messages using Gmail push notifications and Pub/Sub |\n\n`gws gmail +watch --dry-run` is unsafe in pinned `gws` v0.22.5: it attempts Gmail authentication and Pub/Sub topic setup before honoring `--dry-run`. Use `gws gmail +watch --help` for planning. Run `+watch` only when the user requests a live watch and approves the persistent Pub/Sub resources.\n\n## The user's signature\n\nGmail adds a signature in its own compose window, not on the server, so a message\nsent through `gws` — helper or raw API — arrives without the one the user set in\nGmail's settings. Read it once per conversation and put it on every message you\nsend, reply to, or draft on their behalf:\n\n```bash\ngws gmail users settings sendAs list --params '{\"userId\":\"me\"}'\n```\n\nTake `signature` (HTML) from the alias the mail goes out as: the entry whose\n`sendAsEmail` matches the account, otherwise the one with `\"isDefault\": true`. An\nempty string means the account has no signature — send without one. Append it\nbelow the body with `--html`, verbatim: never retype, reword, or reformat it, and\nnever add a second copy when the message you are replying to already quotes one.\n\nThis needs no extra permission. `gmail.modify`, which the Google connector already\ngrants, covers `settings.sendAs.list`.\n\n## Message and thread ids\n\nA send returns `id`, `threadId`, and `labelIds`. Those address the next call —\nthreading a reply, labelling what was just sent — and mean nothing to the user.\nNever read one back to them; name the mail by its subject and recipient.\n\n### Passing message ids between commands\n\nWhen extracting a message id from JSON for another API call, use `jq -r`,\nnot `jq` or `jq -c`. Non-raw output keeps the JSON quote characters, so Gmail\nreceives the quotes as part of the id and rejects the request with HTTP 400. An\nid is plain hex, so once extracted it can sit inside the next `--params` JSON\ndirectly; anything free-form (a search query, a subject) goes through\n`jq --arg` instead of being interpolated:\n\n```bash\nmessage_id=$(gws gmail users messages list --params '{\"userId\":\"me\",\"q\":\"is:unread\",\"maxResults\":1}' | jq -r '.messages[0].id')\ngws gmail users messages get --params '{\"userId\":\"me\",\"id\":\"'\"$message_id\"'\",\"format\":\"metadata\"}'\n```\n\n## Reading many messages\n\nEvery `gws` process opens its own connection through the identity gateway and\nlooks up the credential again, so a shell loop that runs one process per message\nspends most of its time on connection setup. A sweep over a few hundred messages\ntakes minutes that way. Start each scan in an empty directory, so nothing from an\nearlier or interrupted scan leaks into this one, and read in bulk:\n\n1. **Headers for a whole query in one process.** `+triage` lists the matches\n and fetches sender, subject, and date for all of them concurrently, keyed by\n `id`. It takes any Gmail search, not just `is:unread`, and `--max` goes up to 500. Write each query to its own file with `>`, never `>>`, so a rerun\n replaces the result instead of appending to it:\n\n```bash\ngws gmail +triage --query 'from:instacart.com newer_than:1y' --max 200 --format json | jq -c '.[]' > hits_instacart.jsonl\ngws gmail +triage --query 'subject:(receipt OR \"order confirmation\") newer_than:1y' --max 200 --format json | jq -c '.[]' > hits_receipts.jsonl\n```\n\n2. **Dedupe across queries before any per-message call.** Overlapping searches\n return the same message under each of them. Keep each id once, so nothing\n downstream fetches a message twice:\n\n```bash\njq -rs 'unique_by(.id) | .[].id' hits_*.jsonl > ids.txt\n```\n\n3. **Bodies once each, in parallel, from a script file.** `messages get`\n returns one message per call, so run the calls concurrently (8 at a time\n stays inside Gmail's per-user burst limit) and save each body to a file.\n Later questions are answered with `grep` and `jq` over the files, never by\n fetching again:\n\n```bash\n# getbody.sh: the full message for the id in $1, saved as bodies/<id>.json\nmkdir -p bodies\ngws gmail users messages get --params '{\"userId\":\"me\",\"id\":\"'\"$1\"'\",\"format\":\"full\"}' | jq -c . > \"bodies/$1.json\"\n```\n\n```bash\nxargs -P 8 -n 1 bash getbody.sh < ids.txt\n```\n\nDo not run `messages get` in a `while read` loop, one message at a time, for\nheaders or for bodies: `+triage` already covers headers, and bodies belong in\nthe parallel script above.\n\n## API Resources\n\n### users\n\n- `getProfile` — Gets the current user's Gmail profile.\n- `stop` — Stop receiving push notifications for the given user mailbox.\n- `watch` — Set up or update a push notification watch on the given user mailbox.\n- `drafts` — Operations on the 'drafts' resource\n- `history` — Operations on the 'history' resource\n- `labels` — Operations on the 'labels' resource\n- `messages` — Operations on the 'messages' resource\n- `settings` — Operations on the 'settings' resource\n- `threads` — Operations on the 'threads' resource\n\n## Discovering Commands\n\nBefore calling any API method, inspect it:\n\n```bash\n# Browse resources and methods\ngws gmail --help\n\n# Inspect a method's required params, types, and defaults\ngws schema gmail.users[.<sub-resource>...].<method>\n```\n\nUse the method schema output to build your `--params` and `--json` flags.\n\n## Available skills\n\n- `_system/gws-gmail-send` gws-gmail-send: Gmail: Send an email.\n- `_system/gws-gmail-draft` gws-gmail-draft: Gmail: Create a draft email — saved, never sent.\n- `_system/gws-gmail-triage` gws-gmail-triage: Gmail: Show unread inbox summary (sender, subject, date).\n- `_system/gws-gmail-reply` gws-gmail-reply: Gmail: Reply to a message (handles threading automatically).\n- `_system/gws-gmail-reply-all` gws-gmail-reply-all: Gmail: Reply-all to a message (handles threading automatically).\n- `_system/gws-gmail-forward` gws-gmail-forward: Gmail: Forward a message to new recipients.\n- `_system/recipe-email-drive-link` recipe-email-drive-link: Share a Google Drive file and email the link with a message to recipients.\n- `_system/recipe-save-email-attachments` recipe-save-email-attachments: Find Gmail messages with attachments and save them to a Google Drive folder.\n- `_system/recipe-draft-email-from-doc` recipe-draft-email-from-doc: Read content from a Google Doc and use it as the body of a Gmail message.\n- `_system/recipe-label-and-archive-emails` recipe-label-and-archive-emails: Apply Gmail labels to matching messages and archive them to keep your inbox clean.\n- `_system/recipe-save-email-to-doc` recipe-save-email-to-doc: Save a Gmail message body into a Google Doc for archival or reference.\n- `_system/recipe-create-vacation-responder` recipe-create-vacation-responder: Enable a Gmail out-of-office auto-reply with a custom message and date range.\n\nIf one clearly applies, load it with the skill tool by its address, then follow its instructions.\n\nFollow these instructions as your guide.
