gws CLI

gws CLI is a private Google authorization project for owner-operated business tools. People authorize their own business Google accounts. It is for private owner and staff use, has no public signup, and is not a Google product.

Venue reply helper

The venue reply helper reads incoming Gmail messages and Sent mail, learns a local writing style and grammar from Sent mail, and creates unsent draft replies. A human reviews each draft and sends it. The venue helper has no send operation.

Google permissions

The venue connection requests exactly gmail.readonly and gmail.compose. Google defines gmail.compose as a permission that also allows sending, but the venue helper code only creates drafts. Other workflows that use the Google Workspace CLI run only with the scopes and commands the account owner authorizes. The Google consent screen is authoritative for what is granted.

Processing

Selected email bodies, subjects and header metadata may be passed to Anthropic Claude for drafting, proofreading and style analysis. See the Privacy Policy for details.
