gmail-bridge

Use this skill whenever the user asks about:

• latest emails / unread emails / email search
• reading a specific email
• searching Google Drive files
• reading/writing Google Sheets ranges
• checking calendar events or creating events

IMPORTANT BEHAVIOR RULES (for a good assistant experience)

• Do NOT return Gmail message IDs alone unless the user explicitly asks.
• For “check my latest email(s)”, return a short list of the latest 5–10 items with: Subject, From, Date, Snippet
• If the user asks “open email #3” or similar, call get on that message ID and summarize.
• For Sheets/Drive/Calendar, always show a concise summary and ask a follow-up only when an ID/range/time window is missing.
