What it does

Google Drive — search files with Drive query syntax, read / download file content (Docs and Sheets exported), upload new files, create folders, and share files with collaborators (reader / writer / commenter). Use when the user mentions Drive, gdrive, file, folder, share with, upload, attachment, or wants to find / open / share files in their Google Drive.

The Google Drive skill is one of 75+ pre-wired Syncore integrations that any MCP-compatible client — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex CLI, and ChatGPT desktop — can call out of the box. You don't configure MCP servers or copy API keys into a JSON file; the Syncore daemon discovers the skill at startup and exposes its tools to whichever AI client is running.

Sample prompts

Once Syncore is installed and Google Drive is connected, ask your agent something like:

• “Find every PDF in my Drive uploaded this week and list filenames + sizes.”
• “Upload this generated image to my Drive in the /Marketing folder.”
• “Share the latest pricing PDF with [email protected] as viewer.”

Tools available (6)

• google-drive__search_files

  Search / find / list files in Google Drive using a `q` filter string (e.g. "name contains 'report'", "mimeType='application/pdf'"). Use when the user wants to locate a file in their Drive by name, owner, or type.

• google-drive__read_file

  Download / read / open a Google Drive file's contents by file_id. Google Docs and Sheets are exported to text / CSV when possible. Use when the user wants to read or extract text from a file in their Drive.

• google-drive__upload_file

  Upload / create a new file in Google Drive with text content, optional MIME type, and optional parent folder. Use when the user wants to save / store / put a file into their Drive.

• google-drive__create_folder

  Create a new folder in Google Drive, optionally nested under a parent_id. Use when the user wants to organize / group / set up a directory in their Drive.

• google-drive__share_file

  Share / grant access to a Google Drive file by emailing a user reader / writer / commenter permission. Use when the user wants to share a doc with a teammate, give edit access, or invite a reviewer.

• google-drive__delete_file

  Delete a Google Drive file. Works for any Drive item — Docs, Sheets, Slides, uploads, folders — since they're all Drive files under the hood. Default behaviour soft-deletes via the Drive Trash (file hidden from search but recoverable for ~30 days via the web UI). Pass `permanent=true` to hard-delete and bypass recovery
