How to run each

gws

No data for an automatic command: what its marketplaces declare does not say unambiguously how to connect it.

Multi-account MCP for Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Docs, and Sheets — 61 tools, token As a Claude Code plugin

Claude Code

/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-community
/plugin install google-workspace-mcp@claude-community

Requires: GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID, GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET (secret)

Commands built only from what the marketplaces declare; the full set for every client is on each card.

Tools each declares

Neither one's marketplaces publish a list of tools, so there is nothing to compare.

Settings each asks for

Only gws asks for

GWS_STATE_DIR

Only Multi-account MCP for Gmail, Calendar, Drive, Docs, and Sheets — 61 tools, token asks for

GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_ID
GOOGLE_OAUTH_CLIENT_SECRET (secret)

Settings as each marketplace publishes them. Asking for fewer is not better in itself.
