💡 Example Usage

Read Document

const result = await readGoogleDoc({
  documentId: "1BxiMVs0XRA5nFMdKvBdBZjgmUUqptlbs74OgvE2upms",
  format: "text"  // or "json" or "markdown"
});

Append Text

await appendToGoogleDoc({
  documentId: "1BxiMVs0XRA...",
  textToAppend: "\n\nNew section added by AI Agent"
});

Apply Formatting

await applyTextStyle({
  documentId: "1BxiMVs0XRA...",
  target: {
    textToFind: "Important Note",
    matchInstance: 1
  },
  style: {
    bold: true,
    foregroundColor: "#FF0000",
    fontSize: 14
  }
});

Create Document

const newDoc = await createDocument({
  title: "AI Generated Report",
  folderId: "your-folder-id"
});

Work with Multi-Tab Documents

// List tabs
const tabs = await listDocumentTabs({
  documentId: "1BxiMVs0XRA..."
});

// Read specific tab
await readGoogleDoc({
  documentId: "1BxiMVs0XRA...",
  tabId: tabs.data.tabs[0].tabId
});

🔐 Security

• Never commit credentials (credentials.json, token.json)
• OAuth tokens expire after 1 hour (auto-refresh handled)
• Revoke access at https://myaccount.google.com/permissions
• User-based authentication - only accesses user's documents
• Monitor usage in Google Cloud Console

📊 Performance

• Average Response Time: 725ms per operation (includes Drive API)
• Document Read: ~300ms (fast, cached by Google)
• Text Editing: ~450ms (simple updates)
• Drive Operations: ~650ms (includes Drive API calls)
• API Quotas: 300 requests per minute per user

🔄 Multi-Tab Document Support

Google Docs now supports multiple tabs. This server fully supports this feature:

// Tab-aware tools accept optional tabId parameter
- readGoogleDoc
- appendToGoogleDoc
- insertText
- deleteRange

Usage:

1. List tabs with listDocumentTabs
2. Target specific tab with tabId parameter
3. Works without tabId (targets first tab/legacy doc body)
