## Capabilities

- Creates an event in the primary calendar or a specified calendar.
- Sets required event titles, start times, and end times.
- Adds optional locations and event descriptions.
- Adds one or more attendee email addresses.
- Creates an optional Google Meet conference link.
- Accepts RFC3339 timestamps with explicit time zone offsets.

## Use Cases

- Schedule a team meeting: Create a timed calendar event with attendees, a location, and an optional Google Meet link.
- Add customer appointments: Create consistent customer appointments with clear titles, times, descriptions, and attendee addresses.
- Automate operational scheduling: Turn approved workflow details into events on the correct calendar with explicit RFC3339 timestamps.

## Prompt Templates

### Create a basic event

```
Create an event titled {title} from {start_time} to {end_time}. Confirm the details before executing.
```

### Add event details

```
Create {title} from {start_time} to {end_time} at {location} with this description: {description}. Confirm before executing.
```

### Invite attendees

```
Create {title} from {start_time} to {end_time} and invite {attendee_emails}. Show the final details for confirmation.
```

### Schedule on a specific calendar

```
Create {title} on calendar {calendar_id} from {start_time} to {end_time}, invite {attendees}, and add Google Meet. Request confirmation.
```

## Limitations

- Requires the GWS command-line tool and valid Google Workspace authentication.
- Creates events only and does not update, delete, or search existing events.
- Requires explicit start and end timestamps instead of natural-language dates.
- Writes to Google Calendar and should run only after user confirmation.

## Best Practices

- Use complete RFC3339 timestamps with explicit time zone offsets.
- Verify the calendar, attendees, start time, and end time before execution.
- Request user confirmation immediately before creating the event.

## Anti Patterns

- Do not create events from ambiguous dates or missing time zones.
- Do not invite attendees without verifying every email address.
- Do not execute the write command without explicit user confirmation.
