--- name: google-calendar description: | Google Calendar API integration with managed OAuth. Create events, list calendars, check availability, and manage schedules. Use this skill when users want to interact with Google Calendar. For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway). compatibility: Requires network access and valid Maton API key metadata: author: maton version: "1.0" clawdbot: emoji: 🧠 requires: env: - MATON_API_KEY --- # Google Calendar Access the Google Calendar API with managed OAuth authentication. Create and manage events, list calendars, and check availability. ## Quick Start Show today's events on the primary calendar. **CLI:** ```bash # Show today's agenda (defaults to primary calendar when -c is omitted) maton google-calendar agenda --today ``` ```bash maton api '/google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events?singleEvents=true&orderBy=startTime&timeMin=2026-05-05T00:00:00Z&timeMax=2026-05-06T00:00:00Z' ``` **Python:** ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events?singleEvents=true&orderBy=startTime&timeMin=2026-05-05T00:00:00Z&timeMax=2026-05-06T00:00:00Z') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ## Base URL ``` https://api.maton.ai/google-calendar/{native-api-path} ``` Maton proxies requests to `www.googleapis.com` and automatically injects your OAuth token. ## Installation **NPM:** ```bash npm install -g @maton-ai/cli ``` **Homebrew:** ```bash brew install maton-ai/cli/maton ``` ## Authentication **CLI:** ```bash maton login # Opens browser for API key maton login --interactive # Skip browser, paste API key directly maton whoami # Show current auth state ``` **Manual:** 1. Sign in or create an account at [maton.ai](https://maton.ai) 2. Go to [maton.ai/settings](https://maton.ai/settings) 3. Copy your API key 4. Set your API key as `MATON_API_KEY`: ```bash export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY" ``` ## Connection Management Manage your Google OAuth connections at `https://api.maton.ai`. ### List Connections **CLI:** ```bash maton connection list google-calendar --status ACTIVE ``` ```bash maton api -X GET /connections -f app=google-calendar -f status=ACTIVE ``` **Python:** ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections?app=google-calendar&status=ACTIVE') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ### Create Connection **CLI:** ```bash maton connection create google-calendar ``` ```bash maton api /connections -f app=google-calendar ``` **Python:** ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json data = json.dumps({'app': 'google-calendar'}).encode() req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections', data=data, method='POST') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ### Get Connection **CLI:** ```bash maton connection view {connection_id} ``` ```bash maton api /connections/{connection_id} ``` **Python:** ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` **Response:** ```json { "connection": { "connection_id": "{connection_id}", "status": "ACTIVE", "creation_time": "2025-12-08T07:20:53.488460Z", "last_updated_time": "2026-01-31T20:03:32.593153Z", "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...", "app": "google-calendar", "metadata": {} } } ``` Open the returned `url` in a browser to complete OAuth authorization. ### Delete Connection **CLI:** ```bash maton connection delete {connection_id} ``` ```bash maton api -X DELETE /connections/{connection_id} ``` **Python:** ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}', method='DELETE') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ### Specifying Connection If you have multiple Google Calendar connections, specify which one to use: **CLI:** ```bash maton google-calendar event list -c primary --connection {connection_id} ``` ```bash maton api /google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events --connection {connection_id} ``` **Python:** ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '{connection_id}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` If you have multiple connections, always specify the connection to ensure requests go to the intended account. ## Security & Permissions - Access is scoped to calendars, events, and availability within the connected Google Calendar account. - **All write operations require explicit user approval.** Before executing any create, update, or delete call, confirm the target resource and intended effect with the user. ## API Reference ### List Calendars ```bash GET /google-calendar/calendar/v3/users/me/calendarList ``` Example: ```bash maton google-calendar calendar list ``` ### Get Calendar ```bash GET /google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/{calendarId} ``` Example: ```bash maton google-calendar calendar view primary ``` ### List Events ```bash GET /google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/[REDACTED_SECRET]/events?maxResults=10&orderBy=startTime&singleEvents=true ``` With time bounds: ```bash GET /google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/[REDACTED_SECRET]/events?timeMin=2024-01-01T00:00:00Z&timeMax=2024-12-31T23:59:59Z&singleEvents=true&orderBy=startTime ``` Example: ```bash maton google-calendar event list -c [REDACTED_SECRET] --time-min 2026-06-17T00:00:00Z --time-max 2026-06-18T00:00:00Z ``` ### Get Event ```bash GET /google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events/{eventId} ``` Example: ```bash maton google-calendar event view EVENT_ID ``` ### Create Event ```bash POST /google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events Content-Type: application/json { "summary": "Team Meeting", "description": "Weekly sync", "start": { "dateTime": "2024-01-15T10:00:00", "timeZone": "America/Los_Angeles" }, "end": { "dateTime": "2024-01-15T11:00:00", "timeZone": "America/Los_Angeles" }, "attendees": [ {"email": "[REDACTED_SECRET]"} ] } ``` Example: ```bash maton google-calendar event create --summary 'Team Meeting' --description 'Weekly sync' --start 2024-01-15T10:00:00-08:00 --end 2024-01-15T11:00:00-08:00 --attendee [REDACTED_SECRET] ``` ### Create All-Day Event ```bash POST /google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events Content-Type: application/json { "summary": "All Day Event", "start": {"date": "2024-01-15"}, "end": {"date": "2024-01-16"} } ``` ### Update Event ```bash PUT /google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events/{eventId} Content-Type: application/json { "summary": "Updated Meeting Title", "start": {"dateTime": "2024-01-15T10:00:00Z"}, "end": {"dateTime": "2024-01-15T11:00:00Z"} } ``` Example: ```bash maton google-calendar event update EVENT_ID --summary 'Updated Meeting Title' --start 2024-01-15T10:00:00Z --end 2024-01-15T11:00:00Z ``` ### Patch Event (partial update) ```bash PATCH /google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events/{eventId} Content-Type: application/json { "summary": "New Title Only" } ``` Example: ```bash maton google-calendar event update EVENT_ID --summary 'New Title Only' ``` ### Delete Event ```bash DELETE /google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events/{eventId} ``` Example: ```bash maton google-calendar event delete EVENT_ID ``` ### Quick Add Event (natural language) ```bash POST /google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events/quickAdd?text=Meeting+with+John+tomorrow+at+3pm ``` Example: ```bash maton google-calendar event quick-add --text 'Meeting with John tomorrow at 3pm' ``` ### Free/Busy Query ```bash POST /google-calendar/calendar/v3/freeBusy Content-Type: application/json { "timeMin": "2024-01-15T00:00:00Z", "timeMax": "2024-01-16T00:00:00Z", "items": [{"id": "primary"}] } ``` Example: ```bash maton google-calendar freebusy query --time-min 2024-01-15T00:00:00Z --time-max 2024-01-16T00:00:00Z ``` ## Pagination Google Calendar uses token-based pagination. The CLI automatically paginates with '--paginate'. Example: ```bash maton google-calendar event list --paginate ``` ## Code Examples ### CLI ```bash # Show today's agenda (defaults to primary calendar when -c is omitted) maton google-calendar agenda --today # Filter with jq maton google-calendar event list --json --jq '.items[] | {summary: .summary, start: .start.dateTime}' # Extract specific fields maton google-calendar calendar list --json --jq '.items[].summary' ``` ### JavaScript ```javascript // List events const response = await fetch( 'https://api.maton.ai/google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events?maxResults=10&singleEvents=true', { headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}` } } ); // Create event await fetch( 'https://api.maton.ai/google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events', { method: 'POST', headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}` }, body: JSON.stringify({ summary: 'Meeting', start: { dateTime: '2024-01-15T10:00:00Z' }, end: { dateTime: '2024-01-15T11:00:00Z' } }) } ); ``` ### Python ```python import os import requests headers = {'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'} # List events events = requests.get( 'https://api.maton.ai/google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events', headers=headers, params={'maxResults': 10, 'singleEvents': 'true'} ).json() # Create event response = requests.post( 'https://api.maton.ai/google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events', headers=headers, json={ 'summary': 'Meeting', 'start': {'dateTime': '2024-01-15T10:00:00Z'}, 'end': {'dateTime': '2024-01-15T11:00:00Z'} } ) ``` ## Notes - Times must be in RFC3339 format (e.g., `2024-01-15T10:00:00Z`) - For recurring events, use `singleEvents=true` to expand instances - `orderBy=startTime` requires `singleEvents=true` - IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use `curl -g` when URLs contain brackets (`fields[]`, `sort[]`, `records[]`) to disable glob parsing - IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to `jq` or other commands, environment variables like `$MATON_API_KEY` may not expand correctly in some shell environments. You may get "Invalid API key" errors when piping. ## Error Handling | Status | Meaning | |--------|---------| | 400 | Missing Google Calendar connection | | 401 | Invalid or missing Maton API key | | 429 | Rate limited (10 req/sec per account) | | 4xx/5xx | Passthrough error from Google Calendar API | ### Troubleshooting: API Key Issues **CLI:** 1. Check your auth state: ```bash maton whoami ``` 2. Verify the API key is valid by listing connections: ```bash maton connection list ``` **Manual:** 1. Check that the `MATON_API_KEY` environment variable is set: ```bash echo $MATON_API_KEY ``` 2. Verify the API key is valid by listing connections: ```bash python <<'EOF' import urllib.request, os, json req = urllib.request.Request('https://api.maton.ai/connections') req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}') print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2)) EOF ``` ### Troubleshooting: Invalid App Name 1. Ensure your URL path starts with `google-calendar`. For example: - Correct: `https://api.maton.ai/google-calendar/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events` - Incorrect: `https://api.maton.ai/calendar/v3/calendars/primary/events` ## Resources - [Calendar API Overview](https://developers.google.com/calendar/api/v3/reference) - [List Calendars](https://developers.google.com/workspace/calendar/api/v3/reference/calendarList/list) - [List Events](https://developers.google.com/workspace/calendar/api/v3/reference/events/list) - [Get Event](https://developers.google.com/workspace/calendar/api/v3/reference/events/get) - [Insert Event](https://developers.google.com/workspace/calendar/api/v3/reference/events/insert) - [Update Event](https://developers.google.com/workspace/calendar/api/v3/reference/events/update) - [Delete Event](https://developers.google.com/workspace/calendar/api/v3/reference/events/delete) - [Quick Add Event](https://developers.google.com/workspace/calendar/api/v3/reference/events/quickAdd) - [Free/Busy Query](https://developers.google.com/workspace/calendar/api/v3/reference/freebusy/query) - [Maton CLI Manual](https://cli.maton.ai/manual) - [Maton Community](https://discord.com/invite/dBfFAcefs2) - [Maton Support](mailto:[REDACTED_SECRET])
