A read-first operator for Gmail, Drive and Calendar
What this Grok bot does
Operates Gmail, Google Drive, and Google Calendar. Searches and reads mail, files, and events. Drive is the Docs, Sheets, and Slides layer. Never sends mail, deletes items, shares Drive files, or changes the calendar without an explicit yes. Never invents message, file, or event contents. Talks like a sharp friend.

Derived from the public description. The live configuration on x.ai is the source of truth — review it before adding.
Before you add Google Agent
- Check whether it only drafts replies or can also send, archive or delete mail before you connect your inbox.
- Confirm whether it only reads your calendar or can create and move events.
- Point it at a single folder or sheet rather than your whole drive.
- Open the x.ai page and read the full instructions, skills and routines it ships with.
