Calendar Setup Skill

Minimum Model

Any model that can follow numbered steps.

Key Concept

Two accounts are involved:

• Agent email — the PA's own Google account (e.g. agent@agentdomain.com)
• Owner email — the human's Google account (e.g. owner@company.com)

The agent needs access to the owner's calendar. These are separate Google accounts. The OpenClaw dashboard "calendar connected" status reflects the *agent's own* calendar — not the owner's. Verify write access explicitly.

Step 1 — Owner Shares Calendar

The owner does this in Google Calendar (not the agent):

1. Open calendar.google.com as the owner
2. Find the primary calendar in the left sidebar (usually their name)
3. Click the three-dot menu → Settings and sharing
4. Under Share with specific people → click + Add people
5. Enter the agent email
6. Set permission to "Make changes to events" — not "See all event details" (that is read-only)
7. Click Send

✅ Done. The agent receives an email confirmation — no action needed from the agent side yet.

If owner can't find the calendar: Scroll down in the sidebar to "Other calendars".

If sharing is blocked: The owner's organization may restrict external sharing. They need to ask their IT admin to allow it.

Step 2 — Agent Authenticates

The agent runs:

# Add the owner's account to gog
gog auth add owner@company.com --services gmail,calendar,drive,contacts

# Verify it was added
gog auth list

Expected output of gog auth list:

owner@company.com  [gmail, calendar, drive, contacts]

If re-authenticating after a permission change or expired token:

gog auth remove owner@company.com
gog auth add owner@company.com --services gmail,calendar,drive,contacts

If gog is not found: Check PATH or reinstall via your OpenClaw distribution.

If OAuth fails with "access blocked": Owner must allow access in Google Account → Security → Third-party apps.

Step 3 — Test Write Access

# Generate timestamps (works on Linux and macOS)
START=$(date -u -d '+1 hour' +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ 2>/dev/null \
  || date -u -v+1H +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)
END=$(date -u -d '+2 hours' +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ 2>/dev/null \
  || date -u -v+2H +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)

# Create a test event in the owner's calendar
GOG_ACCOUNT=owner@company.com gog calendar create primary \
  --summary "PA Setup Test — delete me" \
  --start "$START" \
  --end "$END"

Check the owner's Google Calendar. The test event should appear within 30 seconds.

Delete it after verifying:

# Use EVENT_ID from the output of the create command above
GOG_ACCOUNT=owner@company.com gog calendar delete primary EVENT_ID

Common Issues and Fixes

Dashboard shows "connected" but agent can't write

Cause: Dashboard reflects the agent's own calendar, not the owner's.

Fix:

1. Confirm owner shared their calendar with the agent email (Step 1)
2. Confirm agent ran gog auth add for the owner's account (Step 2)
3. Always use GOG_ACCOUNT=owner@company.com in all commands

"Insufficient permissions" error

Cause: Calendar was shared with read-only permission.

Fix: Owner goes back to Step 1 and changes the permission to "Make changes to events".

"Token expired" or authentication failure

gog auth remove owner@company.com
gog auth add owner@company.com --services gmail,calendar,drive,contacts

Multiple calendars (work + personal)

# Add both accounts
gog auth add work@company.com --services calendar
gog auth add personal@gmail.com --services calendar

# See what calendars each account has
GOG_ACCOUNT=work@company.com gog calendar list
GOG_ACCOUNT=personal@gmail.com gog calendar list

# Use the specific calendar ID (from list output) instead of "primary"
GOG_ACCOUNT=work@company.com gog calendar create CALENDAR_ID \
  --summary "Meeting" \
  --start "2026-04-02T10:00:00+00:00" \
  --end "2026-04-02T11:00:00+00:00"

macOS date command

# Linux: use -d
date -u -d '+1 hour' +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ

# macOS: use -v
date -u -v+1H +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ

Useful Commands

# List all authenticated accounts
gog auth list

# List owner's calendars
GOG_ACCOUNT=owner@company.com gog calendar list

# List events (next 7 days)
GOG_ACCOUNT=owner@company.com gog calendar events primary \
  --from $(date -u +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ) \
  --to $(date -u -d '+7 days' +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ 2>/dev/null || date -u -v+7d +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ)

# Create event with attendee
GOG_ACCOUNT=owner@company.com gog calendar create primary \
  --summary "Meeting title" \
  --start "2026-04-02T10:00:00+00:00" \
  --end "2026-04-02T11:00:00+00:00" \
  --attendees "attendee@company.com"

# Delete event
GOG_ACCOUNT=owner@company.com gog calendar delete primary EVENT_ID

# Remove authenticated account
gog auth remove owner@company.com

Heleni-specific: Direct API Workaround (when gog CLI auth fails)

gog auth login requires a browser — doesn't work on a server. Use the pre-existing credentials in /opt/ocana/openclaw/.gog/credentials.json instead.

# 1. Read client_id, client_secret, refresh_token from the file (owner account)
# Accounts: "agent" (genesis@ocana.ai), "owner" (netanelab@monday.com)

# 2. Refresh access token
curl -s -X POST https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token \
  -d "client_id=<client_id>" \
  -d "client_secret=<client_secret>" \
  -d "refresh_token=<refresh_token>" \
  -d "grant_type=refresh_token"
# → get access_token from response

# 3. Call Calendar API directly
curl -s "https://www.googleapis.com/calendar/v3/calendars/netanelab%40monday.com/events?timeMin=<ISO>&timeMax=<ISO>&singleEvents=true&orderBy=startTime&maxResults=10" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ACCESS_TOKEN"

# 4. List all calendars
curl -s "https://www.googleapis.com/calendar/v3/users/me/calendarList" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ACCESS_TOKEN"

Note: ~/.config/gws/credentials.json (gog default path) has a stale/broken token. Always use /opt/ocana/openclaw/.gog/credentials.json.

Verification Checklist

• [ ] Owner shared calendar with agent email
• [ ] Permission is "Make changes to events" (not read-only)
• [ ] Agent ran gog auth add for owner's account
• [ ] gog auth list shows owner's account with calendar service
• [ ] Test event created successfully in owner's calendar
• [ ] Test event deleted after verification
• [ ] All calendar commands use GOG_ACCOUNT=owner@company.com

Cost Tips

• Cheap: This is a one-time setup — very low ongoing cost
• Small model OK: All steps are procedural — any model can follow them
• Avoid: Don't re-authenticate repeatedly — tokens last a long time if not revoked
• Batch: Add all needed services in one gog auth add call (gmail,calendar,drive,contacts) instead of separate calls

Email & Workspace Orientation (Merged from openclaw-email-orientation skill)

The Core Concept: Two Separate Accounts

These are separate. Having an agent email does NOT automatically give access to the owner's email or calendar. Owner must explicitly share, and agent must explicitly authenticate.

Key Files

Security: Never print the contents of these files in chat. Path is fine; content is not.

Using gog

# One-time: load OAuth credentials
gog auth credentials /path/to/client_secret.json

# Add an owner account (opens browser for OAuth)
gog auth add owner@company.com --services gmail,calendar,drive,contacts,sheets,docs

# Verify
gog auth list

# Always use GOG_ACCOUNT= in all commands
GOG_ACCOUNT=owner@company.com gog gmail search 'is:unread' --max 10
GOG_ACCOUNT=owner@company.com gog calendar events primary \
  --from "2026-04-01T09:00:00Z" --to "2026-04-01T18:00:00Z"
GOG_ACCOUNT=owner@company.com gog gmail send \
  --to "recipient@example.com" --subject "Hello" --body "Message text"

Troubleshooting Email/Calendar Access

Work through in order:

1. Two accounts? — Is the question about agent email or owner email?
2. gog installed? — which gog — if missing, check PATH
3. Account added? — gog auth list — does owner's account appear?
4. Write scope? — OAuth must include calendar write scope, not read-only
5. GOG_ACCOUNT set? — All commands must include GOG_ACCOUNT=owner@company.com
6. Permission level? — Must be "Make changes to events", not "See all event details"

"Insufficient permissions" error → Owner re-shares calendar with write permission (Step 1 above).

"Token expired" error:

gog auth remove owner@company.com
gog auth add owner@company.com --services gmail,calendar,drive,contacts
