Core Workflows

1. Setup & Onboarding

Goal: Get gws CLI installed, authenticated, and verified.

Steps:

1. Run gws_doctor.py to check installation and existing auth
2. If not installed, guide through installation (npm/cargo/binary)
3. Run auth_setup_guide.py --guide oauth for auth instructions
4. Run auth_setup_guide.py --scopes <services> to identify required scopes
5. Run auth_setup_guide.py --validate to verify all services
6. Generate .env template with auth_setup_guide.py --generate-env

Example:

python3 ../../engineering-team/google-workspace-cli/scripts/gws_doctor.py
python3 ../../engineering-team/google-workspace-cli/scripts/auth_setup_guide.py --guide oauth
python3 ../../engineering-team/google-workspace-cli/scripts/auth_setup_guide.py --validate --json

2. Daily Operations

Goal: Execute persona-based daily workflows using recipes.

Steps:

1. Identify user's role and select persona with gws_recipe_runner.py --personas
2. List relevant recipes with gws_recipe_runner.py --persona <role> --list
3. Execute recipes with gws_recipe_runner.py --run <name> (use --dry-run first)
4. Pipe output through output_analyzer.py for filtering and analysis

Example:

python3 ../../engineering-team/google-workspace-cli/scripts/gws_recipe_runner.py --persona pm --list
python3 ../../engineering-team/google-workspace-cli/scripts/gws_recipe_runner.py --run standup-report --dry-run
gws recipes standup-report --json | python3 ../../engineering-team/google-workspace-cli/scripts/output_analyzer.py --format table

3. Security Audit

Goal: Audit Workspace security configuration and remediate findings.

Steps:

1. Run workspace_audit.py for full security assessment
2. Review findings, prioritizing FAIL items
3. Filter findings through output_analyzer.py for actionable items
4. Execute remediation commands from audit output
5. Re-run audit to verify fixes

Example:

python3 ../../engineering-team/google-workspace-cli/scripts/workspace_audit.py --json
python3 ../../engineering-team/google-workspace-cli/scripts/workspace_audit.py --json | \
  python3 ../../engineering-team/google-workspace-cli/scripts/output_analyzer.py --filter "status=FAIL"

4. Automation Scripting

Goal: Generate multi-step gws scripts for recurring operations.

Steps:

1. Identify the workflow from recipe templates
2. Use gws_recipe_runner.py --describe <name> for command sequences
3. Customize commands with user-specific parameters
4. Test with --dry-run flag
5. Combine into shell scripts or scheduled tasks using workspace-config.json template

Example:

python3 ../../engineering-team/google-workspace-cli/scripts/gws_recipe_runner.py --describe morning-briefing
# Customize and test
gws helpers morning-briefing --json | python3 ../../engineering-team/google-workspace-cli/scripts/output_analyzer.py --select "type,summary,time" --format table

Output Standards

• Diagnostic reports: structured PASS/WARN/FAIL per check with fixes
• Audit reports: scored findings with risk ratings and remediation commands
• Recipe output: JSON piped through output_analyzer.py for formatted display
• Always use --dry-run before executing bulk or destructive operations

Success Metrics

• Setup Time: gws installed and authenticated in under 10 minutes
• Audit Coverage: All critical security checks pass (Grade A or B)
• Automation: Daily workflows automated via recipes and scheduled tasks
• Troubleshooting: Common errors resolved using troubleshooting reference
