@loopstack/google-oauth-example
An example module for the Loopstack AI automation framework.
This module demonstrates how to build workflows that interact with Google Workspace APIs (Calendar, Gmail, Drive) using OAuth authentication. It includes two workflows: a structured calendar summary that fetches upcoming events, and an interactive chat agent powered by Claude that can use all 11 Google Workspace tools.
Workflows
Calendar Summary (google_calendar_summary)
A multi-step workflow that fetches and displays upcoming Google Calendar events. If the user is not authenticated, it launches the OAuth sub-workflow and retries automatically. Includes a custom GoogleCalendarFetchEventsTool that demonstrates building an OAuth-aware tool from scratch using OAuthTokenStore.
Inputs: calendarId (default: primary)
Flow:
start -> calendar_fetched -> endWith OAuth branching:
calendar_fetched -> (unauthorized via @Guard) -> awaiting_auth
|
auth_completed -> start (retry)Key patterns:
The workflow uses a custom tool to fetch calendar events, then checks for auth errors via @Guard:
@Transition({ to: 'calendar_fetched' })
async fetchEvents(state: CalendarSummaryState, ctx: WorkflowContext): Promise<CalendarSummaryState> {
const args = ctx.input.args as { calendarId: string };
const result = await this.googleCalendarFetchEvents.call({
calendarId: args.calendarId,
timeMin: this.now(),
timeMax: this.endOfWeek(),
});
return {
...state,
requiresAuthentication: result.data!.error === 'unauthorized',
events: result.data!.events,
};
}
@Transition({ from: 'calendar_fetched', to: 'awaiting_auth', priority: 10 })
@Guard('needsAuth')
async authRequired() {
const result = await this.orchestrator.queue(
{ provider: 'google', scopes: ['https://www.googleapis.com/auth/calendar.readonly'] },
{ workflowName: OAuthWorkflow.name, callback: { transition: 'authCompleted' } },
);
await this.documentStore.save(
LinkDocument,
{
label: 'Google authentication required',
workflowId: result.workflowId,
embed: true,
expanded: true,
},
{ id: `link_${result.workflowId}` },
);
}
needsAuth(state: CalendarSummaryState): boolean {
return !!state.requiresAuthentication;
}The auth callback uses wait: true with CallbackSchema and transitions back to start to retry:
@Transition({
from: 'awaiting_auth',
to: 'start',
wait: true,
schema: CallbackSchema,
})
async authCompleted(state: CalendarSummaryState, payload: { workflowId: string }): Promise<CalendarSummaryState> {
await this.documentStore.save(
LinkDocument,
{
status: 'success',
label: 'Google authentication completed',
workflowId: payload.workflowId,
embed: true,
expanded: false,
},
{ id: `link_${payload.workflowId}` },
);
return state;
}On success, the workflow renders a markdown summary using a template:
@Transition({ from: 'calendar_fetched', to: 'end' })
async displayResults(state: CalendarSummaryState): Promise<unknown> {
await this.documentStore.save(MarkdownDocument, {
markdown: this.render(__dirname + '/templates/calendarSummary.md', { events: state.events }),
});
return {};
}Tools used:
| Category | Tool | Used in workflow |
|---|---|---|
| Calendar | google_calendar_list_calendars | No |
| Calendar | google_calendar_fetch_events | No |
| Calendar | google_calendar_create_event | No |
| Calendar | Custom GoogleCalendarFetchEventsTool | Yes |
| Gmail | gmail_search_messages | No |
| Gmail | gmail_get_message | No |
| Gmail | gmail_send_message | No |
| Gmail | gmail_reply_to_message | No |
| Drive | google_drive_list_files | No |
| Drive | google_drive_get_file_metadata | No |
| Drive | google_drive_download_file | No |
| Drive | google_drive_upload_file | No |
Google Workspace Agent (google_workspace_agent)
An interactive chat agent that gives Claude access to all 11 Google Workspace tools. The agent can manage calendar events, search and send emails, browse and upload files to Drive, and handle OAuth automatically via the AuthenticateGoogleTask custom tool.
How it works:
- Sets up a hidden system message describing available Google Workspace capabilities
- Waits for user input via a
wait: truetransition - Sends the conversation to Claude with all 11 Google Workspace tools plus
authenticate_google - If
message.stopReason === 'tool_use', delegates tool calls viaLlmDelegateToolCallsTooland collects results withLlmUpdateToolResultTool - If a tool returns an auth error, the LLM calls
authenticate_googlewhich launches OAuth - Loops back to wait for the next user message
Agent loop pattern:
@InjectTool({
provider: 'claude',
model: 'claude-sonnet-4-6',
system: `You are a helpful Google Workspace assistant with access to Calendar, Gmail, and Drive tools.
When a tool returns an unauthorized error, use authenticate_google to let the user sign in,
then retry. Be concise and format results using markdown.`,
tools: [
'google_calendar_list_calendars',
'google_calendar_fetch_events',
'google_calendar_create_event',
'gmail_search_messages',
'gmail_get_message',
'gmail_send_message',
'gmail_reply_to_message',
'google_drive_list_files',
'google_drive_get_file_metadata',
'google_drive_download_file',
'google_drive_upload_file',
'authenticate_google',
],
})
llmGenerateText: LlmGenerateTextTool;
@InjectTool({ provider: 'claude' }) llmDelegateToolCalls: LlmDelegateToolCallsTool;
@Transition({ from: 'ready', to: 'prompt_executed' })
async llmTurn() {
const result: ToolResult<LlmGenerateTextResult> = await this.llmGenerateText.call();
this.llmResult = result.data;
}
@Transition({ from: 'prompt_executed', to: 'awaiting_tools', priority: 10 })
@Guard('hasToolCalls')
async executeToolCalls() {
const result: ToolResult<LlmDelegateResult> = await this.llmDelegateToolCalls.call({
message: this.llmResult!.message,
callback: { transition: 'toolResultReceived' },
});
this.delegateResult = result.data;
}
hasToolCalls(): boolean {
return this.llmResult?.message.stopReason === 'tool_use';
}This is the easiest way to interactively test every Google Workspace tool — just ask the agent to perform any operation.
Setup
Environment Variables
Create a Google OAuth App at https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials and configure:
GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=your-client-secret
GOOGLE_OAUTH_REDIRECT_URI=http://localhost:5173/oauth/callbackFor the Google Workspace Agent workflow, you also need an LLM API key:
ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your-anthropic-api-keyDependencies
