recipe-send-team-announcement — Claude skill: Gmail plus Chat

Sends a team announcement through two channels at once: an email via Gmail and a post in a Google Chat space. Useful when an update needs to land where people actually look.

What recipe-send-team-announcement does

The skill is a two-step recipe. First it sends mail with gws gmail +send, taking a recipient, subject and body. Then the same announcement goes to Google Chat through gws chat +send, aimed at a space like spaces/TEAM_SPACE.

There are no scripts inside, just the command sequence. Two skills have to be loaded first: gws-gmail and gws-chat. You also need the gws binary on your machine, or the commands won't run.

Worth installing if you push announcements to a team often and are tired of doing it twice by hand. With a single channel or one-off messages, skip it and just write the email.

What it helps with

  • send one announcement by email and chat in a single pass
  • mirror an update into Google Chat so nobody misses it
  • set the subject and body inline in the command
  • post into a specific space such as spaces/TEAM_SPACE

Example prompts for the agent

  • Send the team announcement through Gmail and Google Chat
  • Email the policy update to [email protected] and post it in the team space
  • Post in the team space that the policy email just went out
