Gmail Tool

The Gmail Tool allows your agent to create and view messages from a linked email account.

Setup​

You will need to get an API key from Google here and enable the new Gmail API. Then, set the environment variables for GMAIL_CLIENT_EMAIL, and either GMAIL_PRIVATE_KEY, or GMAIL_KEYFILE.

To use the Gmail Tool you need to install the following official peer dependency:

I am writing to you in the hopes of rekindling our friendship and to discuss the possibility of collaborating on some research together. I know that we have had our differences in the past, but I believe that we can put them aside and work together for the greater good. I look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, [Parrot]'"
