Set up and operate the Gmail/Calendar/Contacts connector and the open-loop engine: who is waiting on the user, what they promised, and the context needed to respond. Covers painless BYO OAuth setup (exactly two user interactions), the daily `gbrain waiting` digest, loop closing/muting, and troubleshooting via the typed error catalog.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Google Loops — Setup and Daily Operation

The connector ingests Gmail threads, calendar events, and contacts into the
brain and maintains the open-loop record behind `gbrain waiting`. Full
references: `docs/guides/google-connect.md` (setup + every error and its
fix) and `docs/guides/open-loops.md` (how detection works).

## Contract for the harness (read first)

1. **Relay `[SHOW USER]` blocks verbatim.** Setup commands print fenced
   `[SHOW USER] ... [/SHOW USER]` blocks — numbered steps with deep links.
   Pass them to the user unchanged (paraphrasing loses load-bearing detail
   like "Desktop app, NOT Web application"). Batch everything into ONE
   message per block.
2. **The whole setup is exactly two user interactions.** (1) The Google
   Cloud checklist + the user hands back the downloaded client JSON.
   (2) The user clicks one consent URL. If you find yourself asking a third
   question, re-read the block you skipped.
3. **Never put secrets in argv or chat when avoidable.** When the user drops
   `client_secret_*.json` into chat, save it to a file (mode 0600) and pass
   the path: `gbrain google connect --client-json <path>`. Env

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add garrytan/gbrain/google-loops@sha256:cc99f595216d9005

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
