Preview a Report-to-Google-Slides Request With Codex and gws

Use the Google Workspace CLI's Slides skill to preview a native presentation workflow and validate the report's title and mock slide outline.

Setup for Codex

Codex with the open-source Google Workspace CLI skill. The GoogleWorkspace repository describes gws as a separate project without official Google product support. Live calls need authorized Workspace API access.

  1. Install gws using npm install -g @googleworkspace/cli or a versioned release from the linked repository.
  2. Install the gws-slides and gws-shared skill folders into Codex, or load both files from a pinned clone.
  3. Use the documented global --dry-run flag for the practice request. Run live API actions only on an authorized test destination.

Example task

Use a fictional report with April 30 and May 40. Outline an April–May summary slide and preview a Slides presentations create request using title Demo Report and the CLI's --dry-run option. Check the source figures separately.

Expected result

The preview request contains the title Demo Report and does not create a presentation. The draft outline preserves both figures and the total of 70.

Frequently asked question

Can the Slides skill validate a request without creating a Drive file?

Yes. Use the gws --dry-run flag and check the preview data first. A separate authorized live request is required to create a file.
