Get fresh indexes from read_document_text first; every delete shifts all late… - `logout` — Revokes the stored token at Google (oauth2.googleapis.com/revoke) and deletes the local credentials file. Tokens supplied via env variables are NOT touched — remove them from the MCP client config manually; envTokenStillSet in the respon… - `manage_comment` — Manages comment threads via the Drive API. action=create adds a NEW comment (needs content; optional quoted_text cites a passage — the API cannot anchor a new comment to a live range, that anchor format is not public, so it appears at do… - `start_login` — First step of connecting from the chat, without editing config files or restarting the client. Returns authorizeUrl — show it to the user as a clickable link and ask them to open it in the browser ON THIS MACHINE, pick the Google account… - `style_paragraph` — Applies paragraph formatting to every paragraph overlapping [start_index, end_index): named_style (normal_text, title, subtitle, heading_1..heading_6 — the way to make headings), alignment (start/center/end/justified), line_spacing (100 … - `auth_status` — Shows whether this server is connected to Google: token presence and source (env variables or a stored in-chat login), expiry, the Google account email, granted vs missing OAuth scopes, where the credentials file lives and where the OAut… - `get_document` — Returns the raw Docs API document: title, documentId, revisionId, per-tab body with every structural element's startIndex/endIndex, textRun styles, tables, lists, inlineObjects (image ids for replace_image), headers/footers (their segmen… - `list_comments` — Lists the document's comment threads via the Drive API: for each comment its id, content, author displayName, createdTime/modifiedTime, resolved flag, the quoted document text it anchors to (quotedFileContent) and its replies (with their… - `list_tabs` — Returns the document's tab tree without content: tabId, title, position index and nested childTabs. Use the tabId values to target a specific tab in read_document_text and every editing tool.
