# Send Google Contacts to your agent
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
## Fast path
- Download the package from Yavira.
- Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
- Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
## Suggested prompts
### New install

```text
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
```
### Upgrade existing

```text
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.

## Documentation

### Google Contacts

Access the Google People API with managed OAuth authentication. Manage contacts, contact groups, and search your address book.

### Quick Start

# List contacts
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/google-contacts/v1/people/me/connections?personFields=names,emailAddresses,phoneNumbers&pageSize=10')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

### Base URL

https://gateway.maton.ai/google-contacts/{native-api-path}

Replace {native-api-path} with the actual Google People API endpoint path. The gateway proxies requests to people.googleapis.com and automatically injects your OAuth token.

### Authentication

All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY

Environment Variable: Set your API key as MATON_API_KEY:

export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"

### Getting Your API Key

Sign in or create an account at maton.ai
Go to maton.ai/settings
Copy your API key

### Connection Management

Manage your Google Contacts OAuth connections at https://ctrl.maton.ai.

### List Connections

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections?app=google-contacts&status=ACTIVE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

### Create Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({'app': 'google-contacts'}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections', data=data, method='POST')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

### Get Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Response:

{
  "connection": {
    "connection_id": "21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80",
    "status": "ACTIVE",
    "creation_time": "2025-12-08T07:20:53.488460Z",
    "last_updated_time": "2026-01-31T20:03:32.593153Z",
    "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
    "app": "google-contacts",
    "metadata": {}
  }
}

Open the returned url in a browser to complete OAuth authorization.

### Delete Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}', method='DELETE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

### Specifying Connection

If you have multiple Google Contacts connections, specify which one to use with the Maton-Connection header:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/google-contacts/v1/people/me/connections?personFields=names&pageSize=10')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', '21fd90f9-5935-43cd-b6c8-bde9d915ca80')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

If omitted, the gateway uses the default (oldest) active connection.

    params={
        'personFields': 'names,emailAddresses,phoneNumbers',
        'pageSize': 50
    }
)
data = response.json()

### Notes

Resource names for contacts follow the pattern people/c{id} (e.g., people/c1234567890)
Resource names for contact groups follow the pattern contactGroups/{id} (e.g., contactGroups/abc123)
System contact groups include: starred, friends, family, coworkers, myContacts, all, blocked
The personFields parameter is required for most read operations
When updating contacts, include the etag to prevent overwriting concurrent changes
Mutate requests for the same user should be sent sequentially to avoid increased latency and failures
IMPORTANT: When using curl commands, use curl -g when URLs contain brackets to disable glob parsing
IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to jq or other commands, environment variables like $MATON_API_KEY may not expand correctly in some shell environments

### Error Handling

StatusMeaning400Missing Google Contacts connection or invalid request401Invalid or missing Maton API key403Permission denied (check OAuth scopes)404Contact or group not found429Rate limited4xx/5xxPassthrough error from Google People API

### Troubleshooting: API Key Issues

Check that the MATON_API_KEY environment variable is set:

echo $MATON_API_KEY

Verify the API key is valid by listing connections:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

### Troubleshooting: Invalid App Name

Ensure your URL path starts with google-contacts. For example:

Correct: https://gateway.maton.ai/google-contacts/v1/people/me/connections
Incorrect: https://gateway.maton.ai/v1/people/me/connections
