Cursor agents can now read and write your Gmail, Drive, and Calendar
New plugins give Cursor agents live access to five Google apps, Gmail to Sheets — a real unlock, and a real blast radius. What to build, and how to scope it.

Read, write, act across five Google apps
The official plugins cover Drive (search and organize files), Gmail (read, draft, send, label threads), and Calendar (read schedules, book time); Cursor's launch post adds Docs and Sheets. One agent run can pull a spec from Drive, flag the matching Gmail thread, write results to a Sheet, and book a standup — without leaving the editor.
Install it in a few clicks
Add the plugins from the Customize page in Cursor or the Cursor Marketplace, then authorize your Google account. There's no new plan tier called out — it's a plugin install that's live now, with per-app OAuth scopes you approve at connect time.
Build this weekend: an inbox-and-calendar agent
This makes an assistant that lives in your repo practical: triage unread mail, draft replies against the code you're shipping, find free time, and drop meeting notes in Drive — in a single agent run. The glue work that used to need Zapier plus a custom MCP server.
The catch: your agent's blast radius just grew
Read/write access to Gmail and Drive means a prompt-injected agent can now touch your company inbox, not just your codebase. Decide which Google account each agent may write to before enabling this, and scope each plugin to the narrowest surface you actually need.
