File contents

Google Docs from Markdown

Create Google Docs from Markdown files using the workflow: Markdown → DOCX → Drive Upload → Google Docs.

Why This Skill Exists

gog docs CLI does NOT support writing/updating content to Google Docs. It only supports:

create - Create empty doc
export - Export to file
cat - Read content
copy - Copy existing doc

This skill provides the missing workflow to create Google Docs WITH content from Markdown.

Prerequisites

gog CLI authenticated with Google account
pandoc binary (auto-downloaded on first use if not available)

Installation Note

After installing from ClawHub, fix the script permissions:

chmod +x ~/.openclaw/workspace/skills/gdocs-markdown/scripts/gdocs-create.sh

Usage

Quick Create

# Create Google Doc from markdown file
gdocs-create.sh /path/to/file.md "Tiêu đề Document"

Manual Workflow

If you need more control, follow these steps:

Ensure pandoc is available:

# Auto-downloaded to /tmp/pandoc-3.1.11/bin/pandoc on first use
# Or use system pandoc if available

Convert Markdown to DOCX:

/tmp/pandoc-3.1.11/bin/pandoc input.md -o output.docx

Upload to Drive (auto-converts to Google Docs):
```
gog drive upload output.docx
```
Result: Google Drive returns a link to the converted Google Doc

Script Reference

See scripts/gdocs-create.sh for the helper script that automates this workflow.

Example

# Create a report from markdown
echo "# Báo Cáo\n\nNội dung..." > /tmp/report.md
gdocs-create.sh /tmp/report.md "Báo Cáo Tháng 2"

# Output: https://docs.google.com/document/d/xxxxx/edit

Notes

Google Drive automatically converts DOCX to Google Docs format on upload
The resulting document is fully editable in Google Docs
Original DOCX file remains in Drive but can be deleted if only Google Docs version is needed
