    @efinebloom We are looking into that issue. If you have a gmail account you can use that option.

    Giving an AI agent your passwords is insane. Someone built the open-source alternative. The problem sits under every agent demo you've seen. An agent that reads your email, updates your Notion, and files your invoices needs your logins, and that handover of raw passwords and API keys is where most people close the tab. OpenConnector puts an open-source gateway between the agent and your apps. Credentials stay locked behind the runtime while the agent gets a catalog of ready-made actions for over 800 services, from Gmail and Slack to Notion and Airtable. The agent asks for an action, the gateway runs it against the real service, and the secrets never touch the model's context. The controls are the part I like. You decide which actions an agent can touch through allow and block policies, scope access per connection, hand out runtime tokens instead of real keys, and read redacted logs of every run. It speaks MCP out of the box, ships thousands of prebuilt actions in TypeScript, and self-hosts with one Docker command or a push to Cloudflare. The project is young, and the whole stack, from the provider catalog to the action executors, sits open for anyone to inspect. Agents are getting hands. A gateway like this decides what those hands are allowed to hold, and I'd rather that layer be open source than a black box.

    Can you believe that one seemingly simple link server to gmail feature/button necessitates a battery of over 172 tests to make sure it's properly secure when you write these in lower level languages & PHP WASM? I refuse to compromise or simplify with API, that's how mistakes happen

    @RhysSullivan Google has this stupid issue where they won’t let you take a handle (a handle I have EVERYWHERE) because it was created in the past. And it doesn’t matter if that handle is not in use anymore, YOU STILL CAN’T TAKE IT @Google @gmail What kinda bs is this

    @clairevo @openclaw I used to do the same - all my claws have their own identities. I kept running into a series of Gog issues for Gmail connectors and just could not resolve. So thought of going down the eve route.

    Founders defend their calendar like a moat and bleed three hours a day into their inbox. Built Dawnbrief to fix that — it watches Gmail overnight, drafts in your voice, chases stalled threads, books meetings. Sixty-second review, nothing leaves without your tap. Coming soon.

    @gmail hi hello, real operator here. Can you fix the error in Gmail mobile on Pixel 10 where I can't respond to or find the current draft is in the queue. I continually get the same error over and over again that I can't have multiple drafts, yet there is no draft visible -mgmt

    Fair callout, most of what we've posted has centered one company's AI product. Not because it's uniquely the problem. Dec 2025: a flaw called GeminiJack let attackers leak Gmail, Calendar, and Docs data through Gemini, zero clicks needed.

    @FabianB58246501 That's a great development sir, kudos to the new registrar and all the staff entirely. Please changing of Gmail for those who made error during initial registration of UTME and monopolizing DE registration to only Headquarters and Zone centres are also issues. May God help you.

    One malicious link made Copilot silently drain connected Gmail and Drive accounts. Microsoft took months to fix it, server side, invisible to every customer. The lesson is not that AI is unsafe. It is that you cannot audit a black box you rent.

    @petergyang You're just removing the ability to login with Google. The provider still has your Gmail address and name. Have your prompt look at the scope.

    Kenyan banks use outdated methods of deploying changes, hence the numerous texts we get for downtime. When did you ever get a notification from PayPal or even GMail notifying you of an hour-long outage as they deploy changes to their systems?

    @kevvOH_ It's time we went passowrdless. Sign up page, password recovery, login with passwords are the major security risk, especially when dealing with your own domain. Make it passowrdless, export the risk to accessing Gmail or the Microsoft blue team for login OTPs

  • PrajwalTomar_

    Matt Shumer just got a Gmail banned because an agent was using it. This one made me pause, because honestly I'm guilty of the same thing. My bots run on the same Gmail my clients reply to. It works great right up until the day it doesn't, and xAI's own docs are clear that every bot on your account shares the same logins. One eager bot, one weird email, and it's not the bot that gets flagged, it's the domain. So that's my fix for this week: the bots get their own mailbox, and the inbox clients reply to goes back to being mine. Everyone shows the agent demo. Nobody shows the blast radius.

    @bot the UI is great and it seems it can handle tasks. But in reality it is having trouble to do simple task like attaching a pdf and send via Gmail. And when it fails it just drops the task.

    Open Mousebot runs a whole AI agent team on the Claude plan you already have. Grokbot launched behind a waitlist. My trial tokens died in 20 minutes. One day later, a builder shipped this free open-source version. No waitlist. No new plan. It plugs into the Claude, Codex, or Grok tools you're already logged into. → Each agent gets its own model picker: fast brain for research, best brain for writing → It inherits the skills you already taught Claude. Zero re-setup. → Connects to 500+ apps: Gmail, Slack, Notion, one click → Everything stays in a folder on YOUR machine Honest catch: agents can't talk to each other yet, and computer use is slow. But two teams shipped the same "agent team" design one day apart. That's where this is heading. Save this. You'll want it later.

    First thing was have it ho through my Gmail and have it clean up my 40k emails, now it maintains my email every day, I also have it take long form video content and cut it down and edit it to make 9:16 short form content for YouTube. I would suggest just brain dump on Grok Bot, once it knows you, it will start making suggestions yo automate.

    Email platforms have gotten 10 times stricter in Al detection which hampers deliberately and likelihood of flags esp Gmail. True but they got stricter because it's slowing ads spend not AI. My ads spend for awareness campaign is down by over 60% YOY because of email channel.

    I'm sick of Google's constant privacy grab. Signing into gmail now means auto signin into Chrome. And they make your life miserable if you try to prevent it. Also, NO I WILL NOT TAKE A SELFIE. This denigrating practice has to stop. If this ever becomes mandatory I will switch.

    @JimHawk67327371 Due to the magic of the Internet, I now cannot log into my Gmail account unless I prove I'm human and select all the squares containing blah blah blah. It's driving me insane, which of course, it's designed to do. I've had this acct forever, so why is this required to sign in all of a sudden? Help!

    This is where clients and servers come in. Your phone or laptop is the client. It uses software like your browser to request information. The server is the host running software that provides the service you're requesting. Open Gmail? Your device requests your emails. 2/3

    @iamSoftVina This issue likely stems from Gmail's aggressive spam filters or altered inbox rules triggered by the bulk unsubscribe action, which can temporarily flag or block legitimate senders as the account's email behavior profile shifts. - Recommended steps include checking spam/promotions tabs, adding key senders to contacts, reviewing filters and blocked lists in Gmail settings, and testing by requesting new verification emails from the affected companies. - grok Try and see
