## What This Tool Does
Connect your AI agent to Google Contacts for complete contact management capabilities. Search contacts by name, email, or phone number to quickly find the people you need, list recent contacts for context during conversations, and create new contacts directly from agent interactions. Update existing contact information including phone numbers, emails, addresses, company details, and notes. This tool is perfect for agents that support customer outreach, sales engagement, scheduling coordination, and customer service workflows. Keep your contact database synchronized with your CRM, auto-fill customer details during support interactions, build outreach lists from existing contacts, and maintain a clean, organized address book. All operations use the Google People API with your connected Google account credentials.

## Product Instructions
### Google Contacts

#### Overview
Manage your Google Contacts: list, search, create, update, and delete contacts. Supports both simple flat-field input and canonical Google People API format for maximum flexibility.

#### Actions

##### list_contacts
List all contacts sorted by first name ascending.

**Required fields:** none (just the action)

**Optional fields:**
- `page_size` (integer, 1-200, default 25) - number of contacts per page
- `page_token` (string) - pagination token from a previous response

**Example:**
```json
{
  "action": "list_contacts",
  "page_size": 50
}
```

**Response includes:** array of contacts (each with resource_name, etag, name, first_name, last_name, emails, phones, company, job_title, notes, addresses) and `next_page_token` if more results exist.

---

##### search_contacts
Search contacts by name, email, phone, or other text.

**Required fields:**
- `query` (string) - search text to match against contact fields

**Optional fields:**
- `page_size` (integer, 1-200, default 25)
- `page_token` (string)

**Example:**
```json
{
  "action": "search_contacts",
  "query": "Jane Smith",
  "page_size": 10
}
```

---

##### get_contact
Retrieve a single contact by resource name.

**Required fields:**
- `resource_name` (string) - contact identifier, e.g. `"people/c1234567890"`

**Example:**
```json
{
  "action": "get_contact",
  "resource_name": "people/c1234567890"
}
```

**Note:** You can pass the ID with or without the `people/` prefix; it will be normalized automatically.

---

##### create_contact
Create a new contact. At least one field must be provided in the `contact` object.

**Required fields:**
- `contact` (object) - contact data with at least one field

**Contact object fields (all optional, but at least one required):**
- `first_name` (string) - given name
- `last_name` (string) - family name
- `full_name` (string) - display name (used to derive first/last if those are not provided; splits on spaces)
- `email` (string) - primary email address
- `phone` (string) - primary phone number
- `company` (string) - organization name
- `job_title` (string) - job title
- `notes` (string) - free-text notes
- `address` (object) - with fields: `street_address`, `city`, `region`, `postal_code`, `country`

**Example:**
```json
{
  "action": "create_contact",
  "contact": {
    "first_name": "Jane",
    "last_name": "Smith",
    "email": "jane.smith@example.com",
    "phone": "+1-555-867-5309",
    "company": "Acme Corp",
    "job_title": "VP of Engineering",
    "notes": "Met at the 2026 tech conference",
    "address": {
      "street_address": "123 Main St",
      "city": "San Francisco",
      "region": "CA",
      "postal_code": "94105",
      "country": "US"
    }
  }
}
```

**Alternative input formats:** The contact object also accepts canonical Google People API format (e.g. `names`, `emailAddresses`, `phoneNumbers` arrays) and plural aliases (`emails`, `phones` arrays). The first element of each array is used.

---

##### update_contact
Update an existing contact. Only the fields you include in the `contact` object will be modified; other fields remain unchanged.

**Required fields:**
- `resource_name` (string) - the contact to update, e.g. `"people/c1234567890"`
- `contact` (object) - fields to update (same structure as create_contact)

**Optional fields:**
- `etag` (string) - ETag for optimistic concurrency. If omitted, the tool fetches the current ETag automatically.

**Example:**
```json
{
  "action": "update_contact",
  "resource_name": "people/c1234567890",
  "contact": {
    "job_title": "CTO",
    "company": "New Ventures Inc"
  }
}
```

**Note:** The update mask is automatically derived from the fields you provide. For example, providing `email` updates only the emailAddresses field on the contact.

---

##### delete_contact
Permanently delete a contact.

**Required fields:**
- `resource_name` (string) - the contact to delete, e.g. `"people/c1234567890"`

**Example:**
```json
{
  "action": "delete_contact",
  "resource_name": "people/c1234567890"
}
```

**Warning:** This action is irreversible. The contact is permanently removed.

---

#### Common Workflows

##### 1. Find and Update a Contact
Search for a contact, then update their information:
1. `search_contacts` with `query: "Jane Smith"` to find the contact
2. Note the `resource_name` from the result (e.g. `"people/c1234567890"`)
3. `update_contact` with that `resource_name` and the fields to change

##### 2. Export a Contact List
Retrieve all contacts with pagination:
1. `list_contacts` with `page_size: 200` (maximum per page)
2. If `next_page_token` is returned, call `list_contacts` again with that `page_token`
3. Repeat until no `next_page_token` is returned

##### 3. Add a New Contact and Verify
Create a contact and confirm it was saved:
1. `create_contact` with the contact details
2. Note the `resource_name` from the response
3. `get_contact` with that `resource_name` to verify all fields were saved correctly

#### Important Notes
- **Pagination:** Maximum `page_size` is 200. Default is 25. Use `next_page_token` to retrieve additional pages.
- **Resource names:** Contact identifiers look like `"people/c1234567890"`. You can pass just the ID portion (e.g. `"c1234567890"`) and it will be normalized.
- **Name derivation:** If you provide `full_name` without `first_name`/`last_name`, the tool splits on spaces: first word becomes given name, remaining words become family name.
- **Update behavior:** Only fields included in the `contact` object are updated. Omitted fields are not cleared.
- **ETag handling:** For updates, the ETag is fetched automatically if not provided. You can pass the `etag` from a previous get/list response for optimistic concurrency control.
- **Single values only:** The flat input format (`email`, `phone`) stores one value per field. If you need multiple emails or phones, use the People API array format (`emailAddresses`, `phoneNumbers`), though only the first entry in each array is used.
- **Sorting:** `list_contacts` always returns results sorted by first name ascending.
- **Delete is permanent:** There is no undo for `delete_contact`.

## Live Schema And Examples
Use the compact schema above for ordinary calls. Before a new production integration, or whenever parameters, enum values, nested objects, outputs, or examples are unclear, fetch live details first.

- Exact schema: call `agentpmt-tool-search-and-execution` with `action: "get_schema"`, and `tool_id: "google-contacts"`.
- Detailed examples: call `agentpmt-tool-search-and-execution` with `action: "get_instructions"` and `tool_id: "google-contacts"`, or call this product with `action: "get_instructions"` when the product tool is already selected.
- Treat returned live schema and instructions as more specific than this generated summary.

MCP schema lookup through the main AgentPMT MCP server:

```json
{
  "method": "tools/call",

```json
{
  "action": "get_instructions",
  "tool_id": "google-contacts"
}
```

## Response Handling
- Treat the returned JSON as the source of truth for this tool call.
- If the response includes warnings or correction targets, apply them before retrying.
- If the response includes a `passed` or success-style boolean, use it as the workflow gate.
- If validation fails or the response shape is unclear, call `get_schema` or `get_instructions` before retrying.
- If `create_contact` fails, preserve the request parameters and retry only after fixing schema, auth, or payment errors.

## Security
- Do not place account secrets, wallet private keys, mnemonics, signatures, or payment headers in prompts or logs.
- Keep tool inputs scoped to the minimum content needed for the task.
- Use the setup skills for credential handling; this product skill only defines product-specific behavior.
