Google Drive MCP Server

Filesystemstdio
Repository

A Model Context Protocol server for Google Drive that lets AI assistants list, search, and read files stored in Drive, with automatic export of Google Docs, Sheets, Slides, and Drawings to readable formats. Authenticates via OAuth 2.0 and exposes Drive files as MCP resources so agents can ground their answers in your documents without copying data into chat first.
