## Setup

### Admin Setup (one-time)

1. In the [Google Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com/), select the project that should own the OAuth client.
2. Navigate to **APIs & Services > Library**, search for **People API**, and click **Enable**.
3. Navigate to **Google Auth Platform > Branding** and configure the OAuth Consent Screen (App name, support email, audience, contact email).
4. Under **Data Access > Add or Remove Scopes**, add (one per line):

```
directory.readonly
userinfo.profile
contacts.readonly
```

5. Navigate to **Google Auth Platform > Clients > Create Client** and select **Web application**.
6. Under **Authorized redirect URIs**, click **+ Add URI** and enter:

{% hint style="warning" %}
Use exactly this redirect URI — Google will reject the OAuth flow if it doesn't match.
{% endhint %}

```
https://api.natoma.app/mcp/server/callback
```

7. Click **Create** and copy the **Client ID** and **Client Secret**.

In Natoma, an admin adds **Google People** under **Apps** and enters the **Client ID** and **Client Secret**.
