# Google Docs

> The Google Docs tool gives your AI agents the ability to autonomously create, read, and edit documents. Instead of just generating text in a chat window, your apps can format long-form content and save it directly into living, shareable documents.

## Why Use Google Docs in Architect?

Copy-pasting AI output is a thing of the past. With vibe coding, you can describe complex documentation workflows, and Architect will handle the formatting and file creation. Whether you need automated reports, dynamic proposals, or structured meeting minutes, your agent can write it straight into a Google Doc.

* **Automated Reporting:** Build agents that pull data from various sources and compile it into beautifully formatted weekly reports.
* **Content Generation:** Create SEO apps that research topics and draft complete, structured blog posts directly into your workspace.
* **Document Review:** Have your agent read an existing Google Doc, check it against your brand guidelines, and append a summary of suggested edits.

## Vibe Coding Examples

Try these natural language prompts to build automated document-generation agents:

<CardGroup cols={1}>
  <Card title="Example 1: The Proposal Writer">
    "Build a sales proposal app. I will provide a client's name and our proposed features. Expand this into a professional, 3-page sales proposal, format it with clear headings, and use the Google Docs tool to create a new document named '\[Client Name] - Proposal'."
  </Card>

  <Card title="Example 2: The Meeting Transcriber">
    "Create a meeting minutes agent. Take a raw meeting transcript, extract the key decisions and action items, and create a new Google Doc formatted with bullet points and bold text for assigned tasks."
  </Card>

  <Card title="Example 3: Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) Bot">
    "I want an SOP generator. When I describe a workflow in plain English, translate it into a formal step-by-step SOP document, and use the Google Docs tool to save it into my team's shared workspace."
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

<Tip>
  Vibe code an end-to-end research workflow! Tell Architect to use the Arxiv tool to find 5 papers on a topic, summarize them, and use the Google Docs tool to compile a polished literature review.
