Google Contacts tools for your AI agents
6 tools are ready to call through Elaichi's MCP endpoint the moment you connect Google Contacts, governed by the same roles, restrictions, and audit log as everything else in Elaichi.
No tools match your search.
Questions, answered
How do I connect Google Contacts to Claude?
Two steps. First, connect Google Contacts in Elaichi, which opens the normal Google sign-in screen where you choose your account and approve access, with no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Then in Claude, open Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp as the endpoint. Claude signs you into Elaichi and Google Contacts is available in the conversation.
Does Google Contacts work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?
Yes. Once Google Contacts is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, any MCP client, and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Google Contacts once and every client you use picks it up.
What can an AI agent actually do with my Google Contacts data?
Through Elaichi, an AI agent can search your Google Contacts by name, company, or email, open a single contact to read their phone number, address, and job title, and list the people you have emailed but never saved. It can also delete a contact you point it at and confirm which Google account it is signed in as. It cannot create or edit contacts through this connector.
Does connecting Google Contacts give the AI access to everyone's address book?
No. Access follows the person who signed in, so the AI sees only the Google Contacts that person can already see in their own Google account. Elaichi can narrow that access further, for example by restricting the option to delete contacts, but it can never widen it beyond what Google itself allows that person.
Can I stop an agent from deleting contacts in Google Contacts?
Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can allow searching and reading Google Contacts while restricting deletion entirely. A restricted action still appears in Elaichi's tool search, flagged as restricted, but Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, or any other client cannot run it, whatever the prompt says.
What happens to a Google Contacts connection when someone leaves?
Offboarding that person in Elaichi ends their access to Google Contacts at once, in every client they had connected. If they shared a Google Contacts connection with a team, it keeps working for everyone else. Disconnecting Google Contacts once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, and every other client at the same time.
Does the Google Contacts MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?
Yes. Google Contacts is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Microsoft Copilot, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.
Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for Google Contacts?
Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Google Contacts. Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every Google Contacts call.
How is Elaichi different from Composio for Google Contacts?
Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to Google Contacts: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
