Feature Request: Built-in Google Sheets connector (MCP server available)

Feature Request: Native Google Sheets Connector

Summary

Add a built-in Google Sheets connector to Claude (Desktop and Web), similar to the existing Gmail and Google Calendar connectors.

Why this matters

Google Sheets is one of the most universally used productivity tools. Users constantly ask Claude to help with spreadsheet tasks — data entry, formatting, calculations, report generation — but without a native connector they have to manually copy-paste data in and out. A native connector would make Claude dramatically more useful for real-world data workflows.

A community implementation already exists

I've built and open-sourced a production-ready MCP server for Google Sheets that could serve as a foundation or reference:

Repository: https://github.com/geosta-engineer/mcp-google-sheets

What it covers (32 tools across 5 modules):

• Spreadsheets — create, list, get metadata, delete, share
• Sheet tabs — add, rename, duplicate, copy between files
• Values — read ranges, batch read, write, batch write, append rows, clear, find & replace
• Formatting — bold/italic/colors, merge cells, freeze rows/cols, clear formatting
• Rows & Columns — insert, delete, resize, auto-resize, add charts

Technical details:

• Python + FastMCP (same pattern as other community MCP servers)
• OAuth2 / Service Account / ADC authentication (flexible)
• Modular, well-documented codebase — easy to extend
• MIT licensed, ready to adapt

Request

Either:

1. Consider adopting/adapting this community server as an official built-in Claude connector, or
2. Provide guidance on the path for community MCP servers to become official connectors

I'm happy to iterate on the implementation, add features, or collaborate with the Anthropic team in any way that would help get this into the hands of Claude users.
