A fenced bash/python block in SKILL.md carries a natural-language imperative — "now run this", "execute the following command" — directing the agent to execute the fenced content. What looks like documentation becomes an executable payload the agent may run without ever asking you.

Used adversarially it removes the human-in-the-loop check before destructive or sensitive actions, turning a normally-gated agent into a fire-and-forget executor.

The one-time setup that makes Digital Marketing Pro persistent in Cowork by a team. Wires up the Cowork → Drive routing so brand profiles, campaign plans, audit reports, and run records survive past the end of the current Cowork session.
Cowork is the friendliest Anthropic surface for marketers — agency teams, in-house marketers, growth ops — who don't live in a terminal. The natural team workflow is "everyone uses Cowork; brand state and outputs live in our shared Drive". But DMP's filesystem layer was designed for local Claude Code (writes to ~/.claude-marketing/ on the host machine). In Cowork that path is the per-session Linux sandbox — vanishes at session end, invisible to the team.
`${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_DATA}` does not help here either. Anthropic's plugin docs describe it as the persistent per-plugin storage path. In Cowork it resolves to a session-scoped VM mount that disappears the same way (open: claude-code#51398). Every OAuth-backed MCP plugin hits the same wall.
v3.12.0 fixed this with environment-aware routing: when Cowork is detected AND a Drive MCP is configured, brand profiles and reports round-trip through Drive instead of the ephemeral sandbox. This skill is the one-shot setup that ensures both conditions are true before you start producing real work.
python scripts/plugin-metadata.py --section environmentParse the JSON. Three branches:
`environment == "cowork-sandbox"` — Proceed to Step 2.
`environment == "claude-code-windows"` / `"-mac"` / `"-linux"` — Tell the user:
"You're running in local Claude Code, not Cowork. The Cowork-specific Drive routing isn't needed here — brand state at ~/.claude-marketing/ persists on your host as designed. If you ALSO want Drive backups for team sharing, you can run this skill anyway and it'll mirror state to Drive as a backup. Want to proceed?"Only proceed if the user confirms.
`environment == "unknown"` — Show the indicators from the JSON and ask the user where they're running, then proceed assuming Cowork (since unknown-from-Cowork is the most likely case).
Scan your available tools for any Google Drive MCP. Common signatures:
mcp__<id>__create_file, mcp__<id>__read_file_content, mcp__<id>__search_files, mcp__<id>__list_folder_items — Anthropic-platform Drive integration (Settings → Integrations → Google Drive in Cowork)mcp__pipedream-google-drive__* — Pipedream aggregatormcp__composio-google-drive__* — Composiomcp__zapier-google-drive__* — ZapierIf a Drive MCP is found: confirm to the user which one ("Found: Anthropic platform Google Drive integration. I'll use this.") and proceed to Step 3.
If NO Drive MCP is found: stop the wizard with a clear message:
"Cowork-mode DMP needs a Google Drive integration before it can persist brand state for your team. Easiest setup (60 seconds):
>
1. In Cowork, click your profile menu → Settings → Integrations 2. Find Google Drive in the list → click Connect 3. Sign in with the Google account that owns your team's shared Drive 4. Come back here and re-run /digital-marketing-pro:cowork-setup>
Alternative: a Notion MCP also works as a persistence target — DMP will treat each brand as a Notion page. If you'd prefer that route, add Notion to your Cowork Integrations panel and re-run this skill."
Default folder name: DigitalMarketingPro (under "My Drive" or wherever the user prefers). If --drive-root <name> was passed, use that instead.
Use the Drive MCP to:
DigitalMarketingPro (or the user's --drive-root)Then create the subfolder skeleton:
DigitalMarketingPro/
├── _brands/ <- brand profile JSONs persist here per brand
├── _runs/ <- per-run checkpoints (resume across sessions)
├── _plans/ <- yearly + quarterly + campaign plans
└── (brand folders created on first content/audit/campaign run)
└── <brand name>/
├── strategy/
├── seo/
├── campaigns/
├── audits/
└── reports/Don't create empty brand subfolders yet — those auto-create during the first run for that brand. Just _brands/, _runs/, and _plans/ need to exist.
Multi-team isolation: ask the user "what's your team's Drive root folder name?" (default: DigitalMarketingPro). Different teams use different folder names → automatic namespace isolation. Examples:
DigitalMarketingPro (default)ACME DigitalMarketingProThen write the config via the canonical script (NOT a hand-written JSON file — use the script so the format stays in sync with the rest of the toolchain):
python scripts/drive-sync-state.py --action write-config --data '{
"environment": "cowork-sandbox",
"drive_root_folder_name": "<team folder name chosen>",
"drive_root_folder_id": "<id from Step 3>",
"drive_root_folder_url": "<webViewLink from Step 3>",
"drive_mcp_tool_prefix": "<prefix detected in Step 2, e.g. mcp__abc123__>"
}'The script writes to ~/.claude-marketing/_cowork-config.json and adds a configured_at timestamp automatically.
Future Cowork sessions: every DMP operation (brand-setup, status, seo-audit, campaign-plan, etc.) reads this config first. If it exists AND the Drive folder still exists, all I/O routes to that root. If a different team picked a different folder name, their config lives at the same path but points elsewhere — no collision.
To verify it was written correctly:
python scripts/drive-sync-state.py --action read-configShow a clean summary:
Digital Marketing Pro is now wired for Cowork team usage:
Environment: Cowork sandbox (Linux)
Drive integration: <name>
Output root in Drive: My Drive/<folder name> (link)
Config saved at: ~/.claude-marketing/_cowork-config.json
What this means in practice:
- /digital-marketing-pro:brand-setup -> profile lands in
Drive/<folder>/_brands/<brand-slug>/profile.json (persists across sessions)
- /digital-marketing-pro:campaign-plan -> plan lands in
Drive/<folder>/<brand>/campaigns/<YYYY-MM>/<slug>/PLAN.md
- /digital-marketing-pro:seo-audit -> audit + intermediates land in
Drive/<folder>/<brand>/audits/<date>/
- /digital-marketing-pro:status -> reads brand state from Drive first,
falls back to local sandbox if Drive call fails
- /digital-marketing-pro:resume -> picks up an interrupted run by
pulling its checkpoint files from Drive/<folder>/_runs/
Your team accesses everything via Google Drive directly. No
Cowork-specific paths to remember.
Next step:
/digital-marketing-pro:brand-setup "Your Brand Name"If --brand <name> was passed, automatically launch /digital-marketing-pro:brand-setup "<name>" after the summary. This makes the very first run "one command, fully set up."
When the routing is configured, brand-setup writes locally to ~/.claude-marketing/{brand}/profile.json AND records a pending Drive upload via drive-sync-state.py --action add-pending-upload. The agent then reads the pending list and uses its Drive MCP to push the file to <root>/_brands/{brand}/profile.json. On a future Cowork session, the agent reverses this: it reads _cowork-config.json, sees the team's Drive root, downloads <root>/_brands/{brand}/profile.json to the local sandbox, and marks it profile-mark-downloaded so the local hash matches the Drive copy.
Concretely: after every state-mutating DMP operation, the agent runs:
python scripts/drive-sync-state.py --action profile-needs-upload --brand <brand>If needs_upload: true, the agent uses its Drive MCP to upload the file and then runs --action profile-mark-uploaded with the Drive file ID returned by the MCP.
