# Connect TutorClaw to Your Calendar: Read-Only Safety Guide

TutorClaw provides Calendar Awareness as a **supported skill** to help you review your schedule. When you choose to Connect TutorClaw to Your Calendar, the system operates as a strict **read-only calendar** tool.

## 🔒 Strictly Read-Only Access
TutorClaw can only *read* your primary calendar events to answer questions about your availability or appointments.
By design, this read-only calendar setup ensures TutorClaw has absolutely no ability to:
- Create new events or appointments
- Edit or modify any existing event
- Delete any event from your calendar
- Move calendar events to different times or folders
- Invite guests or add participants to meetings
- Cancel scheduled events

Even if you ask the assistant to make an appointment for you, it will politely explain that its calendar connection is strictly read-only and that it cannot make any changes.

## 📂 Private Local Files
When you authenticate your Google Calendar, two local files are created inside your TutorClaw project folder:
1. **`credentials.json`**: Identifies your local app connection configuration.
2. **`token.json`**: Acts as your active digital access pass for calendar reads.

These files are stored **exclusively on your local computer**. They are never uploaded to any external server or third-party service.

## 🔐 Safety Rules for Calendar Tokens
To keep your data safe:
* **Do not share**: Never send `token.json`, `credentials.json`, or `.env` files to anyone in chat or emails.
* **Do not package**: If you copy, compress, or share your TutorClaw folder with friends, make sure to delete `credentials.json` and `token.json` first.
* **Easy Revocation**: You can instantly disable access at any time by going to [myaccount.google.com/permissions](https://myaccount.google.com/permissions) and clicking **Remove Access** on the TutorClaw app.
