Google Classroom for AI agents
Google Classroom is Google's tool for teachers to create, distribute, and grade assignments in schools. Educators use it to manage coursework and enrollment without manual paperwork. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
What agents do in Google Classroom.
Post a new announcement
Post an announcement to a course stream to remind students of an upcoming deadline.
List a course's assignments
List the course work items for a class to check what has already been assigned.
Remove a student with confirmation
Remove a student from a course roster only after a teacher confirms the enrollment change.
62 Google Classroom actions, graded by risk.
Every Google Classroom action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

Google Classroom in three steps.
- 01Your users connect Google ClassroomThey sign in to Google Classroom on Arc0 Connect, under your brand, and approve the access you ask for.
- 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “get Course” can wait for the user, and “delete Course” can be denied outright.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls Google Classroom through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('google_classroom', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', // courses_get destructive: 'deny', // courses_delete }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How Google Classroom connects.
Users sign in to Google Classroom on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Google Classroom OAuth app, or bring your own so the Google Classroom consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.
The same Google Classroom connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →

Use Google Classroom from any agent.
Google Classroom and Arc0, answered.
Can I use Google Classroom with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect Google Classroom to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the Google Classroom actions you allow.
How do users connect Google Classroom?
Users sign in to Google Classroom on Arc0 Connect and approve the scopes you request. Build with Arc0’s Google Classroom OAuth app, or bring your own so the Google Classroom consent screen names you. Tokens refresh automatically, and you can export them whenever you want.
Which Google Classroom actions can my agent take?
62 in total: 4 read, 47 write and 11 destructive, such as “get Course”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I stop my agent from deleting things in Google Classroom?
Yes. Actions like “delete Course” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.
Can my own backend call Google Classroom too?
Yes. The same Google Classroom connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug Google Classroom into your agent.
Your users connect Google Classroom once, under your brand. Your agent gets 62 actions behind your policies, with every call on the record.
