Release Notes

Minor Changes

• b38b760: Add Application Default Credentials (ADC) support.

  gws now discovers ADC as a fourth credential source, after the encrypted
  and plaintext credential files. The lookup order is:

  1. GOOGLE_WORKSPACE_CLI_TOKEN env var (raw access token, highest priority)
  2. GOOGLE_WORKSPACE_CLI_CREDENTIALS_FILE env var
  3. Encrypted credentials (~/.config/gws/credentials.enc)
  4. Plaintext credentials (~/.config/gws/credentials.json)
  5. ADC — GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS env var (hard error if file missing), then
     ~/.config/gcloud/application_default_credentials.json (silent if absent)

  This means gcloud auth application-default login --client-id-file=client_secret.json
  is now a fully supported auth flow — no need to run gws auth login separately.
  Both authorized_user and service_account ADC formats are supported.
