Full Release Notes
## Release Notes ### Minor Changes - 47afe5f: Use Google account timezone instead of machine-local time for day-boundary calculations in calendar and workflow helpers. Adds `--timezone` flag to `+agenda` for explicit override. Timezone is fetched from Calendar Settings API and cached for 24 hours. ### Patch Changes - c61b9cb: fix(gmail): RFC 2047 encode non-ASCII display names in To/From/Cc/Bcc headers Fixes mojibake when sending emails to recipients with non-ASCII display names (e.g. Japanese, Spanish accented characters). The new `encode_address_header()` function parses mailbox lists, encodes only the display-name portion via RFC 2047 Base64, and leaves email addresses untouched. ## Install gws 0.16.0 ### Install prebuilt binaries via shell script ```sh curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -LsSf https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-installer.sh | sh ``` ### Install prebuilt binaries via powershell script ```sh powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -c "irm https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-installer.ps1 | iex" ``` ### Install prebuilt binaries into your npm project ```sh npm install @googleworkspace/cli@0.16.0 ``` ## Download gws 0.16.0 | File | Platform | Checksum | |--------|----------|----------| | [gws-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz](https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz) | Apple Silicon macOS | [checksum](https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-aarch64-apple-darwin.tar.gz.sha256) | | [gws-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz](https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz) | Intel macOS | [checksum](https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz.sha256) | | [gws-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc.zip](https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc.zip) | x64 Windows | [checksum](https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc.zip.sha256) | | [gws-aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz](https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz) | ARM64 Linux | [checksum](https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-aarch64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz.sha256) | | [gws-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz](https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz) | x64 Linux | [checksum](https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz.sha256) | | [gws-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz](https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz) | ARM64 MUSL Linux | [checksum](https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz.sha256) | | [gws-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz](https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz) | x64 MUSL Linux | [checksum](https://github.com/googleworkspace/cli/releases/download/v0.16.0/gws-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl.tar.gz.sha256) | ## Verifying GitHub Artifact Attestations The artifacts in this release have attestations generated with GitHub Artifact Attestations.
