Storage Skill

This skill provides patterns for transferring local datasets (such as raw audio recordings or Hoplite databases) to Google Drive using rclone, so they can be processed remotely (e.g., in a Google Colab notebook).

Workflow Overview

Follow these sequential steps when a user needs to migrate local datasets to Google Drive:

1. Verify rclone Installation: Check if rclone is installed on the user's system by running which rclone. If not, provide the user with installation instructions.
2. Verify or Bootstrap Configuration:
   • Check if the user has a configured Google Drive remote by running rclone listremotes.
   • If no remote is configured, do not ask the user to manually walk through the interactive configuration. Instead, propose running rclone config create gdrive drive directly. This command creates a remote named gdrive and opens the OAuth approval page in their browser automatically.
3. Execute Transfer: Run the upload command using rclone copy or rclone sync to transfer the local dataset or folders to the remote Google Drive destination.
4. Retrieve Folder ID (Optional): Once uploaded, get the remote folder details or direct sharing link if needed for downstream remote processing.
