# Google Docs Reader
To read a Google Doc:
1. Replace `/edit` (or any suffix after the doc ID) with `/mobilebasic`
2. **ALWAYS use curl, NOT WebFetch.** WebFetch summarizes/truncates content. curl gets the full document:
```bash
curl -sL 'https://docs.google.com/document/d/DOC_ID/mobilebasic' > /tmp/doc.txt
```
3. Read the downloaded file with the Read tool
