How do I get a Google Classroom access token?

Go to [Google Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com/), enable the Google Classroom API, create OAuth 2.0 credentials, and generate an access token with scopes: `classroom.courses`, `classroom.rosters`, `classroom.profile`. Use Google's OAuth Playground for quick testing.

Can I create and grade assignments?

Yes! Use `create_course_work` to create assignments with due dates and max points. Use `list_submissions` to see who turned in work, then `get_submission` to review individual student work. After grading, use `return_submission` to send it back to the student.

Can I manage student enrollment?

This MCP focuses on read-only operations for safety: listing students/teachers, viewing assignments, and tracking submissions. To add/remove students, use the Google Classroom web interface directly.
