Ask an AI agent connected to Reduck to run reduck/docs.google.com/sheets_rename_tab, or run it from a terminal with the Reduck CLI: npx @reduck-ai/cli@latest run --script reduck/docs.google.com/sheets_rename_tab
You do not need one. "Sheets: rename tab" drives the real docs.google.com pages in a browser, so it works whether or not docs.google.com offers an API for this.
Required: spreadsheetId, gid, name.
It returns gid, name.

It makes changes on docs.google.com, like sending, posting, booking or buying something.

Sheets: write cells

Write a 2D block of values into one tab of a Google Spreadsheet, top-left at startCell, like the Sheets API: null leaves a cell as it is, "" clears it, anything else replaces it as if typed (dropdown rules and formatting stay; clearing a dropdown cell removes its dropdown). Returns range, rows, cols, saved once every edit is saved. A value the sheet refuses (data validation, outside the grid) stops the run with the sheet's own message. Values are parsed per the spreadsheet locale ("1.5" in a FR sheet becomes 1 May; prefix ' to force text); leading = enters a formula; needs edit rights.
