Arguments
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
spreadsheet_idrequired | string | the spreadsheet ID (from its URL or get_sheet_metadata). |
range_required | string | A1 range with sheet name, e.g. 'Summary!A1:D5'. |
top | object | {style, color} for the outer edges; omit a side to leave it unchanged. |
bottom | object | {style, color} for the outer edges; omit a side to leave it unchanged. |

Result
Every tool answers {notification, data, human_action}; data carries:
data.sides— the sides written (camelCase, e.g. innerHorizontal).
Gotchas
- At least one side is required. Every range here must name its tab; an open end is allowed ('Tab!C7:C' runs to the bottom, 'Tab!A:D' is whole columns); a range without a tab ('A1:D10') is refused.
Example
set_sheet_borders("1ABC...", "Summary!A1:C3",
top={"style": "SOLID_THICK", "color": [1.0, 0.0, 0.0]},
bottom={"style": "SOLID_THICK", "color": [1.0, 0.0, 0.0]},
left={"style": "SOLID_THICK", "color": [1.0, 0.0, 0.0]},
