Maybe try and see what works for you and your goals and gi track. At this rate you’ll be advise a kilo of protein in no time. Pending body weight size most people live their entire lives with 20-60 grams a day. Start off with what you comfortably eat in a normal day, workout for your goals, keep track of excessive soreness and lack of growth if is your goal. After a week or so maybe add 10g and so on and so on. At anytime your gi track tells you its too much decrease, obviously if your just dumping out calories and protein without proper digestion and absorption then its just a waste of money and actually hurting and decreasing your nutrition.

I heard that 50% of your required protein protein ideally should come from sources with complete amino profiles (typically animal sources) elsewise (vegans, ect) you need to worry about amino acid matching. Your shake is probably such (guessing whey) your bar might be, but oatmeal protein is not a complete protein regarding in terms of amino profile (not sure what dairy/meats your other meals may or may not include nor how well the aminos from your veg sources pair up)

Generally the maximum most people can use is 1.6g of protein per kilogram (not pound) of ideal body weight. That equates to 0.72 grams per pound. Beyond that there's not much benefit.

to correct with someone said about 1 g of protein per body weight. It's actually 1 g of protein per pound of lean muscle. A lot of people get that confused and they really don't calculate that way because it's much easier just to say 1 gram per pound of body weight. But in reality it causes you to kind of over consume protein which you can do. So say You're 200 lb. 20% body fat. So if you subtract 20% of 200 which is 40lbs of fat. So 40 lb at 200 that leaves you with 160 lb of lean muscle approximate.. So it would actually be 160 g of protein not 200 g of protein. A lot of people over consume protein because it still calorie valued in total calories of all macros is your total calories if that makes sense.. So unless you're like a hundred pounds then 60g isnt enough

You should get roughly 1g of protein per pound of body weight. So if the protein from regular meals adds up then yes.

Depends on how much those other sources add up to.
