Google Cloud MCP: Documentation
Updated:
Connection
Each Google Cloud product connects through its own managed endpoint shaped like https://<product>.googleapis.com/mcp (e.g. bigquery.googleapis.com/mcp, container.googleapis.com/mcp for GKE) over Streamable HTTP. Authorization is standard Google Cloud IAM: an OAuth 2.0 token for a user or service account with the right project roles. No separate install is needed — the server is already deployed by Google.
Tools
The available tools depend on which product you connect:
- BigQuery — queries, dataset and table schema browsing.
- Cloud Spanner, AlloyDB, Cloud SQL — SQL queries and database instance management.
- Firestore — reading and writing documents and collections.
- GKE — cluster, pod and deployment status.
- Compute Engine — instances, disks, networks.
- Cloud Run — services, revisions, deploys.
- Cloud Logging/Monitoring — log search, metrics, alerts.
Agent flow
"How many pods are running in the prod cluster?", "run a BigQuery query for last month's revenue", "show Cloud Run errors from the logs in the last hour", "which Compute Engine instances are currently stopped?".
Pricing
Connecting to the MCP endpoints is free; regular usage of the underlying Google Cloud services (BigQuery, GKE, Compute Engine and so on) is billed at standard rates.
