Features

  • 🔍 Query and modify GCP resources using natural language
  • ☁️ Support for multiple GCP projects
  • 🌐 Multi-region support
  • 🔐 Secure credential handling (no credentials are exposed to external services)
  • 🏃‍♂️ Local execution with your GCP credentials
  • 🔄 Automatic retries for improved reliability

Prerequisites

  • Node.js
  • Claude Desktop/Cursor/Windsurf
  • GCP credentials configured locally (application default credentials)

Installation

  1. Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/eniayomi/gcp-mcp
cd gcp-mcp
  1. Install dependencies:
npm install

Configuration

Claude Desktop

  1. Open Claude desktop app and go to Settings -> Developer -> Edit Config

  2. Add the following entry to your claude_desktop_config.json:

via npm:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gcp": {
      "command": "sh",
      "args": ["-c", "npx -y gcp-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

If you installed from source:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gcp": {
      "command": "npm",
      "args": [
        "--silent",
        "--prefix",
        "/path/to/gcp-mcp",
        "start"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Replace /path/to/gcp-mcp with the actual path to your project directory if using source installation.

Cursor

  1. Open Cursor and go to Settings (⌘,)
  2. Navigate to AI -> Model Context Protocol
  3. Add a new MCP configuration:
{
  "gcp": {
    "command": "npx -y gcp-mcp"
  }
}

Windsurf

  1. Open ~/.windsurf/config.json (create if it doesn't exist)
  2. Add the MCP configuration:
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gcp": {
      "command": "npx -y gcp-mcp"
    }
  }
}

GCP Setup

  1. Set up GCP credentials:

    • Set up application default credentials using gcloud auth application-default login
  2. Refresh your AI assistant (Claude Desktop/Cursor/Windsurf)

Usage

Start by selecting a project or asking questions like:

  • "List all GCP projects I have access to"
  • "Show me all Cloud SQL instances in project X"
  • "What's my current billing status?"
  • "Show me the logs from my Cloud Run services"
  • "List all GKE clusters in us-central1"
  • "Show me all Cloud Storage buckets in project X"
  • "What Cloud Functions are deployed in us-central1?"
  • "List all Cloud Run services"
  • "Show me BigQuery datasets and tables"

Available Tools

  1. run-gcp-code: Execute GCP API calls using TypeScript code
  2. list-projects: List all accessible GCP projects
  3. select-project: Select a GCP project for subsequent operations
  4. get-billing-info: Get billing information for the current project
