Argument 1
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
- Python 3.10+
- GCP project with enabled APIs for the services you want to use
- Authenticated GCP credentials (Application Default Credentials recommended)
Start the MCP server:
bashpython main.py
For development and testing:
bash
python main.py --config config.yaml
Build and run with Docker:
bash
The following configuration can be added to your configuration file for GCP Cloud Tools:
"mcpServers": {
"GCP Cloud Tools": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"run",
"--with",
"google-cloud-artifact-registry>=1.10.0",

}
}
}
This configuration sets up an MCP server for Google Cloud Platform tools with the following:
- Command: Uses uv package manager to run the server
- Dependencies: Includes various Google Cloud libraries (Artifact Registry, BigQuery, Cloud Build, etc.)
- Environment Variables:
- GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS: Path to your GCP service account credentials
- GCP_PROJECT_ID: Your Google Cloud project ID
- GCP_LOCATION: GCP region (us-east1)

A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation for Google Cloud Platform (GCP) services, enabling AI assistants to interact with and manage GCP resources through a standardized interface.
Overview
GCP MCP Server provides AI assistants with capabilities to:
- Query GCP Resources: Get information about your cloud infrastructure
- Manage Cloud Resources: Create, configure, and manage GCP services
- Receive Assistance: Get AI-guided help with GCP configurations and best practices
The implementation follows the MCP specification to enable AI systems to interact with GCP services in a secure, controlled manner.
Supported GCP Services
This implementation includes support for the following GCP services:
- Artifact Registry: Container and package management
- BigQuery: Data warehousing and analytics
- Cloud Audit Logs: Logging and audit trail analysis
- Cloud Build: CI/CD pipeline management
- Cloud Compute Engine: Virtual machine instances
- Cloud Monitoring: Metrics, alerting, and dashboards
- Cloud Run: Serverless container deployments
- Cloud Storage: Object storage management
Architecture
The project is structured as follows:
gcp-mcp-server/
├── core/ # Core MCP server functionality auth context logging_handler security
├── prompts/ # AI assistant prompts for GCP operations
├── services/ # GCP service implementations
│ ├── README.md # Service implementation details
│ └── ... # Individual service modules
├── main.py # Main server entry point
└── ...
Key components:
- Service Modules: Each GCP service has its own module with resources, tools, and prompts
- Client Instances: Centralized client management for authentication and resource access
- Core Components: Base functionality for the MCP server implementation
Getting Started
Prerequisites
- Python 3.10+
- GCP project with enabled APIs for the services you want to use
- Authenticated GCP credentials (Application Default Credentials recommended)
Installation
1. Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/yourusername/gcp-mcp-server.git
cd gcp-mcp-server
2. Set up a virtual environment:
python -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
3. Install dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txt
4. Configure your GCP credentials:
# Using gcloud
gcloud auth application-default login
# Or set GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS
export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/path/to/service-account-key.json"
5. Set up environment variables:
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your configuration
