Plans, executes, and validates Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) cluster upgrades and maintenance operations for both Standard and Autopilot clusters. Produces upgrade plans, pre/post-upgrade checklists, maintenance runbooks with gcloud commands, release channel strategy, and troubleshooting guides. Handles node pool upgrade strategies (surge, blue-green), version compatibility, PDB management, and workload-specific concerns (stateful, GPU, operators). Use this skill whenever the user mentions GKE upgrades, Kubernetes version bumps, node pool maintenance, GKE patching, cluster version management, release channel selection, maintenance windows, surge upgrades, stuck upgrades, or any GKE lifecycle management task — even casual mentions like "we need to upgrade our clusters" or "plan our next GKE maintenance" or "our upgrade is stuck." Don't use for GKE cluster creation, application onboarding, general networking/routing setup, or security policy configurations (use gke-basics or relevant GKE skills instead).
Provides expert guidance on authenticating and authorizing to Google Cloud services and APIs, covering human users, service identities, Application Default Credentials (ADC), and best practices for secure access.
Guides agents and users through migrating from Gemini API in Google AI Studio to Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform (formerly Vertex AI). Use this skill when moving applications to Google Cloud, to leverage Cloud credits, or to unify inferencing with other Cloud infrastructure (IAM, billing, telemetry).
Use this skill whenever you are working on a project that uses Firebase products or services, especially for mobile or web apps.
Manages GenAI tuning jobs in Agent Platform. Use this to list, get, or cancel ongoing model tuning jobs. Don't use for fine-tuning models (use `agent-platform-tuning`), deploying models to endpoints (use `agent-platform-deploy`), or managing serving endpoints (use `agent-platform-endpoint-management`).
Generates sustainability-focused guidance for Google Cloud workloads based on the design principles and recommendations in the Google Cloud Well-Architected Framework (WAF). Use this skill to evaluate a workload, identify environmental impact requirements, and provide actionable recommendations to build, deploy, and manage the workload sustainably in Google Cloud.
This file generates or explains Cloud SQL resources. Use this file when the user asks to create a Cloud SQL instance or database for MySQL, PostgreSQL, or SQL Server. Cloud SQL manages third-party MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQL Server instances as resources in Cloud SQL. For example, when Cloud SQL creates an open-source MySQL instance, the resulting resource is a Cloud SQL for MySQL instance that Google Cloud manages. Cloud SQL handles backups, high availability, and secure connectivity for relational database workloads.
Manages datasets, tables, and jobs in BigQuery, and integrates with BigQuery ML and Gemini for advanced data analytics and AI-driven insights. Use when you need to interact with BigQuery, run SQL queries, manage BigQuery resources, or leverage BigQuery's built-in ML capabilities. Also use when performing data analysis, ingesting data into BigQuery, or developing AI applications on BigQuery.
Agent Platform Model Registry Management. Use when you need to upload, list, describe, update, or delete machine learning models (and their versions) in the Agent Platform Model Registry. Don't use for model training, model deployment to endpoints, or managing non-Agent Platform models.
