This is not a Ready MCP Server

GCP MCP Server

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

Running the Server

Start the MCP server:

python main.py

For development and testing:

# Development mode with auto-reload
python main.py --dev

# Run with specific configuration
python main.py --config config.yaml

Docker Deployment

Build and run with Docker:

# Build the image
docker build -t gcp-mcp-server .

# Run the container
docker run -p 8080:8080 -v ~/.config/gcloud:/root/.config/gcloud gcp-mcp-server

Configuration

The server can be configured through environment variables or a configuration file:

See .env.example for a complete list of configuration options.

Development

Adding a New GCP Service

1. Create a new file in the services/ directory

2. Implement the service following the pattern in existing services

3. Register the service in main.py

See the services README for detailed implementation guidance.

Security Considerations

• The server uses Application Default Credentials for authentication

• Authorization is determined by the permissions of the authenticated identity

• No credentials are hardcoded in the service implementations

• Consider running with a service account with appropriate permissions

Using the Server

To use this server:

1. Place your GCP service account key file as service-account.json in the same directory

2. Install the MCP package: pip install "mcp[cli]"

3. Install the required GCP package: pip install google-cloud-run

4. Run: mcp dev gcp_cloudrun_server.py

Or install it in Claude Desktop:

mcp install gcp_cloudrun_server.py --name "GCP Cloud Run Manager"
