# Setting Up Google Cloud CLI in Cursor/VS Code
## Current Status
❌ **gcloud CLI is not found in your PATH**
## Quick Fix Options
### Option 1: Install Google Cloud SDK (If Not Installed)
1. **Download the installer:**
- Go to: https://cloud.google.com/sdk/docs/install
- Click "Download SDK" for Windows
- Download `GoogleCloudSDKInstaller.exe`
2. **Run the installer:**
- Run the downloaded file
- ✅ Make sure "Add Cloud SDK to PATH" is checked
- Complete the installation
3. **Restart Cursor/VS Code:**
- Close Cursor completely
- Reopen Cursor
- Open a new terminal (Terminal → New Terminal)
4. **Verify:**
```powershell
gcloud --version
```
### Option 2: Add gcloud to PATH Manually (If Already Installed)
If gcloud is installed but not in PATH:
```powershell
# Check common installation locations
Test-Path "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Cloud SDK\google-cloud-sdk\bin\gcloud.cmd"
Test-Path "$env:USERPROFILE\AppData\Local\Google\Cloud SDK\google-cloud-sdk\bin\gcloud.cmd"
# If found, add to PATH for current session
$gcloudPath = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Cloud SDK\google-cloud-sdk\bin"
if (Test-Path "$gcloudPath\gcloud.cmd") {
$env:PATH += ";$gcloudPath"
Write-Host "Added gcloud to PATH for this session" -ForegroundColor Green
gcloud --version
}
```
**To make it permanent:**
1. Search "Environment Variables" in Windows
2. Edit "Path" variable
3. Add: `C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Cloud SDK\google-cloud-sdk\bin`
4. Restart Cursor
### Option 3: Use Full Path (Temporary Solution)
If gcloud is installed but not in PATH, you can use the full path:
```powershell
# Try common paths
& "C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Cloud SDK\google-cloud-sdk\bin\gcloud.cmd" --version
# Or if in user directory
& "$env:USERPROFILE\AppData\Local\Google\Cloud SDK\google-cloud-sdk\bin\gcloud.cmd" --version
```
## After Installation
Once gcloud is working:
1. **Set your project:**
```powershell
gcloud config set project slashmcp
```
2. **Verify:**
```powershell
gcloud config get-value project
# Should show: slashmcp
```
3. **Login (if needed):**
```powershell
gcloud auth login
```
4. **Enable required APIs:**
```powershell
gcloud services enable cloudbuild.googleapis.com
gcloud services enable run.googleapis.com
gcloud services enable containerregistry.googleapis.com
gcloud services enable secretmanager.googleapis.com
```
## Next Steps
After gcloud is set up, you can deploy:
```powershell
.\deploy-cloud-run.ps1 -ProjectId "slashmcp" -Region "us-central1"
```
## Troubleshooting
### "gcloud not found" after installation
- **Solution:** Restart Cursor/VS Code completely
- Or manually add to PATH (see Option 2 above)
### "Permission denied" errors
- **Solution:** Run Cursor as Administrator, or check file permissions
### Installation fails
- **Solution:** Check Windows Defender/Antivirus isn't blocking
- Try installing as Administrator
