INSPECTION: Inspect GCP infrastructure for a deployed project
⚠️ **PREREQUISITE**: This tool requires a prior deployment ATTEMPT (successful or failed).
Check convostatus for hasDeployAttempt=true before calling. Works even after failed deploys to inspect orphaned resources.
Inspect deployed GCP resources after a deployment attempt.
Use this tool when the user asks about the status or details of their deployed GCP infrastructure.
It fetches temporary read-only credentials securely and queries the GCP API directly.
RESPONSE TIERS (default is summary for token efficiency):
- Summary (default): Key fields only (~500 tokens). Set detail=false, raw=false or omit both.
- Detail: Full metadata for a specific resource. Set detail=true + resource filter.
- Raw: Complete unprocessed API response. Set raw=true.
REQUIRES: session_id from convoopen response (format: sess_v2_...).
Supported services: apigateway, bastion, billing, certificatemanager, cloudarmor, cloudbuild, cloudcdn, clouddeploy, clouddns, cloudfunctions, cloudkms, cloudlogging, cloudmonitoring, cloudrun, cloudsql, compute, firestore, gcs, gke, iam, identityplatform, loadbalancer, memorystore, pubsub, secretmanager, vertexai, vpc
For a specific service's actions, call with action="list-actions".
METRICS: Use list-metrics to see available Cloud Monitoring metrics for any service (no credentials needed — progressive disclosure). Use get-metrics to retrieve time-series data. Optional filters JSON: {"hours":6,"period":300}.
Label breakdowns: Cloud Functions (by status), Load Balancer/API Gateway (by response_code_class), Cloud CDN (by cache_result).
Secret Manager get-metrics returns operational health (version count, replication, create time) — no time-series.
Bastion is an alias for Compute Engine metrics (SSH connection count not available as a GCP metric).
BILLING: Use service=billing to inspect GCP billing. Actions: get-billing-info (check if billing enabled, which billing account), get-budgets (list budget alerts for the project — auto-fetches billing account). Requires roles/billing.viewer IAM role.
Required IAM roles: Monitoring Viewer (roles/monitoring.viewer) for metrics, Secret Manager Viewer (roles/secretmanager.viewer) for secret health, Billing Viewer (roles/billing.viewer) for billing.
