What it does

Gcloud is an agent skill from majiayu000/claude-skill-registry. Manage Google Cloud Platform resources via gcloud CLI. Use for Compute Engine VMs, Cloud Run services, Firebase Hosting, Cloud Storage, and project management. Covers deployment, monitoring, logs, and SSH access.

Its SKILL.md is about 3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 1 other file (for example `metadata.json`).

It sits in DevOps & Cloud, covering Project management. It works with Google Cloud, Firebase, Cloud Run and Bash. The repository describes itself as: Searchable Claude Code skills catalog with source-linked guides and generated registry artifacts. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

Compute Engine VMs
Cloud Run services
Firebase Hosting
Project management

Example prompts

“/gcloud”

Requirements

Node.js
Docker

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2d14a69. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
- gcloud
- firebase
- gsutil
- docker
- curl
- npm
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:
- dl.google.com
- cloud.google.com
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Gcloud loads about 3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 55 tokens; SKILL.md has 128 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it: ~55
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches: ~3k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

The full file from majiayu000/claude-skill-registry at commit 2d14a69, republished under its MIT licence (© majiayu000). 128 words, ~3,030 tokens.
