# Send Google Cloud to your agent
Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
## Fast path
- Download the package from Yavira.
- Extract it into a folder your agent can access.
- Paste one of the prompts below and point your agent at the extracted folder.
## Suggested prompts
### New install

```text
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
```
### Upgrade existing

```text
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
```

## Documentation

### Cost Traps

Stopped Compute Engine VMs still pay for persistent disks and static IPs — delete disks or use snapshots for long-term storage
Cloud NAT charges per VM and per GB processed — use Private Google Access for GCP API traffic instead
BigQuery on-demand pricing charges for bytes scanned, not rows returned — partition tables and use LIMIT in dev, but LIMIT doesn't reduce scan cost in prod
Preemptible VMs save 80% but can be terminated anytime — only for fault-tolerant batch workloads
Egress to internet costs, egress to same region is free — keep resources in same region, use Cloud CDN for global distribution

### Security Rules

Service accounts are both identity and resource — one service account can impersonate another with roles/iam.serviceAccountTokenCreator
IAM policy inheritance: Organization → Folder → Project → Resource — deny policies at org level override allows below
VPC Service Controls protect against data exfiltration — but break Cloud Console access if not configured with access levels
Default Compute Engine service account has Editor role — create dedicated service accounts with least privilege
Workload Identity Federation eliminates service account keys — use for GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, external workloads

### Networking

VPC is global, subnets are regional — unlike AWS, single VPC can span all regions
Firewall rules are allow-only by default — implicit deny all ingress, allow all egress. Add explicit deny rules for egress control
Private Google Access is per-subnet setting — enable on every subnet that needs to reach GCP APIs without public IP
Cloud Load Balancer global vs regional — global for multi-region, but regional is simpler and cheaper for single region
Shared VPC separates network admin from project admin — host project owns network, service projects consume it

### Performance

Cloud Functions gen1 has 9-minute timeout — gen2 (Cloud Run based) allows 60 minutes
Cloud SQL connection limits vary by instance size — use connection pooling or Cloud SQL Auth Proxy
Firestore/Datastore hotspotting on sequential IDs — use UUIDs or reverse timestamps for document IDs
GKE Autopilot simplifies but limits — no DaemonSets, no privileged containers, no host network
Cloud Storage single object limit is 5TB — use compose for larger, parallel uploads for faster

### Monitoring

Cloud Logging retention: 30 days default, _Required bucket is 400 days — create custom bucket with longer retention for compliance
Cloud Monitoring alert policies have 24-hour auto-close — incident disappears even if issue persists, configure notification channels for re-alert
Error Reporting groups by stack trace — same error with different messages creates duplicates
Cloud Trace sampling is automatic — may miss rare errors, increase sampling rate for debugging
Audit logs: Admin Activity always on, Data Access off by default — enable Data Access logs for security compliance

### Infrastructure as Code

Terraform google provider requires project ID everywhere — use google_project data source or variables, never hardcode
gcloud commands are imperative — use Deployment Manager or Terraform for reproducible infra
Cloud Build triggers on push but IAM permissions on first run confusing — grant Cloud Build service account necessary roles before first deploy
Project deletion has 30-day recovery period — but project ID is globally unique forever, can't reuse
Labels propagate to billing — use consistent labeling for cost allocation: env, team, service

### IAM Best Practices

Primitive roles (Owner/Editor/Viewer) are too broad — use predefined roles, create custom for least privilege
Service account keys are security liability — use Workload Identity, impersonation, or attached service accounts instead
roles/iam.serviceAccountUser lets you run as that SA — equivalent to having its permissions, grant carefully
Organization policies restrict what projects can do — constraints/compute.vmExternalIpAccess blocks public VMs org-wide
