gcp-cloud-run

gcp-cloud-run is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from aj-geddes/useful-ai-prompts. It costs 33 tokens per session (635 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide to deploying applications packaged as containers on Google Cloud Run, a Google service that runs web containers without requiring you to manage servers. It covers scaling, traffic management, and service integration.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to deploy microservices, APIs, web backends, batch jobs, background workers, data pipelines, and WebSocket applications on Google Cloud.
Why use it?
It helps run containerized web apps and services while reducing the infrastructure work needed to keep them available. It also supports automatic scaling for changing demand.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

gcp-cloud-run scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/validate-config.sh), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

GCP Cloud Run

Table of Contents

Overview

Google Cloud Run enables deployment of containerized applications at scale without managing infrastructure. Run stateless HTTP containers with automatic scaling from zero to thousands of instances, paying only for compute time consumed.

When to Use

  • Microservices and APIs
  • Web applications and backends
  • Batch processing jobs
  • Long-running background workers
  • CI/CD pipeline integration
  • Data processing pipelines
  • WebSocket applications
  • Multi-language services

Quick Start

Minimal working example:

# Build container image
gcloud builds submit --tag gcr.io/MY_PROJECT_ID/my-app:latest

# Deploy to Cloud Run
gcloud run deploy my-app \
  --image gcr.io/MY_PROJECT_ID/my-app:latest \
  --platform managed \
  --region us-central1 \
  --memory 512Mi \
  --cpu 1 \
  --timeout 3600 \
  --max-instances 100 \
  --min-instances 1 \
  --no-allow-unauthenticated \
  --set-env-vars NODE_ENV=production,DATABASE_URL=postgresql://...

# Allow public access
gcloud run services add-iam-policy-binding my-app \
  --platform managed \
  --region us-central1 \
  --member=allUsers \
  --role=roles/run.invoker

# Get service URL
gcloud run services describe my-app \
// ... (see reference guides for full implementation)

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
