gcp-cloud-monitoring is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from automateyournetwork/netclaw. It costs 55 tokens per session (1,163 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A tool for reading Google Cloud Monitoring data, including time-based measurements, alert policies, and active alerts.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect CPU, memory, network, disk, VPN, and load-balancer metrics, discover available metrics, and review alert conditions and violations.
Why use it?
It helps identify performance changes and current incidents by linking infrastructure metrics with the alerts configured for them.

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-monitoring 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 9d ago.

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 Monitoring

MCP Server

  • Endpoint: https://monitoring.googleapis.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP)
  • Auth: OAuth 2.0 via Google IAM — service account key (GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS) or gcloud auth application-default login
  • Requires: GCP_PROJECT_ID environment variable

Available Tools (6)

Tool What It Does
list_timeseries Query time series data — CPU, memory, network, disk metrics for any GCP resource
list_metric_descriptors Discover available metric types in a project — find what you can monitor
list_alert_policies List all alerting policies — conditions, notification channels, thresholds
get_alert_policy Get details of a specific alerting policy
list_alerts List current and past alert violations — what's firing right now
get_alert Get details of a specific alert violation

Workflow: GCP Network Monitoring

When a user asks "how is our GCP network performing?":

  1. Check alerts: list_alerts to find any active alert violations
  2. VM network metrics: list_timeseries for compute.googleapis.com/instance/network/received_bytes_count and sent_bytes_count
  3. Packet drops: list_timeseries for compute.googleapis.com/instance/network/received_packets_dropped_count
  4. Firewall metrics: list_timeseries for compute.googleapis.com/firewall/dropped_packets_count
  5. Load balancer metrics: list_timeseries for loadbalancing.googleapis.com/https/request_count and total_latencies
  6. Report: Network health dashboard with any issues flagged

Workflow: Alert Investigation

When investigating GCP alerts:

  1. List active alerts: list_alerts — find what's currently firing
  2. Get alert details: get_alert — condition, threshold, resource affected
  3. Get policy: get_alert_policy — what triggers this alert, notification channels
  4. Pull metrics: list_timeseries for the affected metric — see the spike/anomaly
  5. Cross-reference: Use gcp-cloud-logging for correlated log entries
  6. Report: Alert investigation with root cause and timeline

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.
