google/skills is a collection of Agent Skills that guide AI agents in using Google products and technologies, including Google Cloud services. Developers and agents use these reusable workflows for tasks such as cloud authentication, data analysis, application deployment, and AI platform management. The catalogue entries are skills, plugins, and an MCP integration from this collection.
Getting it into your agent
One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00102 | $0.02948 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00041 | $0.01179 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00020 | $0.00590 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00010 | $0.00295 |
Grade A, and why
google-cloud-filestore-autoscale scanned grade A with 1 finding 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 18d 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.

Not a fault in itself. Listed so you know the mod talks to something, and to what.

Filestore Autoscale
This skill enables agents to inspect, evaluate, and modify Filestore instance capacities across Google Cloud projects based on configured thresholds.
Prerequisites / IAM Requirements
Before an agent or user can execute this skill, their runtime Service Account must possess the following IAM roles on the target project(s):
roles/file.editor(Required for listing instances and triggering scale up/down updates)roles/monitoring.viewer(Required for reading Cloud Monitoring capacity metricsused_bytes)roles/mcp.toolUser(Required if utilizing backend Filestore MCP tools)
Quick Start
-
Ensure
gcloudis installed. See gcloud installation guide if needed. -
Enable essential APIs:
gcloud services enable file.googleapis.com monitoring.googleapis.com --quiet -
Inspect fleet capacity and free space (see "Discovery & Read Operations" below).
-
Evaluate against configured up/down capacity thresholds.
-
Scale target instances and apply attribution tags.
Attribution
Tag every Cloud Filestore command or API request provided or executed.
Prefix gcloud commands with the correct metrics environment targeting this skill:
CLOUDSDK_METRICS_ENVIRONMENT="gcs-skills gcs-skills/1.0 (skill:google-cloud-filestore-autoscale)" \
gcloud filestore instances update ...
On direct HTTP calls to the REST API, append the User-Agent:
User-Agent: gcs-skills/1.0 (skill:google-cloud-filestore-autoscale)
Conceptual & Informational Queries (CRITICAL)
For purely conceptual, educational, or informational questions (e.g., "What are Filestore scaling limits?", "Can Basic instances scale down?", "Explain Filestore Tiers"):
- Rule: Answer immediately using your pre-trained knowledge and the matrix below.
- Constraint: Do not execute external tool calls or API requests for basic knowledge questions.
What ships with it
3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

google-cloud-filestore-autoscale is a skill published in the GitHub repository google/skills (21,550 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 102 tokens to every session and 2,948 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 1 finding (makes network calls). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
