gcp-compute is a skill that provides architecture guidance and cost modeling for Google Compute Engine virtual machines while delegating provisioning to the Google Cloud Python client.

About

This skill provides architecture guidance, cost modeling, and pre-flight IAM requirements for Google Compute Engine, which manages virtual machines and compute resources on GCP. A developer uses it to plan VM provisioning and cost optimization while the official Google Cloud Python client handles execution. It also covers Vertex AI integration patterns for AI workloads.

  • Architecture guidance for Compute Engine VMs
  • Delegates execution to Google Cloud Python client
  • Cost modeling with committed and sustained use discounts

What it does

Plan Compute Engine VM provisioning and cost optimization with IAM guidance while the SDK handles execution.

Who is it for?

Planning Compute Engine VM sizing, cost, and IAM before executing with the SDK.

Skip if: Serverless-only workloads or non-GCP compute platforms.

When should I use this skill?

You need to provision VMs on GCP and want architecture and cost guidance first.

What you get

A Compute Engine provisioning plan with cost model and IAM pre-flight, executed via the Python SDK.

  • VM architecture guidance
  • Cost estimates with discount options
  • IAM pre-flight requirements

Google Cloud Integration

This skill delegates all GCP provisioning and operations to the official Google Cloud Python client libraries.

# Core GCP client library
pip install google-cloud-python

# Vertex AI + Agent Engine (AI/ML workloads)
pip install google-cloud-aiplatform

# Specific service clients (install only what you need)
pip install google-cloud-bigquery      # BigQuery
pip install google-cloud-storage       # Cloud Storage
pip install google-cloud-pubsub        # Pub/Sub
pip install google-cloud-run           # Cloud Run

SDK Docs: https://github.com/googleapis/google-cloud-python Vertex AI SDK: https://cloud.google.com/vertex-ai/docs/python-sdk/use-vertex-ai-python-sdk

Use the Google Cloud Python SDK for all GCP provisioning and operational actions. This skill provides architecture guidance, cost modeling, and pre-flight requirements — the SDK handles execution.

Architecture Guidance

Consult this skill for:

  • GCP service selection and trade-off analysis
  • Cost estimation and optimization (committed use discounts, sustained use)
  • Pre-flight IAM / Workload Identity Federation requirements
  • IaC approach (Terraform AzureRM vs Deployment Manager vs Config Connector)
  • Integration patterns with Google Workspace and other GCP services
  • Vertex AI Agent Engine for multi-agent workflow design
