# OpenCLI Agent Pack: Google Cloud CLI

Use this when an AI agent needs to work with `gcloud`.

## What this CLI is for
The official CLI from Google Cloud. Cloud ops, gcp projects, and deploy and logs from the terminal. Supports structured output — good for scripts and agents.

Best for: cloud ops, gcp projects, and deploy and logs from the terminal.

## Agent readiness
Great for agents (75/100)
- Structured output is available for parsing.
- Supports non-interactive/scripted use.
- Works well in CI or repeatable automation.

## Install
```sh
brew install --cask google-cloud-sdk
```

## Verify before real work
```sh
gcloud auth list
```
Expected signal: Shows active Google Cloud identities.

## Safe starting commands
```sh
gcloud auth list
```

```sh
gcloud auth login && gcloud config set project my-project
```

## Guardrails for agents
- Verify identity/account before running task commands.
- Network access is required; avoid leaking secrets in logs.
- Require confirmation before apply, delete, deploy, transfer, merge, or write actions.

## Suggested agent instruction
You may use Google Cloud CLI (`gcloud`) for cloud ops, gcp projects, and deploy and logs from the terminal.. First install it if missing, then run the verify command. Start with read-only or inspection commands. Summarize what you found before changing anything. Ask for confirmation before commands that mutate remote state, spend money, deploy, delete data, merge code, or expose secrets.
