Overview
What It Does
Cloud Monitoring Metric Selection packages a focused devops & cloud workflow for an AI agent. Retrieve, query, and identify relevant Google Cloud Monitoring metric descriptors for a GCP service or resource (such as Compute Engine, Spanner, BigQuery, Cloud Run, Cloud SQL, Pub/Sub, Cloud Storage, etc.). Use when asked to find, list, search, or discover GCP metric types, names, kind/value schemas, or descriptors. It is best suited to users who can review the resulting actions and provide only the accounts, files, or command access needed for the task. It is not a substitute for human approval on destructive, financial, security-sensitive, or public-facing actions.
