Production-ready Cloud Run on GCP: containerized services, Cloud Run Functions, cold start optimization, Pub/Sub integration, Cloud SQL, Secret Manager, concurrency tuning. Covers sharp edges and gotchas.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# GCP Cloud Run

Specialized skill for building production-ready serverless applications on GCP.
Covers Cloud Run services (containerized), Cloud Run Functions (event-driven),
cold start optimization, and event-driven architecture with Pub/Sub.

## Principles

- Cloud Run for containers, Functions for simple event handlers
- Optimize for cold starts with startup CPU boost and min instances
- Set concurrency based on workload (start with 8, adjust)
- Memory includes /tmp filesystem - plan accordingly
- Use VPC Connector only when needed (adds latency)
- Containers should start fast and be stateless
- Handle signals gracefully for clean shutdown

## Patterns

### Cloud Run Service Pattern

Containerized web service on Cloud Run

**When to use**: Web applications and APIs,Need any runtime or library,Complex services with multiple endpoints,Stateless containerized workloads

```dockerfile
# Dockerfile - Multi-stage build for smaller image
FROM node:20-slim AS builder
WORKDIR /app
COPY package*.json ./
RUN npm ci --only=production

FROM node:20-slim
WORKDIR /app

# Copy only production dependencies
COPY --from=builder /app/node_modules ./node_modules
COPY src ./src
COPY package.json ./

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add martineserios/thebrana/gcp-cloud-run@sha256:ae17f87bb1bf5b7c

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260610.36508ae, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
