Google Cloud Platform (GCP) development best practices for Cloud Functions, Cloud Run, Firestore, BigQuery, and Infrastructure as Code.

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 Development Best Practices

## Overview

This skill provides comprehensive guidelines for developing applications on Google Cloud Platform (GCP), covering serverless computing, data services, Infrastructure as Code with Terraform, and security best practices.

## Core Principles

- Write clean, well-structured code using GCP client libraries
- Use Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) for all infrastructure management
- Follow Google Cloud security best practices and compliance guidelines
- Implement comprehensive logging with Cloud Logging and monitoring with Cloud Monitoring

## Code Organization and Structure

├── versions.tf       # Provider versions
├── terraform.tfvars  # Variable values
└── modules/

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add mindrally/skills/gcp-development@sha256:4cebaf9225b51d87

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261008.7682ca7, 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.
