GA adds support for BigQuery Graph, Bigtable, and Managed Service for Apache Spark for Lakehouse access, alongside quality-of-life improvements. It works as a VS Code/Cursor IDE extension or CLI plugin, letting agents inspect schemas, run queries, read job logs, and manage resources using the user's own IAM permissions. New skills cover graph authoring, Bigtable schema design, Lakehouse federation to AWS Glue and Databricks Unity Catalog, and pipeline orchestration with dbt, Dataform, and Apache Airflow. It's included at no additional cost beyond standard Google Cloud service pricing. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it. Read it at the original source: ## Questions this post answers ### What new Google Cloud services does Data Agent Kit support now that it's generally available? General availability adds support for BigQuery Graph, Bigtable, and Managed Service for Apache Spark for Lakehouse access, joining previously supported services like Spanner, AlloyDB, and Cloud SQL. Data Agent Kit is a free set of MCP tools and Google-authored skills connecting coding agents to more than 15 Google Data Cloud services with schema inspection, query execution, and job log access. _Track new MCP integrations like this as you wire coding agents into cloud data platforms on daily.dev._ ### How do I install Data Agent Kit for Claude Code or Codex CLI? For Claude Code, run 'claude plugin install data-agent-kit-starter-pack@claude-plugins-official'. For Codex CLI, run 'codex plugin marketplace add GoogleCloudPlatform/data-agent-kit-plugin' followed by 'codex plugin add dak@dak-marketplace'. It can also be installed as a VS Code, Antigravity IDE, or Cursor extension, or used pre-installed in Cloud Shell and Cloud Workstations. _daily.dev surfaces setup guides like this when you're wiring new MCP plugins into your agent workflow._ ### How does Data Agent Kit enforce access control and security for AI agents querying cloud data? The agent connects as the user or as an impersonated service account, so row- and column-level security policies apply automatically to every query. Admins can additionally govern MCP access through IAM, screen MCP traffic with Model Armor, and scope agents using VPC Service Controls and Principal Access Boundary policies, keeping agent-driven queries within existing permission boundaries. _Developers securing AI agent access to production data can follow guidance like this on daily.dev._ ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Agentic analytics with the Data Agent Kit](https://daily.dev/posts/agentic-analytics-with-the-data-agent-kit-x17uuiicq) · Google Cloud · 0 upvotes · 0 comments - [Build data pipelines in less time with Data Agent Kit](https://daily.dev/posts/build-data-pipelines-in-less-time-with-data-agent-kit-k8cquzavs) · Google Cloud · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [New data agents across the Agentic Data Cloud](https://daily.dev/posts/new-data-agents-across-the-agentic-data-cloud-rloguobap) · Google Cloud · 1 upvotes · 0 comments - [Cortex Code Expands: One Governed Agent for Your Entire Data Stack, Everywhere You Work](https://daily.dev/posts/cortex-code-expands-one-governed-agent-for-your-entire-data-stack-everywhere-you-work-0eskqpvho) · Snowflake · 0 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#gcp](https://daily.dev/tags/gcp), [#mcp](https://daily.dev/tags/mcp), [#google-bigquery](https://daily.dev/tags/google-bigquery) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/data-agent-kit-is-now-ga-bring-google-data-cloud-to-any-coding-agent-8lwxkuzu1) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"Data Agent Kit is now GA: Bring Google Data Cloud to any coding agent","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/data-agent-kit-is-now-ga-bring-google-data-cloud-to-any-coding-agent-8lwxkuzu1","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/data-agent-kit-is-now-ga-bring-google-data-cloud-to-any-coding-agent-8lwxkuzu1"},"datePublished":"2026-09-30T13:22:10.565Z","dateModified":"2026-09-30T13:22:36.078Z","description":"Google Cloud Data Agent Kit, a free set of MCP tools and agent skills that connects coding agents like Claude Code, Codex, and Antigravity to Google Data Cloud...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/58ca057f068f1ae2a5bdd05e92e2c3b9?_a=AQAEuop","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/58ca057f068f1ae2a5bdd05e92e2c3b9?_a=AQAEuop","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"Google Cloud","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Google Cloud","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/t_logo,f_auto/v1/logos/gcp","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/gcp"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/data-agent-kit-is-now-ga-bring-google-data-cloud-to-any-coding-agent-8lwxkuzu1","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":0},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"gcp,mcp,google-bigquery","timeRequired":"PT8M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Google Cloud","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/gcp"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"Data Agent Kit is now GA: Bring Google Data Cloud to any coding agent"}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/data-agent-kit-is-now-ga-bring-google-data-cloud-to-any-coding-agent-8lwxkuzu1#faq","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"What new Google Cloud services does Data Agent Kit support now that it's generally available?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"General availability adds support for BigQuery Graph, Bigtable, and Managed Service for Apache Spark for Lakehouse access, joining previously supported services like Spanner, AlloyDB, and Cloud SQL.
