Starting with 13 skills covering products like BigQuery, GKE, Firebase, Cloud Run, and the Gemini API, plus Well-Architected Pillar skills for Security, Reliability, and Cost Optimization. Skills are Markdown-based, loaded on-demand to avoid context bloat — a common problem with MCP servers — and can be installed via `npx skills install github.com/google/skills` for use with agents like Gemini CLI and Antigravity. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
