Google Cloud Monitoring MCP server
9 tools · Last check that passed 27 Oct 2026, 01:50 UTC
Google's own remote MCP server for Cloud Monitoring gives an agent the time series, alerting policies, alerts and dashboards of the Google Cloud projects its sign-in reaches. Once a day, Stackduke connects to it the way any MCP client would, with no account and no sign-in, and lists its tools. It never runs them.

The tools the server listed at the last check that passed, at its default address and settings, with no sign-in; an account that signs in, or other settings, may see other tools. What a tool is counted as doing is Stackduke's cautious reading of the server's labels, the tool's name and its description: where they disagree it takes whichever says the tool can do most, so it overcounts on purpose. It does not say the server is safe, and it does not list what a tool cannot do. Descriptions are not shown, because they are written for models and may try to steer them.

Know when Google Cloud Monitoring's tools change.
One email when Google Cloud Monitoring's official MCP server adds, removes or changes tools, with what changed. Nothing else.
What to watch for
- Its monitoring scope can view and write monitoring data for all of your Google Cloud projects, and its monitoring.write scope publishes metric data. Google's Cloud Monitoring MCP documentation
- Alert policies, dashboards and labels written by other people come back to the agent, and text an agent reads can carry instructions for it. OWASP, prompt injection
How to limit it
With Google Cloud Monitoring's own settings, as its documentation describes them. Stackduke has not tested them.
- Google recommends a separate identity for agents that use MCP tools, so that their access can be controlled and monitored. Google's Cloud Monitoring MCP documentation
- IAM allow and deny policies can allow or refuse tool calls by principal, by service or tool name, by the application's OAuth client, or by whether a tool is marked read-only. Google's Cloud Monitoring MCP documentation
What Stackduke is designed to do
Stackduke is designed to sit between your agents and their MCP servers: to check each tool call against your rules before it runs, hold the risky ones for a person to approve, and keep a record of what was decided.
It does not yet forward or block tool calls for customers. Today it reads what this server offers and publishes what changes.
