What is the Google Cloud Storage MCP Server?
Connect your Google Cloud Storage project to your AI agent and streamline your cloud data management. Use natural language to browse buckets, inspect file metadata, manage object lifecycles, and audit security permissions across your global storage infrastructure.
What you can do
- Bucket Exploration — List all buckets in your project and retrieve detailed metadata including location and storage class
- Object Management — Browse files within buckets using prefixes (folders), view sizes, and delete or copy objects effortlessly
- Data Operations — Upload text-based content directly or initiate object copies between buckets via simple commands
- Security Auditing — Check Access Control Lists (ACLs) and IAM policies for both buckets and individual objects to ensure compliance
- Project Insights — Retrieve service account details and manage HMAC keys for legacy or cross-cloud integrations
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Google Cloud Project ID and OAuth credentials
- Complete the secure Google Cloud authorization flow
- Start managing your cloud storage from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
No more manual navigation through the GCP Console for routine file checks. Your AI agent acts as your cloud storage administrator, handling the JSON API for you.
Who is this for?
- Cloud Engineers — quickly check if a specific build artifact or log file exists in a bucket without opening the console
- Data Scientists — browse datasets and verify file sizes or modification dates via natural language
- Security Teams — audit bucket permissions and public access settings instantly through conversational queries

Frequently asked questions
Can I upload large files directly through this server?
The upload_object tool is designed for small to medium text-based content. For very large binary files or production datasets, it is recommended to use the gsutil CLI or the Google Cloud Console to ensure optimal transfer speeds and integrity.
How do I check if a bucket is publicly accessible?
You can use the list_bucket_acl or get_bucket_iam tools. The AI agent will retrieve the permissions and can identify if roles like 'allUsers' or 'allAuthenticatedUsers' have been granted access.
Can I move files between different buckets?
Yes! Use the copy_object tool to copy an object from a source bucket to a destination bucket. To 'move' it, you would typically copy the object first and then use delete_object on the source.
How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
