Connect your company's Google Cloud project to Cakewalk so agents can manage Compute Engine instances, disks and snapshots through the gateway.
Connect your company's Google Cloud project to Cakewalk's MCP Gateway. Every agent tool call against Compute Engine passes through the gateway and is evaluated against your Policies.
Google Cloud project owner or editor who can create OAuth 2.0 clients in Google Auth Platform.
Compute Engine API enabled in the project. The MCP server is enabled automatically when the API is on.
[VERIFY: confirm with Cakewalk eng before publish; Google does not enumerate the Compute Engine MCP server's scope strings in fetched docs. Standard Google Cloud conventions apply.]
When you create the OAuth client, the Google Auth Platform will associate it with your project's APIs. IAM role on the user account behind the OAuth flow determines what tools the agent can access (e.g., roles/compute.admin for full management, roles/compute.viewer for read only).
In your Google Cloud project, enable the Compute Engine API. The Compute Engine MCP server activates automatically.
In Google Cloud Console, go to Google Auth Platform > Clients > Create client.
For Application type, select Web application.
In the Authorized redirect URIs section, click + Add URI and enter:
Create the client.
The OAuth 2.0 client created dialog shows the credentials. In the Client secrets section, copy the secret value. Treat client secrets like passwords and store them in a secure place; Google does not redisplay the secret value.
Go to All Connections.
Find Google Compute Engine.
Click Edit credentials.
Paste the Client ID and Client Secret.
Save.
The Google Compute Engine Connection card flips to Active on All Connections. From an agent platform connected to Cakewalk, ask the agent to list VM instances in your project. If Compute Engine returns results, the Connection is live.
Invalid redirect URI on consent: confirm the Authorized redirect URIs entry matches https://mcp-gateway.getcakewalk.io/api/v1/Auth/Callback exactly.
Tools return permission denied: the user account behind the OAuth flow must hold the appropriate Compute Engine IAM role on the project.
Tools return "API not enabled": confirm the Compute Engine API is enabled in the project.
