How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically against the live server, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Endpoint Security46
- The endpoint's TLS certificate is valid, in date, and uses a strong key. View diagnostics → Pass
- Authorisation check failed: no authorisation is required to call this server, and it exposes a tool marked destructive (deploy_service_from_image). See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- HTTPS enforcement could not be verified: the plaintext port answered with HTTP 405, which proves neither a plaintext path nor enforcement. View diagnostics → Unverified
- HSTS check failed: the Strict-Transport-Security header is absent. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
- DNSSEC check failed: this domain isn't protected by DNSSEC. See how to fix → View diagnostics → Fail
Transport & Reachability100
- Verified streamable-http transport via a live MCP handshake. View diagnostics → Pass
Schema Quality & AI Usability85
- 100% of prompts and resources have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the item's name).Pass
- AI-judged instruction clarity (excellent).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 628 tokens (~125/item across 5 items; 5 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management100
- No destabilizing schema changes in the last 30 days.Pass
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
- Structured output schemas are declared (100% of tools); any adoption earns full credit.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- All 3 tool(s) whose name or description implies an irreversible operation declare an MCP destructiveHint annotation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 5 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass
How do I install the Google Cloud Run MCP server?
Google Cloud Run is a hosted endpoint at https://run.googleapis.com/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
deploy_service_from_archive ~309
Deploy a Cloud Run service directly from a self-contained source code archive (.tar.gz), skipping the container image build step for faster deployment. The archive must include all dependencies: - For compiled languages (Go, Java), include pre-compiled binaries. - For scripting languages (Python, Node.js), include pre-installed libraries (e.g., vendor/, node_modules/). Deployment steps: 1. Package source code and dependencies into a .tar.gz archive (max 250MiB). It's recommended to create archive from the root of the application's source directory. 2. Upload the archive to a Google Cloud Storage bucket, preferably in the same region as the service. 3. Deploy to Cloud Run using this tool, specifying: - source_code: Google Cloud Storage object path to the archive (e.g., gs://bucket/object). - command: Command to start the application. - base_image_uri: Base image for the container (e.g., go124, nodejs24, python314). See https://docs.cloud.google.com/run/docs/configuring/services/runtime-base-images for options. The runtime picked should match the local environment. - args: (Optional) Arguments for the command. - env: (Optional) Environment variables (e.g., name: `PYTHONPATH`, value: `./vendor`). - ports: (Optional) Container ports to expose (defaults to 8080).

deploy_service_from_file_contents ~148
Deploys a Cloud Run service directly from local source files. This method is suitable for scripting languages like Python and Node.js, of which the source code can be embedded in the request. This is ideal for quick tests and development feedback loops. You must include all necessary dependencies within the source files because it skips the build step for faster deployment. **Key Requirements:** 1. source_code: Should set to sourceCode.inlinedSource.sources with array of source files, each having `filename` and `content`. 2. Size limit: you are subject to total request size limit of 50MiB.

Is the Google Cloud Run MCP server safe to use?
Google Cloud Run scores 76 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.
What tools does the Google Cloud Run MCP server expose?
Google Cloud Run exposes 5 tools: get_service, list_services, deploy_service_from_image, deploy_service_from_archive, deploy_service_from_file_contents. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 628 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Does the Google Cloud Run MCP server require authentication?
No. We connected to Google Cloud Run without credentials and it answered, so anything it exposes is reachable by anyone who knows the address.
Is the Google Cloud Run MCP server still maintained?
Google Cloud Run is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 20 September 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
