Google makes Data Agent Kit generally available, splits agent guardrails between skills and IAM
Google has made its Data Agent Kit generally available as an open-source, free integration that connects coding agents to over fifteen Google Data Cloud services and ships 37 versioned skills (Apache 2.0). The release emphasizes two control layers—advisory ‘‘skills’’ that teach best practices (e.g., accidental-data-loss-prevention) and enforceable access controls via IAM (including deny rules like blocking mcp.googleapis.com/tools.call)—while noting limits (blocked tools still appear in listings, controls cover only Google MCP servers, and some attributes are gcloud-only).
