google-cloud-global-frontend-configuration
Guides agents through a 6-step discovery process to design and deploy Google Cloud global external Application Load Balancers with Cloud CDN, Cloud Armor, and Service Extensions, mapping workload requirements to best-practice configurations. Use when: - Designing, configuring, or deploying a Google Cloud global external Application Load Balancer, Cloud CDN, Cloud Armor WAF, or Service Extensions. - Discovering existing Google Cloud resources (Cloud Storage, MIGs, GKE, Cloud Run) to use as backends. - Generating production-grade Terraform HCL or gcloud CLI scripts for global external Application Load Balancers. - Actuating deployments via Infrastructure Manager or bash scripts, including IAM pre-checks. - Detecting, analyzing, or reconciling configuration drift on deployed global external Application Load Balancers. Don't use for: - Non-Google Cloud load balancing or security configurations. - Purely regional or internal load balancing setups (unless part of a hybrid/failover global design).

MUST read [Usage Attribution](references/attribution.md). For commands executed
directly in the terminal (never in generated scripts, Terraform, or user code),
prefix `gcloud` with
`CLOUDSDK_METRICS_REQUEST_ATTRIBUTION="agent-skills/1.0 (skill:google-cloud-global-frontend-configuration)"`
and append
