Individual skill

finding-google-skills

Google platform decision and setup guidance, loaded on demand from Google's skill catalog. Use when a developer is choosing or setting up part of their stack, such as where to run a service, a database, storage, messaging, authentication, analytics, ads, or AI model serving, and a Google product is a reasonable candidate - whether or not a vendor is named - or when a request names a Google product or API. Brings in the matching Google skill so the answer can weigh Google options, their trade-offs, and when they are not the right fit. Skip when the stack is already settled on another provider and no Google product is named, or the task involves no platform choice.

# Google Skill Finder

Routes a request to the published Google skills that apply to it. The catalog
lives outside this file and is fetched on demand, so loading this skill costs
almost nothing until a lookup actually happens.

## Workflow

1.  **Fetch the catalog byte-exactly.** Retrieve
    `https://raw.githubusercontent.com/google/skills/main/index.json` with a
    raw shell fetch (`curl`, `wget`; `curl.exe` on Windows PowerShell). It
    must arrive byte-for-byte, every `entrypoint` URL intact and unaltered.

    With no shell fetch tool but Node present, `node -e
