Cloud de Confiance by S3NS provides a wide range of interfaces and tools to help you be more productive. Whether you prefer a point-and-click graphical interface, a cloud-hosted development environment, or an AI-assisted command-line, you can choose the path that best aligns with your workflow. Mix and match these interfaces and tools to create pipelines for development, deployment, and monitoring.
Graphical interfaces
Use graphical interfaces for visual resource management, administrative tasks, and high-level overviews of your cloud footprint.
Cloud de Confiance console
If you prefer to manage your Cloud de Confiance projects and resources through a graphical user interface, use the web-based Cloud de Confiance console. It serves as your primary hub for:
- Resource creation and orchestration: Deploy, scale, and monitor cloud infrastructure.
- Administration and governance: Manage Identity and Access Management (IAM) (IAM) policies, configure billing accounts, and audit system activity.
- Data management and visualization: Store, query, and process data across databases and analytics services.
- Integrated assistance: Use AI-assisted features to ask questions about your architecture or troubleshoot errors as they appear.
To ensure proper console functionality, see Allow access to Cloud de Confiance console domains.
Cloud de Confiance mobile app
The Cloud de Confiance mobile app, available on iOS and Android, is a mobile companion to the web-based Cloud de Confiance console. Use it to monitor services, respond to incidents, and perform basic resource management directly from a mobile device.
Development environments
Development environments offer pre-configured, contextual, and often cloud-hosted spaces to build and manage your applications.
Cloud Shell (and Cloud Shell Editor)
Cloud Shell provides a web-based command-line environment that includes the Google Cloud CLI and other command-line tools. Use Cloud Shell as an interactive, web-based terminal to interact with Cloud de Confiance without installing anything locally.
Cloud Shell also comes with Cloud Shell Editor, a built-in code editor that lets you browse file directories, view and edit files, and maintain continued access to Cloud Shell. Cloud Shell Editor is available by default with every Cloud Shell instance and is based on Code OSS.
Antigravity 2.0
For agent orchestration, Antigravity 2.0 provides a GUI environment to manage parallel autonomous subagents, run scheduled tasks, and orchestrate workflows across editor, terminal, and browser.
Cloud Workstations
Cloud Workstations provides managed, customizable development environments on Cloud de Confiance. Platform teams can use Cloud Workstations to provide developers with standardized, containerized IDEs (such as IntelliJ IDEA or VS Code). This approach helps to ensure consistent security across the organization by keeping development environments within your Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) network.
Cloud Code
Cloud Code extends supported integrated development environments (IDEs)—including VS Code, IntelliJ IDEA, and Cloud Shell Editor—to help you build and deploy applications on Cloud de Confiance. Use Cloud Code for cluster management for Google Kubernetes Engine, direct deployment to Cloud Run, and Gemini-powered code assistance within your IDE.
Developer tools
Developer tools include command-line interfaces (CLIs), programmatic client libraries, and utilities that enable modern software engineering practices.
Google Cloud SDK
The Google Cloud SDK provides programmatic access to Cloud de Confiance through command-line tools and client libraries:
- Cloud Client Libraries: Use language-idiomatic libraries (such as Python, Go, and Java) to call Cloud de Confiance APIs directly within your application code. For centralized client library installation and setup instructions, see Cloud Client Libraries.
- Google Cloud CLI: Use the primary command-line tool to manage and configure Cloud de Confiance resources, create scripts, and automate CI/CD pipelines. For centralized installation and setup instructions, see Install the Google Cloud CLI.
AI-powered command-line tools
AI-powered command-line interfaces let you manage Cloud de Confiance resources and develop applications using natural language. For example, the Antigravity CLI is an agentic command-line tool that supports coding, code generation, research, task management, and cloud orchestration.
MCP servers and Agent Skills
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that acts as a bridge between AI models and your data sources or tools. Connect your AI applications (such as Antigravity IDE, VS Code, or Cursor) to remote MCP servers to gather more context, ground responses in product data, or perform specific tasks:
- Developer Knowledge MCP: Provide your AI tools with direct access to the latest Cloud de Confiance documentation and best practices. For more information, see Developer Knowledge MCP.
- Cloud de Confiance remote MCP servers: Enable large language models (LLMs) to use Google and Cloud de Confiance services in your AI applications through remote MCP servers and product-specific tools. For an overview of MCP architecture and capabilities, see Cloud de Confiance MCP servers.
- Agent Skills and Agent Registry: Use Agent Registry to discover, reuse, and govern autonomous AI agents and MCP tools across your organization. Agent Skills represent high-level capabilities possessed by autonomous agents (such as Agent2Agent capabilities) that your AI orchestrators can discover and consume, removing the need to build custom integrations for each new workflow.
Discover remote MCP servers and Agent Skills
Cloud de Confiance offers remote MCP servers for a growing subset of products. These remote servers run on Google infrastructure and provide HTTP endpoints for your AI applications. To discover whether remote MCP servers and agent skills exist for a given product, use the following methods:
- Review supported products: To check if a Cloud de Confiance product offers a remote MCP server, toolsets, or reference documentation, see the centralized Supported products table. This page provides the direct MCP server endpoints, MCP reference documentation, and user guides for each supported service.
- Discover capabilities programmatically: Once a remote MCP server is
configured for your project or registered in
Agent Registry, AI applications can
programmatically discover the server's capabilities—such as available tools,
prompts, and data resources—using standard MCP discovery methods (for example,
tools/list,prompts/list, andresources/list) or by querying the Agent Registry API.
Infrastructure as code (IaC) tools
For teams practicing DevOps, Cloud de Confiance supports industry-standard infrastructure as code (IaC) tools—such as Terraform, Pulumi, and Config Connector—to manage infrastructure through declarative configuration files.
Using IaC lets you store your infrastructure definitions in source control, enabling repeatable deployments, automated testing, and audit logging as part of your change management process.
Integrated AI assistance
Cloud de Confiance also includes direct AI integration into developer workflows for contextual knowledge and assistance.
Gemini for Cloud de Confiance (web and mobile)
Gemini for Cloud de Confiance offers generative AI-powered assistance to Cloud de Confiance users, including developers and data scientists. Gemini for Cloud de Confiance is embedded in many Cloud de Confiance products and provides an integrated assistance experience using the context of your specific project:
- In the Cloud de Confiance console: Use the integrated Gemini Cloud Assist sidebar to ask natural language questions about your environment (for example, "Why is my GKE cluster showing a high error rate?") or to generate complex BigQuery SQL from a prompt.
- In the Cloud de Confiance mobile app: Use voice and chat interfaces to monitor incidents and get AI-driven troubleshooting summaries while away from your desk.
- In development environments: Use Gemini Code Assist in your IDE to write, refactor, and document application code.
- For infrastructure lifecycle management: Use Gemini Cloud Assist to design, deploy, and optimize your cloud resources.
