MCP Tools Reference: cloud-sql

Tool: create_instance

Initiates the creation of a Cloud SQL instance.

  • The tool returns a long-running operation. Use the get_operation tool to poll its status until the operation completes.
  • The instance creation operation can take several minutes. Use a command line tool to pause for 30 seconds before rechecking the status.
  • For MySQL and PostgreSQL instances, after you use the create_instance tool to create an instance, you can use the create_user tool to create an IAM user account for the user currently logged in to the project.
  • IMPORTANT: Set ipv4_enabled to 'false' if creating a Private Service Connect or a Private Service Access instance.
  • Set free_trial to 'true' to create a free trial instance. Free trial instances let you test majority of Cloud SQL features for up to 30 days without financial commitment. Subject to eligibility and availability.

  • The value of data_api_access is set to ALLOW_DATA_API by default. This setting lets you execute SQL statements using the execute_sql tool and the executeSql API.

Unless otherwise specified, a newly created instance uses the default instance configuration of a development environment.

The following is the default configuration for an instance in a development environment:

{
          "tier": "db-perf-optimized-N-2",
          "data_disk_size_gb": 100,
          "region": "us-central1",
          "database_version": "POSTGRES_18",
          "edition": "ENTERPRISE_PLUS",
          "availability_type": "ZONAL",
          "tags": [{"environment": "dev"}]
        }

The following configuration is recommended for an instance in a production environment:

{
          "tier": "db-perf-optimized-N-8",
          "data_disk_size_gb": 250,
          "region": "us-central1",
          "database_version": "POSTGRES_18",
          "edition": "ENTERPRISE_PLUS",
          "availability_type": "REGIONAL",
          "tags": [{"environment": "prod"}]
        }

The following instance configuration is recommended for SQL Server:

{
          "tier": "db-perf-optimized-N-8",
          "data_disk_size_gb": 250,
          "region": "us-central1",
          "database_version": "SQLSERVER_2022_STANDARD",
          "edition": "ENTERPRISE",
          "availability_type": "REGIONAL",
          "tags": [{"environment": "prod"}]
        }

Tool Annotations

Tool annotations are sent to MCP clients to describe the basic risk of a given tool. Most clients treat these hints as untrusted, but they can be used to decide when a confirmation prompt might be sent to a user.

Along with the title string, the following boolean hints are defined as follows:

  • readOnlyHint: If true, the tool doesn't modify its environment. Default: false.
  • destructiveHint: If true, then the tool can perform destructive actions. If false, then the tool can only perform additive actions. Default: true.
  • idempotentHint: If true, then calling the tool repeatedly with the same arguments will have no additional effect on its environment. Default: false.
  • openWorldHint: If true, then the tool can interact with an 'open world' of external entities. If false, then the tool can only interact with internal entities. For example, a web search tool would be open world, while a memory tool would not be open world.

Destructive Hint: ❌ | Idempotent Hint: ❌ | Read Only Hint: ❌ | Open World Hint: ❌
