Streamable HTTP

## Authentication

Google Cloud authentication: OAuth 2.0 using Application Default Credentials (ADC) in supported Google clients, or a client OAuth ID/secret or bearer token in compatible third-party clients. The principal needs mcp.tools.call plus the underlying product permissions; API key authentication is only available for services that explicitly support it.

## Tools

- **list_log_entries**: Use this as the primary tool to search and retrieve log entries from Google Cloud Logging. It's essential for debugging application behavior, finding specific error messages, or auditing events. The 'filter' is powerful and can be used to select logs by severity, resource type, text content, and more. IMPORTANT: This tool will only work with a single resource project at a time. Calls with multiple resource projects will fail.
- **list_log_names**: Use this as the primary tool to list the log names in a Google Cloud project. This is useful for discovering what logs are available for a project. Only logs which have log entries will be listed.
- **get_bucket**: Use this as the primary tool to get a specific log bucket by name. Log buckets are containers that store and organize your log data.
- **list_buckets**: Use this as the primary tool to list the log buckets in a Google Cloud project. Log buckets are containers that store and organize your log data. This tool is useful for understanding how your logs are stored and for managing your logging configurations.
- **get_view**: Use this as the primary tool to get a specific view on a log bucket. Log views provide fine-grained access control to the logs in your buckets.
- **list_views**: Use this as the primary tool to list the log views in a given log bucket. Log views provide fine-grained access control to the logs in your buckets. This is useful for managing who has access to which logs.
