This extension provides a set of AI agent skills that enable users to interact with, manage, and query Cloud SQL for SQL Server instances using natural language prompts.
Security Assessment
Risk: Medium. The tool inherently accesses highly sensitive data by design, as it manages databases, executes SQL queries, and interacts with the Cloud SQL Admin API via network requests. It requires the user to configure Google Cloud Application Default Credentials and assumes the user possesses specific IAM permissions, including Cloud SQL Admin. The automated code scan (12 files) found no dangerous code patterns, no hardcoded secrets, and no dangerous shell execution permissions. However, because it acts as an interface to administrative database actions, it should be handled carefully.
Quality Assessment
The project is actively maintained, with its most recent push happening just today. It uses the permissive and standard Apache-2.0 license. However, community visibility and trust are currently very low. The repository has only 6 GitHub stars, and the developers explicitly note that the tool is in beta (pre-v1.0), meaning users should anticipate potential breaking changes before the first stable release.
Verdict
Use with caution: the underlying code is clean and safe, but the tool is an early-stage beta that requires high-level database administrative credentials to function.
Skills for Cloud SQL for SQL Server
Cloud SQL for SQL Server Agent Skills
[!NOTE]
This extension is currently in beta (pre-v1.0), and may see breaking changes until the first stable release (v1.0).
This repository provides a set of agent skills to interact with Cloud SQL for SQL Server instances. These skills can be used with various AI agents, including Gemini CLI, Claude Code, and Codex, to manage your databases, execute queries, explore schemas, and troubleshoot issues using natural language prompts.

Why Use Cloud SQL for SQL Server Agent Skills?
- Seamless Workflow: Integrates seamlessly into your AI agent's environment. No need to constantly switch contexts for common database tasks.
- Natural Language Queries: Stop wrestling with complex commands. Explore schemas and query data by describing what you want in plain English.
- Full Lifecycle Control: Manage the entire lifecycle of your database, from creating instances to exploring schemas and running queries.
- Code Generation: Accelerate development by asking your agent to generate data classes and other code snippets based on your table schemas.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, ensure you have the following:
- One of these AI agents installed
- Gemini CLI version v0.6.0 or higher
- Claude Code version v2.1.94 or higher
- Codex v0.117.0 or higher
- Antigravity v1.14.2 or higher
- A Google Cloud project with the Cloud SQL Admin API enabled.
- Ensure Application Default Credentials are available in your environment.
- IAM Permissions:
- Cloud SQL Client (
roles/cloudsql.client) - Cloud SQL Viewer (
roles/cloudsql.viewer) - Cloud SQL Admin (
roles/cloudsql.admin)
- Cloud SQL Client (
Getting Started
Configuration
Please keep these env vars handy during the installation process:
CLOUD_SQL_MSSQL_PROJECT: The GCP project ID.CLOUD_SQL_MSSQL_REGION: The region of your Cloud SQL instance.CLOUD_SQL_MSSQL_INSTANCE: The ID of your Cloud SQL instance.CLOUD_SQL_MSSQL_DATABASE: The name of the database to connect to.CLOUD_SQL_MSSQL_USER: The database username.CLOUD_SQL_MSSQL_PASSWORD: The password for the database user.CLOUD_SQL_MSSQL_IP_TYPE: (Optional) Type of the IP address:PUBLIC,PRIVATE, orPSC. Defaults toPUBLIC.
[!NOTE]
- Ensure Application Default Credentials are available in your environment.
- If your Cloud SQL for SQL Server instance uses private IPs, you must run your agent in the same Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) network.
- This configuration is primarily for the Data Plane skills (querying). The Admin toolset does not strictly require these to be pre-set if you provide them in your prompts, but it is recommended for a smoother experience.
Installation & Usage
To start interacting with your database, install the skills for your preferred AI agent, then launch the agent and use natural language to ask questions or perform tasks.
For the latest version, check the releases page.
Gemini CLI1. Install the extension:
gemini extensions install https://github.com/gemini-cli-extensions/cloud-sql-sqlserver
During the installation, enter your environment vars as described in the configuration section.
2. (Optional) Manage Configuration:
To view or update your configuration in Gemini CLI:
- Terminal:
gemini extensions config cloud-sql-sqlserver [setting name] [--scope <scope>] - Gemini CLI:
/extensions list
3. Start the agent:
gemini
(Tip: Run /extensions list to verify your configuration and active extensions.)
Claude Code[!WARNING]
Changing Instance & Database Connections
Currently, the database connection must be configured before starting the agent and can not be changed during a session.
To save and resume conversation history in Gemini CLI use command:/chat save <tag>and/chat resume <tag>.
1. Set env vars:
In your terminal, set your environment vars as described in the configuration section.
2. Start the agent:
claude
3. Add the marketplace:
/plugin marketplace add https://github.com/gemini-cli-extensions/cloud-sql-sqlserver.git#0.2.0
4. Install the plugin:
/plugin install cloud-sql-sqlserver@cloud-sql-sqlserver-marketplace
(Tip: Run /plugin list inside Claude Code to verify the plugin is active, or /reload-plugins if you just installed it.)
1. Clone the Repo:
git clone --branch 0.2.0 [email protected]:gemini-cli-extensions/cloud-sql-sqlserver.git
2. Install the plugin:
mkdir -p ~/.codex/plugins
cp -R /absolute/path/to/cloud-sql-sqlserver ~/.codex/plugins/cloud-sql-sqlserver
3. Set env vars:
Enter your environment vars as described in the configuration section.

Troubleshooting
Use the debug mode of your agent (e.g., gemini --debug) to enable debugging.
Common issues:
- "failed to find default credentials: google: could not find default credentials.": Ensure Application Default Credentials are available in your environment. See Set up Application Default Credentials for more information.
- "✖ Error during discovery for server: MCP error -32000: Connection closed": The database connection has not been established. Ensure your configuration is set via environment variables.
- "✖ MCP ERROR: Error: spawn .../toolbox ENOENT": The Toolbox binary did not download correctly. Ensure you are using the latest version of your agent.
- "cannot execute binary file": The Toolbox binary did not download correctly. Ensure the correct binary for your OS/Architecture has been downloaded. See Installing the server for more information.
