Can this skill identify unused Google Cloud resources?

Yes, it provides specific gcloud commands and scripts to find unattached disks, reserved but unused static IPs, and idle VMs based on CPU utilization metrics.

Does it support serverless cost optimization?

Absolutely, it includes best-practice configurations for Cloud Run to maximize concurrency, minimize cold starts, and cap costs through effective scaling limits.

How does it improve BigQuery cost management?

The skill provides patterns for data partitioning, clustering, and setting maximum bytes billed limits to prevent runaway query costs in large datasets.

How does the GCP Resource Optimizer help with expiring credits?

It calculates your required daily burn rate and identifies high-value tasks like ML model training or dataset generation to ensure expiring credits provide lasting value rather than just ephemeral compute.
