# Google Cloud Ninja
**Jump Skill** — Master orchestrator that routes Google Cloud tasks to 85+ specialized skills from official Google repositories.
## Purpose
This skill acts as an intelligent router to the comprehensive Google Cloud skills library. Instead of manually searching for the right skill, describe your GCP task and this skill will:
1. Identify the most relevant specialized skill(s)
2. Load the full skill instructions on demand
3. Execute the task with expert-level GCP knowledge

## Routing Logic
When a task arrives:
1. **GKE/Kubernetes?** → `gke-*` skills
2. **BigQuery?** → `bigquery-*` skills
3. **Database selection?** → `cloud-databases-onboarding`
4. **Specific database?** → `alloydb-basics`, `spanner-basics`, `cloud-sql-basics`, `bigtable-basics`
5. **Cloud Storage?** → `google-cloud-storage-*`
6. **Cloud Run?** → `cloud-run-basics`
7. **Logging?** → `cloud-logging-*`
8. **Monitoring/metrics?** → `cloud-monitoring-*`
9. **Security/IAM?** → `iam-helper-*`, `google-cloud-scc-query`
10. **Well-Architected?** → `google-cloud-waf-*`
11. **Networking?** → `google-cloud-global-frontend-configuration`, `google-cloud-networking-observability`
12. **Getting started?** → `google-cloud-recipe-*`
## Execution Pattern
```
1. Announce: "Routing to [skill-name]..."
2. Load: Read the SKILL.md from the path in the catalog
3. Execute: Follow the skill's instructions
4. Cite: Reference the skill in the response
```
