listing.about

Connects to Google Cloud Pub/Sub so an assistant can create, inspect, update, list and delete topics, subscriptions and snapshots, and publish messages to an existing topic. Subscription creation supports options such as dead letter policy, message ordering, exactly-once delivery, and BigQuery, Bigtable or Cloud Storage delivery.

Runs as a hosted remote endpoint at https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp using streamable HTTP. Access uses Google OAuth 2.0 and IAM permissions on the target project. The MCP endpoint must be enabled for the project first. Several tools are destructive, such as deleting topics, subscriptions and snapshots.

Claude Code

  1. Run this in a terminal, in your project folder:
claude mcp add --transport http google-pubsub https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp
  1. Start Claude Code, type /mcp, pick google-pubsub and choose Authenticate. A browser window opens for the Google Cloud sign-in.

Add --scope user to make it available in every project, not just this one.

Claude Desktop

  1. Open Settings → Connectors and click Add custom connector.
  2. Name it Google Cloud Pub/Sub and paste this URL:
https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp
  1. Click Add, then Connect, and sign in when Google Cloud asks.

Claude Desktop's JSON config file only starts local servers. Remote servers go through Connectors, and connectors you add on claude.ai show up here too.

claude.ai

  1. Open the connector form on claude.ai. This button fills in the name and URL for you:
  1. Check that the URL reads https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp and click Add.
  2. Click Connect and sign in when Google Cloud asks.

Free plans allow one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans an owner adds it under Organization settings → Connectors.

ChatGPT

  1. On chatgpt.com, open Settings → Security and login and turn on Developer mode.
  2. Go to chatgpt.com/plugins and click + to create an app for a remote MCP server.
  3. Paste https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp as the server URL and choose OAuth. ChatGPT sends you to Google Cloud to sign in.

Developer mode is available on the web for Plus, Pro, Business, Enterprise and Education accounts.

Cursor

Or add it by hand to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (all projects) or .cursor/mcp.json (this project):

mcp.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "google-pubsub": {
      "url": "https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cursor shows Needs login next to the server. Click it to sign in.

VS Code

Or from a terminal:

code --add-mcp '{"name":"google-pubsub","type":"http","url":"https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp"}'

Or commit it to the repo in .vscode/mcp.json:

.vscode/mcp.json
{
  "servers": {
    "google-pubsub": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

VS Code asks you to sign in the first time the server starts.

Devin Desktop

  1. Add it to ~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json (macOS and Linux) or %APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json (Windows):
mcp_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "google-pubsub": {
      "serverUrl": "https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade and sign in when asked.

Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf. It reads serverUrl (or url) for remote servers.

Codex

codex mcp add google-pubsub --url https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp
codex mcp login google-pubsub

Or edit ~/.codex/config.toml directly:

config.toml
[mcp_servers.google-pubsub]
url = "https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp"

Gemini CLI

gemini mcp add --transport http google-pubsub https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp

Then, inside Gemini CLI, run /mcp auth google-pubsub to sign in.

This adds it to the current project. Add -s user to use it everywhere.

Any client

Most clients accept this shape. Some name the URL field differently: serverUrl in Devin Desktop, httpUrl in Gemini CLI's settings file.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "google-pubsub": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Zed puts servers under context_servers in its settings. Cline needs "type": "streamableHttp", or it assumes SSE.

Client only starts local servers? Bridge it with npx -y mcp-remote https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp.

listing.faq

Can I paste mcp.tc/i/google-pubsub into my MCP client?

No. mcp.tc links are pages, not server addresses. Connect with https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp, so your client talks to Google Cloud Pub/Sub directly. The sign-in token only works there anyway. The quick link is for sharing: it opens this page, with setup steps for every client.

Does Google Cloud Pub/Sub need an API key or a sign-in?

Yes, you need a Google Cloud account. The first time your client connects, it opens Google Cloud's sign-in page. The token goes straight to the server's own URL, never through mcp.tc.

Is Google Cloud Pub/Sub a remote or a local server?

Remote. Google Cloud hosts it at https://pubsub.googleapis.com/mcp, and it speaks Streamable HTTP. There's nothing to install.

What can Google Cloud Pub/Sub do?

It has 15 tools, including create_topic, update_topic and delete_topic. You can create, update, get, list and delete Pub/Sub topics, create, update, get, list and delete subscriptions and create, get, list and delete snapshots.

Which clients can use it?

Any client that supports remote MCP servers: Claude Code, Claude Desktop, claude.ai, ChatGPT in developer mode, Cursor, VS Code, Devin Desktop, Codex, Gemini CLI, Zed and others. The setup steps cover each one.

Who wrote this page?

mcp.tc's robot read Google Cloud Pub/Sub's own metadata (its MCP handshake, tool list and public pages), and an AI model drafted the text from it. A person reviews anything the checks can't confirm. The text can still be wrong, so if you spot a mistake, use Report this listing on this page.
