Scale agents securely with IAM Helper Agent Skills and MCP Tools

From the source

As organizations adopt autonomous agents to build applications, securing identities and access has become more challenging. Developers relying on agents to provision cloud resources, write Terraform, and deploy microservices at machine-speed only find their CI/CD pipelines blo cked even faster as security friction scales. To help you get ahead of agentic-era Identity and Access Management, today we’re introducing IAM Helper. This suite of intelligent, agent-facing building blocks can automate complex, end-to-end IAM workflows. As an agent-native orchestration and interface layer for Google Cloud IAM, it augments Google Cloud’s core IAM engines — including Policy Intelligence and Privileged Access Manager (PAM) — making IAM skills callable directly by autonomous code assistants, deployment pipelines, and custom agents. Using this functionality reduces the administrative overhead of maintaining least-privilege security and agent governance, while maximizing utility, and accelerating deployment.
