Firebase Vertex AI

Operate Firebase projects end-to-end (Auth, Firestore, Functions, Hosting) and integrate Gemini/Vertex AI safely for AI-powered features.

Overview

Use this skill to design, implement, and deploy Firebase applications that call Vertex AI/Gemini from Cloud Functions (or other GCP services) with secure secrets handling, least-privilege IAM, and production-ready observability.

Prerequisites

• Node.js runtime and Firebase CLI access for the target project
• A Firebase project (billing enabled for Functions/Vertex AI as needed)
• Vertex AI API enabled and permissions to call Gemini/Vertex AI from your backend
• Secrets managed via env vars or Secret Manager (never in client code)
