Summary

Wizard now provisions a custom role cudlyRecommendationReader with only recommender.usageCommitmentRecommendations.list and grants it (project scope) next to roles/compute.viewer and cudlyCommitmentPurchaser. Docs state the exact contract: resource projects/PROJECT_ID/locations/REGION/recommenders/google.compute.commitment.UsageCommitmentRecommender, project-scoped; no billing-account grant is needed because the pinned SDK never queries billingAccounts parents.

  • ensureGCPPurchaserRole generalized to ensureGCPCustomRole (same fail-loud validation: exact name, enabled, not soft-deleted, exactly one permission via slices.Equal, so reruns are idempotent and a differing role fails loud).
  • Both roles are ensured before the first setIamPolicy write; step 4 prints the recommender.googleapis.com prerequisite (no enable step) and names both permissions in the [R]un prompt.
  • Cloud SQL and Memorystore recommenders are documented as not provisioned (their calls 403 and are tolerated as a warning for that service).

Verification (fixture / request-shape only)

  • go test ./cmd: 1084 passed. New scenarios: reader-create, reader-extra-permission, reader-deleted, reader-wrong-name; write counts updated (3 grants, 2 when viewer already unconditional).
  • Pre-fix (original configure_gcp.go with the new tests): create, empty, reuse fail with real assertion errors (no reader role read/create, no reader binding).
  • NOT verified: that a project custom role accepts recommender.usageCommitmentRecommendations.list, and live access of an identity with only these grants. Needs an authorized test project; no live GCP calls were made.

Closes #2124

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • GCP setup now grants the permissions needed to view Compute commitment recommendations.
    • Setup checks that the recommendation role is enabled and has only the required permission, and reports an error if it is incompatible.
  • Documentation
    • Clarified that the Recommender API must be enabled before setup and that Cloud SQL and Memorystore recommendations are not covered by these permissions. Permission errors for those services appear as warnings, while other services continue.

The wizard granted only Compute Viewer and a custom role with
compute.commitments.create, so a newly configured identity could not call
the project-scoped UsageCommitmentRecommender. Add a second single-permission
custom role (cudlyRecommendationReader: recommender.usageCommitmentRecommendations.list),
ensure both roles before the first setIamPolicy write, print the
recommender.googleapis.com prerequisite, and document the permission contract
and project vs billing scope.

Closes #2124

Add the reader role to the manual migration steps.

Line 141 makes cudlyRecommendationReader a required role, but the manual path in Lines 210-214 still grants only Compute Viewer and cudlyCommitmentPurchaser. An operator who follows that path can pass the Compute permission check and then encounter a permission error during read-only recommendation analysis. Add the reader role to the manual grant instructions and its list permission to the permission check. Google Cloud identifies that permission as required to list resource-based CUD recommendations.
