Nightly stress test flagged Google Maps MCP server failing due to missing authentication. Server requires GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY environment variable.

Changes

  • Added env section to google-maps MCP server configuration in .github/workflows/nightly-mcp-stress-test.md
  • Configured to read GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY from repository secrets using ${{ secrets.GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY }}

Follows existing pattern from github server configuration (lines 31-32).

google-maps:
  type: stdio
  container: "mcp/google-maps"
  env:
    GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY: "${{ secrets.GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY }}"

Prerequisites

Repository maintainers must add GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY to repository secrets before next test run.

Original prompt

This section details on the original issue you should resolve

<issue_title>[mcp-stress-test] Google Maps MCP Server requires GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY authentication</issue_title>
<issue_description># MCP Server Authentication Required: Google Maps

The nightly stress test detected that the Google Maps MCP server requires authentication to function properly.

Test Details

  • Test Session: stress-test-20260204-180602
  • Test Date: 2026-02-04T18:06:02Z
  • Server Container: mcp/google-maps

Required Authentication Token

Environment Variable: GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY

Token Type: API Key

How to Obtain:

  1. Visit: (console.cloud.google.../redacted)
  2. Create a new project or use existing one
  3. Enable Google Maps Platform APIs
  4. Create API key in Credentials section
  5. Restrict key to Google Maps APIs
  6. Add to repository secrets as GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY

Suggested Configuration

Add the following to your MCP Gateway configuration:

{
  "google-maps": {
    "type": "stdio",
    "container": "mcp/google-maps",
    "env": {
      "GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY": "${GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY}"
    }
  }
}

Next Steps

  • Obtain GOOGLE_MAPS_API_KEY token
  • Add token to repository secrets
  • Update stress test configuration
  • Verify server works in next nightly test
  • Consider API key restrictions for security
