Finds and inspects data assets within Google Cloud. Relevant when any of the following conditions are true: 1. The user request involves finding, exploring, or inspecting data assets in Google Cloud, such as: - BigQuery datasets, tables, or views - BigLake catalog or tables - Spanner instances, databases or tables - etc. 2. You need to retrieve the schema, metadata, or governance policies for a GCP data asset. 3. You have a keyword or topic (e.g., "sales data") but lack the specific table or resource ID. 4. You are attempting to find data using `bq ls`, as this skill offers a superior approach. Don't use when: - Assets are outside Google Cloud

Step 1: Prioritize Assets from the Conversation
If the asset was created or mentioned earlier in the same conversation, then proceed with that asset instead of searching. Skip steps 2, 3, and 4.
Step 2: Handle Public Datasets or Proceed to Search
Dataplex Lookup Context provides the richest metadata for data assets. You MUST prioritize using it for all Google Cloud assets, even if you already know their IDs.
- Public Datasets (Direct Inspection): If the requested asset belongs to
the
bigquery-public-dataproject, Dataplex Lookup Context will fail. You
