XML to CSV or JSON using Cloud Function
Your Cloud Function would be written in Node.js, Python, Go, Java, C#, Ruby, or PHP; pick the one you're most comfortable with. It would get the name and bucket of the newly uploaded XML file as an input parameter. It would then load the file and call a library that makes the conversion. Example libraries: xml-js (for Node), xmltodict (for Python).

Did I reinvent a wheel?
Go with xmltodict. Works pretty fine, and you just have to drop any key begining with @ or # (if there is not already an option for that).

Top python libraries/ frameworks that you suggest every one
Nope, sorry, it's just an XML generator. The Python stdlib offers https://docs.python.org/3/library/xml.etree.elementtree.html and PyPI offers https://github.com/martinblech/xmltodict for parsing, and you could write CSV with csvwriter or pandas.

Like JQ, but for HTML
xmlstarlet is really nothing like jq, as a language. But yes, I use it because it is the best commandline xml processor I'd found. That's the only similarity to jq.
Is this the yq? https://kislyuk.github.io/yq/ It does contain an 'xq', as a literal wrapper for jq, piping output into it after transcoding XML to JSON using xmltodict https://github.com/martinblech/xmltodict (which explodes xml into separate JSON data structures).
This is a bash one-liner! But TBF it really is a 'jq for xml'. I think it would be horrible for some things, but you could also do a lot of useful things painlessly.

I used raw data from my watch (and Python) to make a map of all the NH48 hikes from this year. I hiked Liberty and Flume before I got the watch in June, so I need to do those again! Color-coded by altitude.
Super-easy, take a look at xmltodict https://github.com/martinblech/xmltodict xmltodict.parse(xml_str) gets you a dictionary

How to troubleshoot yaml parsing error "did not find expected key"?
Install jq and yq, and wrap your commands with | yq -y ..

Memes are all cool and all. But this is your daily remaining that 10000! =
Confusingly there is another project called yq that does exactly what you're suggesting and it's a preprocessor that converts yaml to json and then used jq. https://github.com/kislyuk/yq

Yq is a portable yq: command-line YAML, JSON, XML, CSV and properties processor
I personally find the yq tool from https://github.com/kislyuk/yq much more useful: it has all the same options and formats as `jq` (as it's really a wrapper around jq). Rather than the `yq` in the OP here where only partial functionality exists.

Scraping weather info
XML data from the API can be parsed and filtered with xq. There may be multiple ways to get it; first try the yq toolset which includes it.

Show HN: Xq – command-line XML and HTML beautifier and content extractor
There is also yq [1], which attempts the same for yaml, toml and xml. (And confusingly also contains a binary named "xq" for querying xml, however with a different syntax)
