Gemini CLI
Connect Sumble MCP to the Gemini CLI as a custom MCP server.
Sumble MCP uses the streamable HTTP transport, so it goes in the httpUrl field of the Gemini CLI's mcpServers configuration.
Option 1: gemini mcp add (recommended)
Run the following command in your terminal:
gemini mcp add --transport http --scope user sumble https://mcp.sumble.comStart the CLI by running
geminiRun
/mcp auth sumbleand complete the auth flow in your browserRun
/mcp listto confirm Sumble is connected, then use Sumble MCP in your Gemini CLI chat
Option 2: edit settings.json manually
Open your Gemini CLI settings file:
User-wide:
~/.gemini/settings.jsonProject-only:
.gemini/settings.jsonin your project directory
Add the
sumbleentry to themcpServersobject:
{
"mcpServers": {
"sumble": {
"httpUrl": "https://mcp.sumble.com"
}
}
}Start the CLI by running
geminiRun
/mcp auth sumbleand complete the auth flow in your browserRun
/mcp listto confirm Sumble is connected, then use Sumble MCP in your Gemini CLI chat
The Gemini CLI discovers Sumble's OAuth configuration automatically and stores the resulting tokens in ~/.gemini/mcp-oauth-tokens.json, refreshing them as needed. If your tools stop working, re-run /mcp auth sumble.
For more detail on MCP configuration options — tool filtering, timeouts, and per-project scopes — see Google's MCP servers with Gemini CLI documentation.
Once connected, see Try it for example prompts, Available tools for what each tool does, and Credits for how usage is billed.
