Gemini CLI with MCP Server: Expanding Possibilities with Google Apps Script

Gists Abstract The Gemini CLI provides a powerful command-line interface for interacting with Google’s Gemini models. By leveraging the Model Context Protocol (MCP), the CLI can be extended with custom tools. This report explores the integration of the Gemini CLI with an MCP server built using Google Apps Script Web Apps. We demonstrate how this combination simplifies authorization for Google Workspace APIs (Gmail, Drive, Calendar, etc.), allowing Gemini to execute complex, multi-step tasks directly within the Google ecosystem.

Gemini CLI with MCP Server Built by Web Apps of Google Apps Script

Gists Abstract The Gemini CLI can be integrated with Google Workspace via Google Apps Script to securely access personal data, enabling powerful automations like email summaries and calendar management. Introduction The recently released Gemini CLI is a powerful command-line interface for interacting with Google’s Gemini models and cloud resources. Ref While powerful on its own, its utility can be significantly enhanced by connecting it to a user’s personal Google resources, such as Google Sheets, Docs, Slides, Gmail, and Calendar.

A Practical Analysis of the Gemini API's URL Context Tool

Gists Introduction The Gemini API recently introduced the URL context tool, a feature designed to allow the model to directly fetch and utilize content from specified URLs to ground its responses. Ref This report provides a practical demonstration of this tool’s capabilities. We will investigate its impact on two critical aspects of AI model interaction: the accuracy of the generated response and the total token consumption, which directly affects API costs.

Managing Smart Chips on Google Sheets with Sheets API

Gists Overview Google Sheets now supports managing smart chips via its API, enabling retrieval and placement with Apps Script and other languages. Description Smart chips in Google Sheets and Docs are a powerful feature designed to enhance collaboration and information sharing. While there historically haven’t been built-in Google Apps Script methods to manage these chips, a workaround was previously developed to address this limitation (Ref). However, Google has recently introduced direct methods for managing smart chips within the Google Sheets API (Ref).
