Gemini CLI

Gemini CLI reads MCP servers from its settings file. Add MCP Ads and your connected ad accounts become available from the terminal.

Add the server

Add a named entry pointing at the remote server URL, then restart the CLI.

~/.gemini/settings.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-ads": {
      "url": "https://mcp-ads.com/mcp-slim"
    }
  }
}

Note

Gemini CLI is developing quickly and its MCP configuration has changed between releases. If this key is not recognised, check the settings format for your installed version.

Common questions

Does connecting Gemini CLI give Google access to my ad data?

Tool results are returned into the conversation you are having with that model, the same as any other client. If that matters for your data policy, choose the client accordingly — the server behaves identically either way.

Can I use it with a Google Workspace account?

Yes. The Gemini CLI sign-in is separate from the Google identity you use to authorise Google Ads, GA4 and Search Console inside MCP Ads.
