Gemini CLI Agent Wake check_wakes
How to: Gemini CLI Agent Wake check_wakes
Add Agent Wake to Gemini CLI
-
01
Open ~/.gemini/settings.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.
{
"mcpServers": {
"wake": {
"httpUrl": "https://wake.cloudforbots.com/mcp"
}
}
}
-
02
Save the file and restart Gemini CLI.
-
03
Ask for something check_wakes does. Gemini CLI lists the server's tools on connect and calls check_wakes itself — you do not invoke it by name.
-
04
If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Agent Wake's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.
Gemini expands $VAR and ${VAR} inside env values, so a secret can live in your shell rather than this file. Gemini CLI docs
Same tool, other clients
This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 15 October 2026. It is what
the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.
Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
