Gemini CLI Claidex MCP query_failure_graph
How to: Gemini CLI Claidex MCP query_failure_graph
Add Claidex MCP to Gemini CLI
-
01
Open ~/.gemini/settings.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.
{
"mcpServers": {
"failure-intelligence": {
"httpUrl": "https://app.claidex.com/api/mcp"
}
}
}
-
02
Save the file and restart Gemini CLI.
-
03
Ask for something query_failure_graph does. Gemini CLI lists the server's tools on connect and calls query_failure_graph itself — you do not invoke it by name.
-
04
If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Claidex MCP'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
Set these first
Claidex MCP will not start until these are set, so query_failure_graph never becomes available.

Same tool, other clients
This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 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.
