Gemini CLI chesswithclaw wait_for_event

How to: Gemini CLI chesswithclaw wait_for_event

client:Gemini CLI transport:streamable-http tool:wait_for_event

Add chesswithclaw to Gemini CLI

01
Open ~/.gemini/settings.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "chesswithclaw": {
      "httpUrl": "https://chesswithclaw.vercel.app/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

02
Save the file and restart Gemini CLI.
03
Ask for something wait_for_event does. Gemini CLI lists the server's tools on connect and calls wait_for_event itself — you do not invoke it by name.
04
If nothing happens, check the server is running and that chesswithclaw'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 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.
