Gemini CLI Gloam gloam_create_payment_request

How to: Gemini CLI Gloam gloam_create_payment_request

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

Add Gloam to Gemini CLI

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gloam": {
      "httpUrl": "https://www.gloam.trade/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Gemini CLI.

  2. 03

    Ask for something gloam_create_payment_request does. Gemini CLI lists the server's tools on connect and calls gloam_create_payment_request itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Gloam'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

Gloam will not start until these are set, so gloam_create_payment_request never becomes available.

  • GLOAM_AGENT_PRIVATE_KEY
  • GLOAM_TEMPO_ACCOUNT
  • GLOAM_NOTE_KEY

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 6 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.
