Gemini CLI red web utils caselaw_fetch

How to: Gemini CLI red web utils caselaw_fetch

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

Add red web utils to Gemini CLI

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "red-web-utils": {
      "httpUrl": "https://red-web-utils.agent-tools-x402.workers.dev/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Gemini CLI.

  2. 03

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

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that red web utils'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 14 November 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.
