Gemini CLI packing list packing_slip

How to: Gemini CLI packing list packing_slip

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

Add packing list to Gemini CLI

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "packing-list": {
      "httpUrl": "https://mcp.zovo.one/mcp/packing-slip"
    }
  }
}

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

packing list will not start until these are set, so packing_slip never becomes available.

MCP_LICENSE_KEY

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.
