Gemini CLI Cronitor MCP by usefulapi cronitor_list_monitors
How to: Gemini CLI Cronitor MCP by usefulapi cronitor_list_monitors
Add Cronitor MCP by usefulapi to Gemini CLI
-
01
Open ~/.gemini/settings.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.
{
"mcpServers": {
"cronitor": {
"httpUrl": "https://cronitor.usefulapi.io/mcp"
}
}
}-
02
Save the file and restart Gemini CLI.
-
03
Ask for something cronitor_list_monitors does. Gemini CLI lists the server's tools on connect and calls cronitor_list_monitors itself — you do not invoke it by name.
-
04
If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Cronitor MCP by usefulapi'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.
