Gemini CLI Put It Online Prompt/share_file

How to: Gemini CLI Put It Online share_file

client:Gemini CLI transport:streamable-http prompt:share_file

Add Put It Online to Gemini CLI

  1. 01

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "put-it-online": {
      "httpUrl": "https://putit.online/mcp"
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Gemini CLI.

  2. 03

    share_file is surfaced in the client's prompt or command menu. Unlike a tool, you invoke it deliberately — Gemini CLI will not call it for you.

  3. 04

    If it does not appear, check that Put It Online is connected and that you are looking at its prompts rather than its tools.

Gemini expands $VAR and ${VAR} inside env values, so a secret can live in your shell rather than this file. Gemini CLI docs

Same prompt, other clients

Read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling prompts/list on 11 October 2026. A listing does not declare its prompts, so asking is the only way to know them, and this is what the server actually offers rather than what its listing claims. Names only are stored; connect the server for each prompt's arguments.
