Connect Uptimely to Gemini CLI

Configure

Register the MCP server

gemini mcp add --transport http uptimely https://app.getuptimely.com/api/mcp
Sign in

Authorize the connection

Gemini CLI writes the entry to ~/.gemini/settings.json (add -s project for one project) and runs the OAuth sign-in in the browser when the server first connects.

Verify

Confirm it worked

Ask Gemini CLI to call search_tools, then execute_typescript with return await external_uptimely_project_list({});. A client that lists uptimely_project_list as its own tool can call it directly. A JSON list of your projects — even an empty list — means the connection is live.

If you also configured the SDK or REST API, this should answer HTTP 200 with a JSON body whose data is a list of monitors:

curl -sS -H "Authorization: Bearer $UPTIMELY_API_KEY" https://app.getuptimely.com/v1/monitors
