SocialGTM in Gemini CLI

Add SocialGTM to Gemini CLI and check your reply queue from the terminal.

Connect it

  1. Add the server:
    gemini mcp add --transport http socialgtm https://socialgtm.app/api/mcp
  2. Start Gemini CLI and sign in. Log in to SocialGTM in the browser window and choose Allow.
    /mcp auth socialgtm
  3. Ask for your queue.

No API key. You sign in with your SocialGTM account, and the connection works in the workspace you had open when you allowed it.

What you need

Gemini CLI on a machine that can open a browser for the one-time sign-in. It doesn't work over SSH without one.

What to ask

  • “Sum up my SocialGTM mentions: how many questions, complaints and praise, and the three I should answer first.”
  • “Show me possible matches from people leaving a competitor and write replies for the two strongest.”

Where it's saved

gemini mcp add saves to the project by default, in .gemini/settings.json. Add -s user to save it in ~/.gemini/settings.json for every project. The entry uses httpUrl, Gemini CLI's key for Streamable HTTP servers.

Confirmations

Each tool call asks you to proceed once, always allow the tool, always allow the server, or cancel. Don't add SocialGTM with --trust: it skips every confirmation, approve_draft included. To keep Gemini read-only, set "excludeTools": ["approve_draft", "reject_draft"] on the server.

Checking and removing it

gemini mcp list shows each server's connection status, and /mcp shows the tools inside a session. gemini mcp remove socialgtm removes it. Gemini CLI keeps MCP sign-ins in ~/.gemini/mcp-oauth-tokens.json.

What it can do

It reads your queue, drafts, matches and mentions, and can write, approve or reject replies, under the same reply limits and safety holds as the SocialGTM app. On X, Reddit and LinkedIn you still post each reply yourself. See everything it can do.

If it doesn’t connect

  • If a tool call fails with an auth error, run /mcp auth socialgtm again.

Setup steps follow Gemini CLI docs: MCP servers.
