Connect Gemini

DocJacket works with the Gemini CLI today via personal access token. Paste-URL OAuth (the easier flow you'll see on the Claude and ChatGPT pages) will land here as soon as the Gemini CLI's MCP client adds Dynamic Client Registration support.

Quick start (Gemini CLI, bearer token)​

  1. Mint a token:

  2. Configure Gemini CLI:

    Open your Gemini CLI configuration (~/.gemini/mcp.json on Mac / Linux) and add a DocJacket entry:

    {
      "servers": {
        "docjacket": {
          "url": "https://mcp.docjacket.com/mcp",
          "transport": "http",
          "headers": {
            "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_TOKEN_HERE"
          }
        }
      }
    }

    Replace YOUR_TOKEN_HERE with the plaintext token from step 1.

  3. Restart the Gemini CLI. Run gemini tools list — you should see DocJacket's tools in the inventory.

Try it​

Ask Gemini:

"Use DocJacket to show me what needs my attention today."

Gemini will call get_next_required_actions and return a ranked overdue-first list of transactions with rationales.

Other good prompts:

  • "Use DocJacket to search for deals at 123 Main."
  • "Use DocJacket to list deadlines this week."
  • "Use DocJacket to show open tasks on the [property] deal."
  • "Use DocJacket to look up the listing agent on [property]."

Current tool surface​

Current AI Access is read-first. Gemini can use these DocJacket tools today:

  • search_transactions
  • get_transaction
  • get_key_dates
  • get_upcoming_key_dates
  • get_open_tasks
  • get_contacts
  • list_open_contingencies
  • get_next_required_actions

Drafting and write tools are rolling out behind per-tool consent. To see the live inventory for your token:

"Use DocJacket's mcp_catalog to list the tools by category."

When paste-URL OAuth lands​

Once the Gemini CLI supports RFC 7591 Dynamic Client Registration, this page will be updated to lead with the paste-URL flow:

  1. Add https://mcp.docjacket.com/mcp as an MCP server in Gemini.
  2. Sign in to DocJacket and click Allow on the consent screen.
  3. Done.

No tokens to copy, no mcp.json to edit, per-user revocation. Until then, the token path above is the supported flow.

Permissions, audit, revocation​

  • Settings → AI Access lists your Gemini token alongside other connected clients.
  • Activity log shows every tool call: who, what, when, what arguments, what result.
  • Revoke the Gemini token with one click. The next CLI tool call returns HTTP 401.

Troubleshooting​

"Authorization failed" — The token is invalid, expired, or revoked. Mint a fresh one at settings/ai-access and update ~/.gemini/mcp.json.

Tools don't appear after restart — Check the JSON syntax in mcp.json. A missing comma or extra brace will make the Gemini CLI skip the server entry. Validate with cat ~/.gemini/mcp.json | jq.

Pro plan required — Connecting is free, but actually loading tools requires a DocJacket Pro plan on the connecting user's account. Upgrade at docjacket.com/pricing.
