1. Add the server

Run in your terminal

gemini mcp add --transport http airtable https://mcp.airtable.com/mcp

2. Sign in

Run /mcp auth <name> inside Gemini CLI to sign in to an OAuth server. Airtable is hosted by Airtable, so there is nothing to install or keep updated.

3. Try it

Ask Gemini CLI for something Airtable can do. Read and write Airtable bases, tables and records. Approve the first tool call and check the result before allowing write actions automatically.

· In settings.json, streamable HTTP servers use httpUrl, SSE servers use url, local servers use command.
· includeTools and excludeTools limit which tools the model sees.
