1. Add the server
Run in your terminal
gemini mcp add --transport http mapbox https://mcp.mapbox.com/mcp
2. Sign in
Run /mcp auth <name> inside Gemini CLI to sign in to an OAuth server. Mapbox is hosted by Mapbox, so there is nothing to install or keep updated.
3. Try it
Ask Gemini CLI for something Mapbox can do. Geocoding, POI search, directions, isochrones and static maps. 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.
