Google Workspace Developer Tools MCP Server

Source: Dev.to

Overview

Following the release of the VS Code extension, a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Google Workspace developers has been published.
The MCP server gives AI agents context‑aware access to Google Workspace developer documentation, allowing them to retrieve up‑to‑date information about APIs, services, and code snippets. This ensures that AI‑generated answers are based on the latest guides and best practices rather than outdated training data.

Features

• Retrieve current information about Google Workspace APIs.
• Fetch code snippets and examples.
• Understand concepts and limitations of specific services.

Installation

If you are using the Gemini CLI, the MCP server is automatically included when you install the developer tools extension:

gemini extensions install https://github.com/googleworkspace/developer-tools

Configuration for Other MCP Clients

For Gemini, add the server definition to your settings.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "workspace-developer": {
      "httpUrl": "https://workspace-developer.goog/mcp"
    }
  }
}
