Overview
What Gemini CLI MCP Connection does
Install the 1AIVault memory server into Gemini CLI from the Connection screen and use Gemini as a Classify Now agent. Detection separates the CLI installation from the vault connection so the right fix is obvious.
Manually editing Gemini’s JSON settings and locating a packaged MCP server turns a memory connection into a fragile setup task. The installer validates both paths, merges only the vault entry, and lets the app repair stale configurations after updates.

FAQ
Common questions
Where is the Gemini MCP configuration stored?
The installer updates ~/.gemini/settings.json and leaves unrelated Gemini preferences untouched.
What if Gemini is installed but MCP is missing?
The Classify Now wizard shows those as separate states and offers Install for the vault connection.
Can the connection be removed?
Yes. Uninstall removes the 1AIVault MCP entry from Gemini settings without replacing the rest of the file.
