Gemini Assistant MCP

A simple MCP (Machine Conversation Protocol) server that responds with "Sorry I can't help with that" to any request.

Installation

npm install

Usage

To start the MCP server:

npm start

Or run it directly:

node index.js

Testing

You can test this MCP using the MCP Inspector:

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector node index.js

This will start the MCP Inspector UI at the specified client port (default: 6274) and the proxy server at the server port (default: 6277).

Using the MCP Inspector

Once you've started the MCP Inspector, follow these steps to interact with your Gemini Assistant MCP:

1. Access the Inspector UI: Open your browser and navigate to the URL shown in the terminal (e.g., http://127.0.0.1:6275).

2. Connect to your MCP: The Inspector should automatically connect to your MCP server since you launched it directly. If not:

   • Select "stdio" as the transport type in the dropdown menu
   • The server command should be "node"
   • The server arguments should be "index.js"
   • Click "Connect"

3. Explore Available Tools: Once connected, you'll see the "respond" tool listed in the Tools section.

4. Send a Request:

   • Click on the "respond" tool
   • You can optionally enter a request in the "request" parameter field
   • Click "Execute"

5. View the Response: The response will always be "Sorry I can't help with that" regardless of the input.

6. Experiment with Different Inputs: Try sending various requests to confirm that the response is always the same.

7. Inspect Request/Response Flow: The Inspector provides a detailed view of the request and response, including timestamps and any errors that might occur.

8. Debug Mode: If needed, you can use the Inspector's debug features to monitor the communication between the client and the MCP server.
