Gemini CLI Integration with NanoBanana MCP

📘 Complete Guide: Using all 11 AceData Cloud MCPs in Gemini CLI →

Based on Gemini's multimodal image model, it excels at understanding complex instructions, fine editing, and coherent character portrayal. After integrating MCP with Gemini CLI, you can directly invoke it in conversations without switching windows or copying and pasting.

Obtain API Token

Register an account at AceData Cloud platform and copy the API Token from the homepage—one Token is sufficient to use all 11 MCP Servers. For detailed steps, see the Complete Guide.

Edit configuration: one-click addition via command line (recommended)

gemini mcp add nanobanana \
  --transport http \
  https://nanobanana.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp \

Or manually edit ~/.gemini/settings.json:

{

      "httpUrl": "https://nanobanana.mcp.acedata.cloud/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer yourToken" }
