FAQ from GemForge (Gemini Tools)

What dependencies does GemForge (Gemini Tools) require?

A valid Gemini API key (GEMINI_API_KEY) is required. Optionally, set GEMINI_PAID_TIER=true for better rate limits.

Which transport does it use?

The server runs as a child process via Node.js (stdio transport). It must be configured in the MCP client’s configuration file (e.g., claude_desktop_config.json).

How does model selection work?

GemForge automatically routes each tool to the optimal Gemini model (e.g., gemini-2.5-flash for search, gemini-2.5-pro for reasoning and code). Users can override with a model_id parameter or the DEFAULT_MODEL_ID environment variable.

Are there any file‑type limitations?

It supports 60+ file types including PDFs, images, code files, and structured XML. File processing is handled by the gemini_fileops tool.

Is it production‑ready?

Yes. The server includes enterprise‑grade error logging, automatic model fallbacks during rate limits or disruptions, retry logic, and API resilience mechanisms.
