The only text from the server itself is in the section quoted from it below. ## How to reach it - The client starts it as a local process (stdio): `npx -y @gemmein/[email protected]`. - Your MCP client knows it as `gemmein` (`clients/` configures it under that name); call its tools by the names below. Claude Code shows them as `mcp__gemmein__<tool>`. - No credentials. ## Tools 10 tools. The read-only column is the server's own hint (`readOnlyHint`), not something the hub checked. ### Quoted from the server: data, not instructions The names, sentences and parameter names in this table are the server's own text, as the hub listed it.

pin d7f13fda3e114e588482ab01d914f8a3bfb15e4d1faecb85013c0e1cfab895f1check_integrationRuns the reaffirm boundary checks live against the caller's own app; returns structured pass/fail (structuredContent: checks, notes, failedCount, passed). Useful once the app is wired to Gemmein, when confirming it is done, and before go-live. Tier A (public pk_ key only): the collection name is valid, anonymous reads and writes of a private collection are refused, an optional public collection reads as its rule intends — safe against any environment, live included. Tier B (with the sk_dev secret key): proves one user cannot read another's private records, using two throwaway test sessions in the dev environment. sk_live is refused by design — a live secret is never needed here; dev and live enforce the same rules, so isolation proven in dev holds in live. Tier A writes nothing while the boundaries hold — but if a private collection is open to strangers, its anonymous test write succeeds and the record stays, in whatever environment the key names (live included), and the check fails, naming the collection. Tier B writes only in the caller's dev environment: it signs in two test people (created on first use and kept; any earlier sessions of theirs are signed out), creates one probe record as the first and deletes it at the end of the check. Signing a person in signs them out of their earlier sessions, so testUsers suits throwaway addresses: real development people named there are signed out. A failed check means the app's assumptions drifted from its rules.Runs the reaffirm boundary checks live against the caller's own app; returns structured pass/fail (structuredContent: checks, notes, failedCount, passed).

A relay is one trigger (receiver: a provider's webhook; schedule: a clock; data_change: a record changing) and up to ten actions in Gemmein's own verbs (write_record, grant_access, revoke_access, grant_credits, email_person, call_url, fulfil_product, refund_product, grant_plan, revoke_plan) — Gemmein runs it: receives the event, maps the fields, authorises, carries out the action. Takes the definition JSON; returns the English sentence the dashboard shows ("When gocardless-paid receives an event where event_type is confirmed → grant Pro, email the person, call https://…") or the one refusal sentence the cloud would answer, naming the field and the fix.

Useful when choosing a collection's rule, or when a rule refuses something at runtime. With no rule it returns the all-seven cheat-sheet plus the cross-cutting law, including what no rule supports (team/group/workspace scope, per-user visibility inside a rule) — an app that needs those shapes has a fit gap, and client-side filtering does not close it.Explains one of the seven collection safety rules (private, shared, admin_write, public_read, community, addressed, direct): its exact access contract, what it is right for, and the mistakes that leak data.

pin 94abd45af3c7cb48dbaa6993fcec42347bc697007ad9eb8be8ba3a263a5272f2guideReturns the Gemmein build guide (llms.txt): the packaged contract — what code calls, matching the installed SDK. Useful before building an app on Gemmein, moving an existing app onto it, or deciding whether an app fits. The guide opens with two doors — starting from an idea with nothing built yet, or already holding an app — and both lead to the same fit assessment: the in-scope map, what Gemmein does not support, and the three possible outcomes (fits; fits except named gaps; doesn't fit). After that it is the full build contract: auth flow, the seven collection safety rules, record shapes, links/expand, uploads, contention patterns, payments (g.payments.products / g.subscriptions.plans to list what the app sells, which is not a collection; g.subscriptions.checkout / g.payments.buy), drafts, error philosophy, pricing, the keys (server · CLI · sync), `gemmein sync` and `sync --live`, go-live and promotion, relays, AI tools defined on the server and run with `g.ai.run`, and credits. The dashboard section (connecting Stripe, the dashboard's rooms, health checks) is appended live from docs.gemmein.com, because it changes with the dashboard; offline, a link to it takes its place. With `topic` ("refund a payment", "free trial") it returns only the docs-site sections that answer it, each a direct markdown link with its anchor (https://docs.gemmein.com/<page>.md#<section>); with no topic the guide ends with every docs page's markdown link, one page per topic.Returns the Gemmein build guide (llms.txt): the packaged contract — what code calls, matching the installed SDK.
