Substack + Gemini

Read Substack publication content, posts, comments, podcast episodes via public RSS/JSON feeds. 5 tools, no auth required.

Voraussetzungen

Die vollständige Setup-Anleitung ist in den Connector eingebaut (im Store sichtbar, wenn du den Connector auswählst). Benötigte Umgebungsvariablen für diesen Connector:

SUBSTACK_PUBLICATION_URL

Schritt 1 — Zugangsdaten holen

Setup: NO API KEY. Set SUBSTACK_PUBLICATION_URL = the publication's base URL (e.g. https://lennysnewsletter.substack.com). For tools that target a specific publication, the URL is taken from this env var.

Authentication: NONE. All reads use public endpoints (the same JSON Substack's own site fetches).

Content endpoints available:

  • /api/v1/posts?limit=N&offset=M — paginated posts list (each post: id, title, slug, post_date, audience, type)
  • /api/v1/posts/by-id/{id} — single post detail
  • /api/v1/comments/{post_id} — top comments on a post
  • /api/v1/podcast/feed — podcast episodes (audio newsletters only)
  • /feed — standard RSS feed

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)

Schritt 2 — Adapter installieren

git clone https://github.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp.git
cd anythingmcp && docker compose up -d

Schritt 3 — Connector in Gemini hinzufügen

Gemini CLI liest MCP-Server aus ~/.gemini/settings.json (oder %APPDATA%\gemini\settings.json unter Windows). Hinzufügen:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "anythingmcp": {
      "httpUrl": "https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}
  1. Hole deinen MCP API Key aus AnythingMCP → Profil → MCP API Keys → Neuer Key.
  2. Speichern und gemini neu starten.
  3. /mcp in Gemini CLI ausführen — Substack sollte als verfügbar gelistet sein.
  4. Vertex AI Studio: https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp im tools-Array der Anfrage mit demselben Bearer-Header übergeben.

Verfügbare Tools
