Attio + Gemini
Drive Attio (modern relationship-graph CRM) from any AI agent: records (people, companies, deals, custom objects), lists, tasks, notes. 12 tools, Bearer auth.
Prerequisites
See the full setup instructions baked into the connector (visible in the in-app store when you select the connector). The required environment variables for this connector are:
ATTIO_ACCESS_TOKEN
Step 1 — Get credentials
attio.com).
Setup:
- Sign in to Attio → top-right avatar → API & access → Create an access token (or set up an OAuth app).
- Pick scopes: at minimum
object_configuration:read,record_permission:read,record_permission:read-write,list_configuration:read,note:read-write. - Copy the token. Set
ATTIO_ACCESS_TOKEN.
Authentication: Authorization: Bearer ${ATTIO_ACCESS_TOKEN}.
Object model: Attio is highly schema-flexible. Default objects are people, companies, deals, users, workspaces. You can add custom objects (object_slug). Each object has attributes (fields) — different per workspace.

Step 2 — Install the adapter
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HelpCode-ai/anythingmcp/main/docker-compose.quickstart.yml -o docker-compose.yml
printf 'JWT_SECRET=%s\nENCRYPTION_KEY=%s\n' "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" "$(openssl rand -hex 32)" > .env
docker compose up -d
Step 3 — Add the connector in Gemini
Your server URL: in AnythingMCP, open MCP Servers → the server this connector is on, and copy its URL (
https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/…). Use it wherever this guide showsYOUR_SERVER_ID.
Gemini CLI reads MCP servers from ~/.gemini/settings.json (or %APPDATA%\gemini\settings.json on Windows). Add:
{
"mcpServers": {
"anythingmcp": {
"httpUrl": "https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_ID",
"headers": { "X-API-Key": "YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
}
}
}
- Get your MCP API key from AnythingMCP → MCP Servers → your server → API keys.
- Save the file and restart
gemini. - Run
/mcpinside the Gemini CLI —Attioshould be listed as available. - Vertex AI Studio: pass
https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp/YOUR_SERVER_IDto thetoolsarray of your request with the sameX-API-Keyheader.
