NeverBounce + Gemini

Validate single emails or run bulk-list verification jobs via NeverBounce. 6 tools, query-string API-key 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:

NEVERBOUNCE_API_KEY

Step 1 — Get credentials

2 (developers.neverbounce.com).

Setup:

  1. Sign in to https://app.neverbounce.comApps → New API Key.
  2. Copy the key. Set NEVERBOUNCE_API_KEY.

Authentication: query-string ?key=.... NeverBounce also supports a custom Auth header but query-string is the primary.

Single vs Bulk:

  • neverbounce_single_check: synchronous single-email verification. ~1 credit. Returns result (valid/invalid/disposable/catchall/unknown) + flags + suggested_correction.
  • neverbounce_create_job: async bulk verification of a list (up to 1M emails). Returns job_id; poll status with neverbounce_job_status until status='complete'; then neverbounce_job_results to fetch.

…(continued in the in-app connector instructions)

Step 2 — Install the adapter

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

Step 3 — Add the connector in Gemini

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",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}
  1. Get your MCP API key from AnythingMCP → Profile → MCP API Keys → New Key.
  2. Save the file and restart gemini.
  3. Run /mcp inside the Gemini CLI — NeverBounce should be listed as available.
  4. Vertex AI Studio: pass https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp to the tools array of your request with the same Bearer header.

FAQ

Does Gemini 1.5 Pro or 2.x support MCP? Yes — Gemini CLI ≥ 0.4 and Vertex AI tools API both accept MCP httpUrl connectors with Bearer headers.
