前提条件

完整的设置说明已内置在连接器中 (在 store 中选择连接器时可见)。所需环境变量:

FRONT_API_TOKEN

步骤 1 — 获取凭证

frontapp.com/reference).

Setup:

  1. Sign in to Front → Settings (top-right) → Developers → API Tokens → Create API Token.
  2. Pick scope: private (full-access to all inboxes/conversations) or scoped to a specific inbox/role.
  3. Copy the token. Set FRONT_API_TOKEN.

Authentication: Authorization: Bearer ${FRONT_API_TOKEN}.

Front's tile model:

  • Conversation = a thread between your team and one or more contacts. Has status (open/archived/spam/deleted), assignee, inbox, tags.
  • Message = each inbound/outbound email, SMS, chat, etc. within a conversation.
  • Contact = an external entity (a customer).

步骤 2 — 安装 adapter

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

步骤 3 — 在 Gemini 中添加连接器

Gemini CLI 从 ~/.gemini/settings.json (Windows: %APPDATA%\gemini\settings.json) 读取 MCP 服务器。添加:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "anythingmcp": {
      "httpUrl": "https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_MCP_API_KEY" }
    }
  }
}
  1. 从 AnythingMCP 获取你的 MCP API key
  2. 保存文件并重启 gemini
  3. 在 Gemini CLI 中运行 /mcpFront 应显示为可用。
  4. Vertex AI Studio: 将 https://cloud.anythingmcp.com/mcp 传入请求的 tools 数组,使用相同的 Bearer 头。
