Register Google Maps Platform Code Assist via API
Add this MCP client with a POST to /api/mcp/client. See Connecting to MCP Servers for full options.
# For a remote HTTP or SSE server:
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/mcp/client \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"name": "google-maps-platform-code-assist",
"connection_type": "<http|sse>",
"connection_string": "<upstream MCP endpoint>",
"tools_to_execute": ["*"]
}'
# For a local STDIO server:
curl -X POST http://localhost:8080/api/mcp/client \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
