Nothing serious here today

Today is the operative word: we check Google Chat MCP every 15 minutes and re-read its code on every release. Watch it and you find out the day that stops being true.

Google Chat MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Google Chat MCP?
Google Chat MCP runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package @renzo.johnson/google-chat-mcp.
How do I connect Google Chat MCP?
Copy the ready config from this page. We generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each in the form that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls @renzo.johnson/google-chat-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
