Busabase

Agent Skill

Give your agent this one instruction

You end up with more than a connector: the busabase skill carries the whole approval-first workflow, the CLI, and the full API — available in every future session without re-pasting anything.

Asks first

Busabase Cloud or Personal Desktop — your call, before anything happens.

Connects

Signs you in and stores the credential itself. No API key to copy by hand.

Seeds a Base

Creates and fills your first Base, so the workspace is not an empty screen.

Installs the skills

busabase and busabase-app-creator become permanent, for every session after this.

Prefer a connector?

If you would rather wire Busabase in as MCP tools than let the agent install a skill, use the server URL below.

At a glance

Vendor: Google
How it connects: MCP + OAuth · Plugin / Skill
Transport: Streamable HTTP
Authentication: OAuth (dynamic registration)
Config file: ~/.gemini/settings.json

Add Busabase to ~/.gemini/settings.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "busabase": {
      "httpUrl": "https://busabase.com/api/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Start Gemini CLI and run:

/mcp auth busabase
/mcp

Complete OAuth in the browser. /mcp should then show Busabase as connected. Gemini stores and refreshes the OAuth tokens for this server; repeat /mcp auth busabase if the grant is revoked or the account must change.
