Google Jules MCP server

Jules MCP Server (jules-mcp)

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that exposes Google Jules Agent operations via FastMCP.

This server lets MCP-compatible clients (and Python code) list Jules sources, create and manage sessions, and inspect activities using the official jules-agent-sdk.

• Server framework: FastMCP
• SDK: jules-agent-sdk
• Python: 3.13+
• License: Apache-2.0

Features

Tools exposed via the MCP server (grouped by area):

• Sources
  • get_source(source_id)
  • list_sources(filter_str=None, page_size=None, page_token=None)
  • get_all_sources(filter_str=None)
• Sessions
  • create_session(prompt, source, starting_branch=None, title=None, require_plan_approval=False)
  • get_session(session_id)
  • list_sessions(page_size=None, page_token=None)
  • approve_session_plan(session_id)
  • send_session_message(session_id, prompt)
  • wait_for_session_completion(session_id, poll_interval=5, timeout=600)
• Activities
  • get_activity(session_id, activity_id)
  • list_activities(session_id, page_size=None, page_token=None)
  • list_all_activities(session_id)

See jules_mcp/jules_mcp.py for signatures and inline docstrings.

Installation

Option A — from a local checkout:

# from the repository root
pip install -e .

Option B — using uv (recommended during development):

# from the repository root
uv sync

The project targets Python 3.13+.

Configuration

Set your Jules API key via environment variable:

• Windows PowerShell

  $Env:JULES_API_KEY = "<your_api_key_here>"
  

• Unix shells (bash/zsh)

  export JULES_API_KEY="<your_api_key_here>"
  

If you do not provide an argument to jules(), the SDK reads JULES_API_KEY automatically.

Running the MCP server

There are two common ways to run the server.

1. Programmatic run (in-process) using FastMCP Client — useful for testing or embedding:

import asyncio
from fastmcp import Client
from jules_mcp import mcp

async def main():
    async with Client(mcp) as client:
        # Example: list all sources (auto-paginated)
        result = await client.call_tool("get_all_sources")
        print(result)

asyncio.run(main())

2. As a standalone MCP server executable for external MCP clients:

• Using uv and FastMCP directly

  uv run fastmcp run jules_mcp/jules_mcp.py:mcp
  

  This starts the MCP server over stdio.

• Using the provided configuration files

  • MCP.json: a sample command configuration for MCP-aware hosts.
  • fastmcp.json: FastMCP runtime/environment configuration.

Adjust paths in MCP.json if you use a different checkout location.

You can also run via the module entry point:

python -m jules_mcp

This calls start_mcp() which invokes FastMCP.run() using the "mcp" instance defined in the package.

Usage notes and examples

• Listing and filtering sources

import asyncio
from fastmcp import Client
from jules_mcp import mcp

async def main():
    async with Client(mcp) as client:
        # Filter syntax follows AIP-160 filtering rules supported by Jules
        res = await client.call_tool(
            "list_sources",
            {"filter_str": "name=sources/source1 OR name=sources/source2", "page_size": 10}
        )
        print(res)

asyncio.run(main())

• Creating a session and waiting for completion

import asyncio
from fastmcp import Client
from jules_mcp import mcp

async def run_session():
    async with Client(mcp) as client:
        session = await client.call_tool(
            "create_session",
            {
                "prompt": "Analyze the repository and propose improvements",
                "source": "sources/abc123",
                "require_plan_approval": True,
            },
        )

        # Optionally approve plan
        await client.call_tool("approve_session_plan", {"session_id": session["name"]})

        # Wait for completion
        final = await client.call_tool(
            "wait_for_session_completion",
            {"session_id": session["name"], "poll_interval": 5, "timeout": 600}
        )
        print(final)

asyncio.run(run_session())

• Inspecting activities

import asyncio
from fastmcp import Client
from jules_mcp import mcp

async def list_acts(session_id: str):
    async with Client(mcp) as client:
        acts = await client.call_tool("list_all_activities", {"session_id": session_id})
        for a in acts:
            print(a)

asyncio.run(list_acts("sessions/abc123"))

Development

• Create a virtual environment and install dev dependencies

  uv sync
  # or: pip install -e .[dev]
  

• Run tests (note: some tools may reach the Jules API and require JULES_API_KEY)

  uv run pytest -q
  

• Linting/formatting: follow your preferred tools; this repo does not include linters by default.
