Google Chat MCP Server

MCP server for Google Chat using the internal Dynamite API — no Google Cloud Console required.

⚠️ Disclaimer: Uses an undocumented internal API reverse-engineered by EionRobb. It may break at any time if Google updates their protocol.

Setup

1. Export cookies from your browser

  1. Install the Cookie-Editor extension (Chrome / Firefox)

  2. Open chat.google.com and make sure you're logged in

  3. Click the Cookie-Editor icon → Export → Export as JSON

  4. Save the file (anywhere you like)

Cookies expire when you log out or after a long period of inactivity. Re-export them if you get a 401 error.

Recommended install (uvx, no clone needed)

You don't need to clone the repo or install dependencies manually. uv runs the server straight from GitHub and resolves dependencies automatically.

Claude Desktop

Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "googlechat": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "--from", "git+https://github.com/RHMDHDYT/googlechat-mcp",
        "googlechat-mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "GCHAT_COOKIES": "/absolute/path/to/cookies.json"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop after editing the config.

Claude Code

claude mcp add googlechat \
  --env GCHAT_COOKIES=/absolute/path/to/cookies.json \
  -- uvx --from git+https://github.com/RHMDHDYT/googlechat-mcp googlechat-mcp

Verify:

claude mcp list
claude mcp get googlechat

Alternative: install from a local clone

If you'd rather run from source:

git clone https://github.com/RHMDHDYT/googlechat-mcp
cd googlechat-mcp
pip install mcp protobuf requests

Then point the config at server.py directly:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "googlechat": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["/absolute/path/to/googlechat-mcp/server.py"],
      "env": {
        "GCHAT_COOKIES": "/absolute/path/to/cookies.json"
      }
    }
  }
}

If you drop cookies.json directly into the googlechat-mcp/ folder, the server reads it automatically and you can omit the GCHAT_COOKIES env var.
