+
+Here is the recommended configuration:
+
+```json
+{
+  "appium-mcp": {
+    "disabled": false,
+    "timeout": 100,
+    "type": "stdio",
+    "command": "npx",
+    "args": ["appium-mcp@latest"],
+    "env": {
+      "ANDROID_HOME": "/Users/xyz/Library/Android/sdk"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Note:** Make sure to update the `ANDROID_HOME` path to match your Android SDK installation path.
+
+### With Gemini CLI
+
+Use the Gemini CLI to add the MCP Appium server:
+
+```bash
+gemini mcp add appium-mcp npx -y appium-mcp@latest
+```
+
+This will automatically configure the MCP server for use with Gemini. Make sure to update the `ANDROID_HOME` environment variable in the configuration to match your Android SDK path.
