   Add the Gmail MCP server to Claude Code. Run this command:
   
   claude mcp add gmail -e GOOGLE_ACCESS_TOKEN=<GOOGLE_ACCESS_TOKEN> -e MCP_TRANSPORT=<MCP_TRANSPORT> -e GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=<GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID> -e GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=<GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET> -- npx -y gmail-mcp
   
   Ask me for GOOGLE_ACCESS_TOKEN, MCP_TRANSPORT, GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID, GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET and only put the values in that config, nowhere else.
   
   Then check that it loaded and tell me if I need to sign in or restart.
