What to do once Tolstoy is connected

Use your AI client for real Tolstoy actions: creative, widgets, media, and performance context.

Create product creative

Turn a launch brief or product page into product-image concepts, video ideas, and ad variants inside Tolstoy Studio.

Build from approved media

Find shoppable videos, product tags, and widget placements from Tolstoy Library before planning the next campaign.

Read performance context

Ask what is working across recent widgets and creative so the next test starts from evidence, not a blank prompt.

Set it up in 3 steps

1

Open Gemini CLI

Start a Gemini CLI session for the campaign, storefront task, or technical review you are already working on.

2

Add the Tolstoy server

Add Tolstoy as an MCP server in your Gemini CLI configuration. Name it Tolstoy and use:

3

Pair automation with assets

Use Gemini CLI on a real launch, PDP update, or creative test. The strongest prompts include the product, channel, and the decision your team needs to make.

Try: "Use Tolstoy to find the right product videos for this storefront update and draft the creative QA checklist before we ship."
