I use the Gemini mcp and my CLAUDE.md has instructions to consult Gemini for strategy. Seems to work well. I have the lowest Claude plan so I don’t know how this would work vs Opus, for example.

Separately, I have been meaning to implement a cheating detector — have run into Claude modifying problem statements, adding axioms, etc.

Okay thanks I'll try that.

Same here. I've thought about creating a utility that tells Claude it has to keep going until a test exits with nonzero status. But I'm concerned Claude would just fake everything to make the test pass.

Do you need an MCP for that? Why not tell Claude to call the Gemini CLI?

You could do that -- my understanding is that MCPs give Claude less to "think about" than having to use another program correctly, and therefore avoid context clutter. I could be wrong.
