+### Engine-Specific MCP Config Delivery
+
+Some AI engine CLIs do not support a `--mcp-config` flag and instead read MCP server configuration from engine-native config files. When implementing `RenderMCPConfig()` for such engines, write configuration to the engine's expected location rather than passing it via CLI flag.
+
+**Pattern: Standard CLI flag** (Claude, Copilot, Codex):
+```go
+// Engine reads MCP config from --mcp-config flag
+args = append(args, "--mcp-config", "/tmp/gh-aw/mcp-config/mcp-servers.json")
+```
+
+**Pattern: Engine-native config file** (Gemini):
+```bash
+# Gemini CLI does not support --mcp-config flag
+# Use a conversion script to write to .gemini/settings.json instead
+actions/setup/sh/convert_gateway_config_gemini.sh
+# Writes MCP server configuration to .gemini/settings.json (project-level)
+```
+
+**Implementation**: Use a shell script in `actions/setup/sh/` to convert the MCP gateway config to the engine's native format. Route the engine to this script via `start_mcp_gateway.sh`.
+
+```mermaid
+graph LR
+    GW[MCP Gateway Config] --> Script[convert_gateway_config_<engine>.sh]
+    Script --> NativeConfig[Engine-native config file]
+    NativeConfig --> Engine[AI Engine CLI]
+```
+
+When adding a new engine, check the engine CLI's documentation to determine whether it supports `--mcp-config` or requires an alternative config delivery method.

 ## Executive Summary
 
-The agentic engine architecture is **well-designed and ready for extension**. The Interface Segregation Principle (ISP) implementation provides excellent flexibility for adding new engines while maintaining backward compatibility.
