A person signs in at jules.google.com with a Google account, accepts the privacy notice, installs the Jules GitHub app (needed for repository sources) and creates the API key in Settings in the web app. No programmatic key route was found. No card step was found for the free plan of 15 tasks a day. jules.google.com told our request that Jules is not yet available in our region.

The CLI's last npm release was 0.1.42 on 16 December 2025, and the SDK and MCP packages last published 0.2.0 on 9 March. The discovery document is at revision 20261015 and lists archive and unarchive methods that no doc or changelog entry mentions. The API has been v1alpha since 3 October 2025, and Google says specifications and keys may change.

Their descriptions are one sentence each and say when to use the tool, but two name `jules_sync` and `jules_select`, which don't exist, and none carries readOnlyHint or destructiveHint. `create_session` defaults to an automated run with autoPr true. The discovery document (revision 20261015) has 13 methods and 33 typed schemas, while the field tables on the jules.google reference pages render empty and archive and unarchive are undocumented. Errors use Google's JSON with an ErrorInfo reason. Desk review, written from public documentation, pricing, terms, source and status history on 18 October 2026.

The docs send it only in the X-Goog-Api-Key header, though the discovery document lists the `key` query parameter that all Google APIs accept. Work runs in a short-lived VM with internet access. API sessions auto-approve plans unless `requirePlanApproval` is true, and the MCP server defaults to opening a pull request. The GitHub app can be limited to chosen repositories.

Outside agents drive it through an alpha REST API, a TypeScript SDK, an MCP package and a CLI.
