gemini cli
Basic Information
Gemini CLI is an open source command line AI agent that brings Google Gemini model capabilities directly into the terminal. It is designed for developers who work from the command line and need fast, interactive access to a large language model for code understanding, generation, debugging, and automation. The CLI supports multimodal inputs and can generate or modify projects from PDFs, images, or sketches. It also runs non-interactively in scripts to support automation and CI workflows. The tool is extensible via MCP servers to add custom integrations and tools. It provides built-in grounding with Google Search, file and shell operations, web fetching, session checkpointing, and project-specific context via GEMINI.md. Installation is available via npx, npm, or Homebrew and it runs on Node.js 20 or higher across macOS, Linux, and Windows.
