Gemini CLI

Use Gemini in one-shot mode with a positional prompt (avoid interactive mode).

• Fallback: -m auto (use when default fails, e.g. 403 or 429)

Quick start

• gemini "Answer this question..."
• gemini --model <name> "Prompt..."
• gemini --output-format json "Return JSON"

Extensions

Notes

• If auth is required, run gemini once interactively and follow the login flow.
• Avoid --yolo for safety.
