Ask Gemini
Executes the local gemini CLI to get coding assistance.
Note: This skill requires the gemini CLI to be installed and available in your system's PATH.
Quick start
Run a single query using positional prompt:
gemini "Your question or task here"
Common options
| Option | Description |
|---|
-m MODEL | Specify model |
-y, --yolo | Auto-approve all tool executions |
For all available options, run gemini --help
Examples
Ask a coding question:
gemini "How do I implement a binary search in Python?"
Use a specific model:
gemini -m gemini-2.5-pro "Review this code for potential issues"
Let Gemini make changes automatically:
gemini -y "Refactor this function to use async/await"
Notes
- Positional prompts run Gemini non-interactively and output result to stdout
- Gemini CLI uses the
GEMINI_API_KEY environment variable for authentication
- Use
-y/--yolo for automatic execution without confirmation prompts
- The command inherits the current working directory
