Ask Gemini (Local CLI)

Use the locally installed Gemini CLI as a direct external advisor for brainstorming, design feedback, and second opinions.

Usage

/ask-gemini <question or task>

Routing

Preferred: Local CLI execution

Run Gemini through the canonical OMB CLI command path (no MCP routing):

omb ask gemini "{{ARGUMENTS}}"

Exact non-interactive Gemini CLI command from gemini --help:

gemini -p "{{ARGUMENTS}}"
# equivalent: gemini --prompt "{{ARGUMENTS}}"

If needed, adapt to the user's installed Gemini CLI variant while keeping local execution as the default path.

Legacy compatibility entrypoints (./scripts/ask-gemini.sh, npm run ask:gemini -- ...) are transitional wrappers.

Missing binary behavior

If gemini is not found, do not switch to MCP. Instead:

1. Explain that local Gemini CLI is required for this skill.
2. Ask the user to install/configure Gemini CLI.
3. Provide a quick verification command:

gemini --version

Artifact requirement

After local execution, save a markdown artifact to:

.omb/artifacts/gemini-<slug>-<timestamp>.md

Minimum artifact sections:

1. Original user task
2. Final prompt sent to Gemini CLI
3. Gemini output (raw)
4. Concise summary
5. Action items / next steps

Task: {{ARGUMENTS}}
