Gemini CLI: your open-source AI agent

"For developers, the command line interface (CLI) isn't just a tool; it's home. The terminal’s efficiency, ubiquity and portability make it the go-to utility for getting work done. And as developers' reliance on the terminal endures, so does the demand for integrated AI assistance.

That’s why we’re introducing Gemini CLI, an open-source AI agent that brings the power of Gemini directly into your terminal. It provides lightweight access to Gemini, giving you the most direct path from your prompt to our model. While it excels at coding, we built Gemini CLI to do so much more. It’s a versatile, local utility you can use for a wide range of tasks, from content generation and problem solving to deep research and task management.

We’ve also integrated Gemini CLI with Google’s AI coding assistant, Gemini Code Assist, so that all developers — on free, Standard, and Enterprise Code Assist plans — get prompt-driven, AI-first coding in both VS Code and Gemini CLI."
