Gemini CLI

Note:

• Gemini's knowledge cutoff means it may struggle with very recent events or factual details. For latest information, prefer web search.

• Always set max timeout limit because it can take quite long time for responses. If it still times out, use exponential backoff when waiting(sleep) for bash output.

• If gemini returns empty response, try explicitly ask it to continue in the same session.

New Conversation (clears context and creates new session)

Use this tool only when to start a new conversation. Never use it if you want to continue conversation.

Copygemini "$(cat << 'EOF'
hello
EOF
)"

Continue conversation (primary tool)

Copygemini -r latest -p "$(cat << 'EOF'
follow up
EOF
)"

List sessions

Use it to check session uuid for continue from session.

Copygemini --list-sessions

Continue from session

Use to continue conversation.

Copygemini -r {uuid} -p "$(cat << 'EOF'
follow up
EOF
)"
