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 with -p (non-interactive mode):
gemini -p "Your question or task here"
Common options
| Option | Description |
|--------|-------------|
| -p | Non-interactive mode (required for scripting) |
| -m MODEL | Specify model |
| -y, --yolo | Auto-approve all tool executions |
| -r, --resume latest | Resume the most recent session |
For all available options, run
gemini --help
Examples
Ask a coding question:
gemini -p "How do I implement a binary search in Python?"
Use a specific model:
gemini -p -m gemini-3.1-pro-preview "Review this code for potential issues"
Let Gemini make changes automatically:
gemini -y -p "Refactor this function to use async/await"
Continue a previous session:
gemini --resume latest -p "Now add error handling to that function"
Notes
- The
-pflag runs Gemini non-interactively and outputs result to stdout - Gemini CLI uses the
GEMINI_API_KEYenvironment variable for authentication - Use
-y/--yolofor automatic execution without confirmation prompts - The command inherits the current working directory
