Google is bringing Gemini CLI to developers' terminals
Briefly

Google has launched Gemini CLI, a new open-source AI agent designed to enhance developers' command line experiences significantly. It integrates natural language prompts for coding, content generation, and research. Utilizing the advanced Gemini 2.5 Pro reasoning model, it supports a large token context, built-in Model Context Protocol, and Google Search. The CLI agent is free during its preview phase, aiming to compete with existing AI coding tools like GitHub Copilot. It offers 60 model requests per minute and 1,000 requests daily, potentially giving it an edge against competitors in the market.
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.
