Google has announced the launch of an AI Open Source agent that offers simple access to Gemini and a direct channel between the indications of the developer that uses it and the Google model. His name is Gemini Cliy is designed to facilitate development work. It is a free agent, whose details can be accessed on its Github page, and to use it it is only necessary to log in with a Google account and get a free Gemini Code Assist license.
This free license offers access to Gemini 2.5 Pro and its context window, with a million tokens. Developers can inspect the Gemini Cli code to see how it works and be able to verify the implications it has in terms of security. Google has confirmed that developers who want to contribute to the project. To do this, you can report errors, suggest characteristics, improve your safety practices and, of course, send improvements in your code.
The limits of use of Gemini CLI are quite broad, since it allows the model to be made 60 applications per minute, and a thousand requests per day without cost. The agent is a utility that can be deployed and used at home, which can be used for very diverse tasks, in addition to as a complement for developers when writing code. They can also be used to venerate content, solve different types of problems, manage tasks or investigate in -depth issues.
Gemini Cli allows you to associate the queries made with the Google search engine, so that the model looks for information on web pages and uses external context in real time. In addition, it allows to expand its capacities, thanks to the compatibility integrated with the MCP protocol (protocol context model) and the extensions it includes.
On the other hand, it allows you to customize prompts and instructions, so that agent can adapt Gemini Cli to their specific work needs and flows. Another of its functions is the automation of tasks for integration with existing workflows, through non -interactive invocations to Gemini Cli within the generated scripts.
