Gemini CLI

Google's AI agent in your terminal

Quick Setup

Copy and paste this prompt into Gemini CLI:

Create .gemini/GEMINI.md file in my project root with VerseKit integration:

# VerseKit Document Templates
When asked to create styled documents (README, API docs, proposals, reports):
1. Fetch template from https://versekit.io/api/templates/[slug]
2. Use the html_content from response.data
3. Replace all {{variable}} placeholders with actual content
4. Save as .html file

Popular slugs: github-readme, api-documentation, business-proposal, project-status-report
Browse all: https://versekit.io/explore

Gemini CLI will create .gemini/GEMINI.md in your project

How GEMINI.md Works

  • •Context Files: Gemini CLI reads .gemini/GEMINI.md
  • •Global: ~/.gemini/GEMINI.md for all projects
  • •Hierarchical: Files are merged from root to current directory
  • •Memory: Use /memory show to verify context

Useful Commands

/memory show

View loaded context files

/memory refresh

Reload context files

Usage Example

After setup, ask Gemini:

"Create a project status report using the project-status-report template"

Gemini will:

  • ✓ Fetch the template from VerseKit API
  • ✓ Analyze your project context
  • ✓ Replace placeholders with relevant content
  • ✓ Create a styled HTML document

Install Gemini CLI

npm install -g @anthropic-ai/gemini-cli
