 ### Why can't I use third-party software (e.g. Claude Code, OpenClaw, OpenCode) with Gemini CLI?
 
-Using third-party software, tools, or services to access Gemini CLI is a
-violation of our [applicable terms and policies](tos-privacy.md), and severely
-degrades the experience for legitimate product users. Such actions may be
-grounds for suspension or termination of your account. If you would like to use
-a third-party coding agent with Gemini, we recommend using a Vertex or AI Studio
-API key.
+Using third-party software, tools, or services to harvest or piggyback on Gemini
+CLI's OAuth authentication to access our backend services is a direct violation
+of our [applicable terms and policies](tos-privacy.md). Doing so bypasses our
+intended authentication and security structures, and such actions may be grounds
+for immediate suspension or termination of your account. If you would like to
+use a third-party coding agent with Gemini, the supported and secure method is
+to use a Vertex AI or Google AI Studio API key.
