This commit introduces the compactToolOutput feature to optimize terminal vertical space usage for common, high-volume tools.
1. Compact Tool Output UI:
- Added DenseToolMessage component for rendering compact, single-line tool summaries.
- Updated ToolGroupMessage to detect contiguous compact tools and render them with stitched borders for a streamlined look.
- Added Ctrl+O shortcut in AppContainer to toggle full expansion of tool results from the last turn.
- Implemented useGeminiStream border logic to correctly render borders around dense sections.
2. Core Tool Structured Results:
- grep: Updated to return GrepResult with matches, file paths, and line numbers instead of a raw formatted string.
- ls (list_directory): Updated to return ListDirectoryResult with an array of files.
- read_many_files: Updated to return ReadManyFilesResult with read files, skipped files, and reasons.
- Modified ToolResultDisplay and isStructuredToolResult type guards to support these new structured interfaces.
3. User Settings & Documentation:
- Added compactToolOutput to the UI settings schema (default: true).
- Updated configuration docs and schema to reflect the new setting.
- Adjusted compact subview line limits (COMPACT_TOOL_SUBVIEW_MAX_LINES).
test(cli): refine settings and tool action mocks to resolve test rig regressions
This update addresses incomplete settings store contracts and default state mismatches that caused snapshot runtime errors and verification failures in compact tool output tests.
1. Settings Mock Completeness:
- Updated `createMockSettings` in `mockConfig.ts` to include required functional methods (`subscribe`, `getSnapshot`, `setValue`) to satisfy React's `useSyncExternalStore` contract. This resolves "store.getSnapshot is not a function" errors in snapshot tests.
2. Tool Actions Provider Configuration:
- Modified `renderWithProviders` to accept a `toolActions` options object, allowing individual tests to inject specific tool expansion states.
- Changed the default mock for `isExpanded` from `true` to `false` to align with the application's default behavior (collapsed outputs) in alternate buffer mode.
3. Test Refactoring:
- Refactored `ToolGroupMessage.compact.test.tsx` to use the standardized `createMockSettings` utility rather than a manual generic object, ensuring proper context evaluation during rendering.
refactor(cli): address nuanced snapshot rendering scenarios through layout and padding refinements
- Refined height calculation logic in ToolGroupMessage to ensure consistent spacing between compact and standard tools.
- Adjusted padding and margins in StickyHeader, ToolConfirmationQueue, ShellToolMessage, and ToolMessage for visual alignment.
- Updated TOOL_RESULT_STANDARD_RESERVED_LINE_COUNT to account for internal layout changes.
- Improved ToolResultDisplay height handling in alternate buffer mode.
- Updated test snapshots to reflect layout and spacing corrections.
refactor(cli): cleanup and simplify UI components
- Reduced UI refresh delay in AppContainer.tsx for a more responsive user experience.
- Reorder imports and hook definitions within AppContainer.tsx to reduce diff 'noise'.
refactor(cli): enhance compact output robustness and visual regression testing
Addressing automated review feedback to improve code maintainability and layout stability.
1. Robust File Extension Parsing:
- Introduced getFileExtension utility in packages/cli/src/ui/utils/fileUtils.ts using node:path for reliable extension extraction.
- Updated DenseToolMessage and DiffRenderer to use the new utility, replacing fragile string splitting.
2. Visual Regression Coverage:
- Added SVG snapshot tests to DenseToolMessage.test.tsx to verify semantic color rendering and layout integrity in compact mode.
fix(cli): resolve dense tool output code quality issues
- Replaced manual string truncation with Ink's `wrap="truncate-end"` to adhere to UI guidelines.
- Added `isReadManyFilesResult` type guard to `packages/core/src/tools/tools.ts` to improve typing for structured tool results.
- Fixed an incomplete test case in `DenseToolMessage.test.tsx` to properly simulate expansion via context instead of missing mouse events.
No intentional different behavior aside for tweaks suggested from the code review of #506 Refactor: Extract console message logic to custom hook
This commit refactors the console message handling from App.tsx into a new custom hook useConsoleMessages.
This change improves the testability of the console message logic and declutters the main App component.
Created useConsoleMessages.ts to encapsulate console message state and update logic.
Updated App.tsx to utilize the new useConsoleMessages hook.
Added unit tests for useConsoleMessages.ts to ensure its functionality.
I deleted and started over on LoadingIndicator.test.tsx as I spent way too much time trying to fix it before just regenerating the tests as the code was easier to write tests for from scratch and the existing tests were not that good (I added them in the previous pull request).
This commit introduces the initial codebase for the Gemini Code CLI, a command-line interface designed to facilitate interaction with the Gemini API for software engineering tasks.
The code was migrated from a previous git repository as a single squashed commit.
Core Features & Components:
* **Gemini Integration:** Leverages the `@google/genai` SDK to interact with the Gemini models, supporting chat history, streaming responses, and function calling (tools).
* **Terminal UI:** Built with Ink (React for CLIs) providing an interactive chat interface within the terminal, including input prompts, message display, loading indicators, and tool interaction elements.
* **Tooling Framework:** Implements a robust tool system allowing Gemini to interact with the local environment. Includes tools for:
* File system listing (`ls`)
* File reading (`read-file`)
* Content searching (`grep`)
* File globbing (`glob`)
* File editing (`edit`)
* File writing (`write-file`)
* Executing bash commands (`terminal`)
* **State Management:** Handles the streaming state of Gemini responses and manages the conversation history.
* **Configuration:** Parses command-line arguments (`yargs`) and loads environment variables (`dotenv`) for setup.
* **Project Structure:** Organized into `core`, `ui`, `tools`, `config`, and `utils` directories using TypeScript. Includes basic build (`tsc`) and start scripts.
This initial version establishes the foundation for a powerful CLI tool enabling developers to use Gemini for coding assistance directly in their terminal environment.
