-prompt = """
-You are an expert at fixing behavioral evaluations.
-
-1. **Investigate**:
-   - Use 'gh' cli to fetch the results from the latest run from the main branch: https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/actions/workflows/evals-nightly.yml.
-   - DO NOT push any changes or start any runs. The rest of your evaluation will be local.
-   - Evals are in evals/ directory and are documented by evals/README.md.
-   - The test case trajectory logs will be logged to evals/logs.
-   - You should also enable and review the verbose agent logs by setting the GEMINI_DEBUG_LOG_FILE environment variable.
-   - Identify the relevant test. Confine your investigation and validation to just this test.
-   - Proactively add logging that will aid in gathering information or validating your hypotheses.
-
-2. **Fix**:
-   - If a relevant test is failing, locate the test file and the corresponding prompt/code.
-   - It's often helpful to make an extreme, brute force change to see if you are changing the right place to make an improvement and then scope it back iteratively.
-   - Your **final** change should be **minimal and targeted**.
-   - Keep in mind the following:
-     - The prompt has multiple configurations and pieces. Take care that your changes
-       end up in the final prompt for the selected model and configuration.
-     - The prompt chosen for the eval is intentional. It's often vague or indirect
-       to see how the agent performs with ambiguous instructions. Changing it should
-       be a last resort.
-     - When changing the test prompt, carefully consider whether the prompt still tests
-       the same scenario. We don't want to lose test fidelity by making the prompts too
-       direct (i.e.: easy).
-     - Your primary mechanism for improving the agent's behavior is to make changes to
-       tool instructions, system prompt (snippets.ts), and/or modules that contribute to the prompt.
-     - If prompt and description changes are unsuccessful, use logs and debugging to
-       confirm that everything is working as expected.
-    - If unable to fix the test, you can make recommendations for architecture changes
-      that might help stablize the test. Be sure to THINK DEEPLY if offering architecture guidance.
-      Some facts that might help with this are:
-      - Agents may be composed of one or more agent loops.
-      - AgentLoop == 'context + toolset + prompt'. Subagents are one type of agent loop.
-      - Agent loops perform better when:
-        - They have direct, unambiguous, and non-contradictory prompts.
-        - They have fewer irrelevant tools.
-        - They have fewer goals or steps to perform.
-        - They have less low value or irrelevant context.
-      - You may suggest compositions of existing primitives, like subagents, or
-        propose a new one.
-      - These recommendations should be high confidence and should be grounded
-        in observed deficient behaviors rather than just parroting the facts above.
-        Investigate as needed to ground your recommendations.
-
-3. **Verify**:
-   - Run just that one test if needed to validate that it is fixed. Be sure to run vitest in non-interactive mode.
-   - Running the tests can take a long time, so consider whether you can diagnose via other means or log diagnostics before committing the time. You must minimize the number of test runs needed to diagnose the failure.
-   - After the test completes, check whether it seems to have improved.
-   - You will need to run the test 3 times for Gemini 3.0, Gemini 3 flash, and Gemini 2.5 pro to ensure that it is truly stable. Run these runs in parallel, using scripts if needed.
-   - Some flakiness is expected; if it looks like a transient issue or the test is inherently unstable but passes 2/3 times, you might decide it cannot be improved.
-
-4. **Report**:
-   - Provide a summary of the test success rate for each of the tested models.
-   - Success rate is calculated based on 3 runs per model (e.g., 3/3 = 100%).
-   - If you couldn't fix it due to persistent flakiness, explain why.

-You are an expert at analyzing and promoting behavioral evaluations.

-1. **Investigate**:
-   - Use 'gh' cli to fetch the results from the most recent run from the main branch: https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/actions/workflows/evals-nightly.yml.
-   - DO NOT push any changes or start any runs. The rest of your evaluation will be local.
-   - Evals are in evals/ directory and are documented by evals/README.md.
-   - Identify tests that have passed 100% of the time for ALL enabled models across the past 7 runs in a row.
-   - NOTE: the results summary from the most recent run contains the last 7 runs test results. 100% means the test passed 3/3 times for that model and run.
-   - If a test meets this criteria, it is a candidate for promotion.
-
-2. **Promote**:
-   - For each candidate test, locate the test file in the evals/ directory.
-   - Promote the test according to the project's standard promotion process (e.g., moving it to a stable suite, updating its tags, or removing skip/flaky annotations). 
-   - Ensure you follow any guidelines in evals/README.md for stable tests.
-   - Your **final** change should be **minimal and targeted** to just promoting the test status.
-
-3. **Verify**:
-   - Run the promoted tests locally to validate that they still execute correctly. Be sure to run vitest in non-interactive mode.
-   - Check that the test is now part of the expected standard or stable test suites.
-
-4. **Report**:
-   - Provide a summary of the tests that were promoted.
-   - Include the success rate evidence (7/7 runs passed for all models) for each promoted test.
-   - If no tests met the criteria for promotion, clearly state that and summarize the closest candidates.

+description: Guidance for creating, running, fixing, and promoting behavioral evaluations. Use when verifying agent decision logic, debugging failures, debugging prompt steering, or adding workspace regression tests.
+---
+
+# Behavioral Evals
+
+## Overview
+
+Behavioral evaluations (evals) are tests that validate the **agent's decision-making** (e.g., tool choice) rather than pure functionality. They are critical for verifying prompt changes, debugging steerability, and preventing regressions.
+
+> [!NOTE]
+> **Single Source of Truth**: For core concepts, policies, running tests, and general best practices, always refer to **[evals/README.md](file:///Users/abhipatel/code/gemini-cli/docs/evals/README.md)**.
+
+---
+
+## 🔄 Workflow Decision Tree
+
+1.  **Does a prompt/tool change need validation?**
+    *   *No* -> Normal integration tests.
+    *   *Yes* -> Continue below.
+2.  **Is it UI/Interaction heavy?**
+    *   *Yes* -> Use `appEvalTest` (`AppRig`). See **[creating.md](references/creating.md)**.
+    *   *No* -> Use `evalTest` (`TestRig`). See **[creating.md](references/creating.md)**.
+3.  **Is it a new test?**
+    *   *Yes* -> Set policy to `USUALLY_PASSES`.
+    *   *No* -> `ALWAYS_PASSES` (locks in regression).
+4.  **Are you fixing a failure or promoting a test?**
+    *   *Fixing* -> See **[fixing.md](references/fixing.md)**.
+    *   *Promoting* -> See **[promoting.md](references/promoting.md)**.
+
+---
+
+## 📋 Quick Checklist
+
+### 1. Setup Workspace
+Seed the workspace with necessary files using the `files` object to simulate a realistic scenario (e.g., NodeJS project with `package.json`).
+*   *Details in **[creating.md](references/creating.md)***
+
+### 2. Write Assertions
+Audit agent decisions using `rig.setBreakpoint()` (AppRig only) or index verification on `rig.readToolLogs()`.
+*   *Details in **[creating.md](references/creating.md)***
+
+### 3. Verify
+Run single tests locally with Vitest. Confirm stability locally before relying on CI workflows.
+*   *See **[evals/README.md](file:///Users/abhipatel/code/gemini-cli/docs/evals/README.md)** for running commands.*

+
+---
+
+## 🏗️ Scenario Design
+
+Evals must simulate realistic agent environments to effectively test
+decision-making.
+
+- **Workspace State**: Seed with standard project anchors if testing general
+  capabilities:
+  - `package.json` for NodeJS environments.
+  - Minimal configuration files (`tsconfig.json`, `GEMINI.md`).
+- **Structural Complexity**: Provide enough files to force the agent to _search_
+  or _navigate_, rather than giving the answer directly. Avoid trivial one-file
+  tests unless testing exact prompt steering.
+
+---
+
+## ❌ Fail First Principle
+
+Before asserting a new capability or locking in a fix, **verify that the test
+fails first**.
+
+- It is easy to accidentally write an eval that asserts behaviors that are
+  already met or pass by default.
+- **Process**: reproduce failure with test -> apply fix (prompt/tool) -> verify
+  test passes.
+
+---
+
+## ✋ Testing Patterns
+
+### 1. Breakpoints
+
+Verifies the agent _intends_ to use a tool BEFORE executing it. Useful for
+interactive prompts or safety checks.
+
+```typescript
+// ⚠️ Only works with appEvalTest (AppRig)
+setup: async (rig) => {
+  rig.setBreakpoint(['ask_user']);
+},
+assert: async (rig) => {
+  const confirmation = await rig.waitForPendingConfirmation('ask_user');
+  expect(confirmation).toBeDefined();
+}
+```
+
+### 2. Tool Confirmation Race
+
+When asserting multiple triggers (e.g., "enters plan mode then asks question"):
+
+```typescript
+assert: async (rig) => {
+  let confirmation = await rig.waitForPendingConfirmation([
+    'enter_plan_mode',
+    'ask_user',
+  ]);
+
+  if (confirmation?.name === 'enter_plan_mode') {
+    rig.acceptConfirmation('enter_plan_mode');
+    confirmation = await rig.waitForPendingConfirmation('ask_user');
+  }
+  expect(confirmation?.toolName).toBe('ask_user');
+};
+```
+
+### 3. Audit Tool Logs
+
+Audit exact operations to ensure efficiency (e.g., no redundant reads).
+
+```typescript
+assert: async (rig, result) => {
+  await rig.waitForTelemetryReady();
+  const toolLogs = rig.readToolLogs();
+
+  const writeCall = toolLogs.find(
+    (log) => log.toolRequest.name === 'write_file',
+  );
+  expect(writeCall).toBeDefined();
+};
+```
+
+### 4. Mock MCP Facades
+
+To evaluate tools connected via MCP without hitting live endpoints, load a mock
+server configuration in the `setup` hook.
+
+```typescript
+setup: async (rig) => {
+  rig.addMockMcpServer('workspace-server', 'google-workspace');
+},
+assert: async (rig) => {
+  await rig.waitForTelemetryReady();
+  const toolLogs = rig.readToolLogs();
+  const workspaceCall = toolLogs.find(
+    (log) => log.toolRequest.name === 'mcp_workspace-server_docs.getText'
+  );
+  expect(workspaceCall).toBeDefined();
+};
+```
+
+---
+
+## ⚠️ Safety & Efficiency Guardrails
+
+### 1. Breakpoint Deadlocks
+
+Breakpoints (`setBreakpoint`) pause execution. In standard `evalTest`,
+`rig.run()` waits for the process to exit _before_ assertions run. **This will
+hang indefinitely.**
+
+- **Use Breakpoints** for `appEvalTest` or interactive simulations.
+- **Use Audit Tool Logs** (above) for standard trajectory tests.
+
+### 2. Runaway Timeout
+
+Always set a budget boundary in the `EvalCase` to prevent runaway loops on
+quota:
+
+```typescript
+evalTest('USUALLY_PASSES', {
+  name: '...',
+  timeout: 60000, // 1 minute safety limit
+  // ...
+});
+```
+
+### 3. Efficiency Assertion (Turn limits)
+
+Check if a tool is called _early_ using index checks:
+
+```typescript
+assert: async (rig) => {

+# Fixing Behavioral Evals
+
+Use this guide when asked to debug, troubleshoot, or fix a failing behavioral
+evaluation.
+
+---
+
+## 1. 🔍 Investigate
+
+1.  **Fetch Nightly Results**: Use the `gh` CLI to inspect the latest run from
+    `evals-nightly.yml` if applicable.
+    - _Example view URL_:
+      `https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/actions/workflows/evals-nightly.yml`
+2.  **Isolate**: DO NOT push changes or start remote runs. Confine investigation
+    to the local workspace.
+3.  **Read Logs**:
+    - Eval logs live in `evals/logs/<test_name>.log`.
+    - Enable verbose debugging via `export GEMINI_DEBUG_LOG_FILE="debug.log"`.
+4.  **Diagnose**: Audit tool logs and telemetry. Note if due to setup/assert.
+    - **Tip**: Proactively add custom logging/diagnostics to check hypotheses.
+
+---
+
+## 2. 🛠️ Fix Strategy
+
+1.  **Targeted Location**: Locate the test case and the corresponding
+    prompt/code.
+2.  **Iterative Scope**: Make extreme change first to verify scope, then refine
+    to a minimal, targeted change.
+3.  **Assertion Fidelity**:
+    - Changing the test prompt is a **last resort** (prompts are often vague by
+      design).
+    - **Warning**: Do not lose test fidelity by making prompts too direct/easy.
+    - **Primary Fix Trigger**: Adjust tool descriptions, system prompts
+      (`snippets.ts`), or **modules that contribute to the prompt template**.
+    - **Warning**: Prompts have multiple configurations; ensure your fix targets
+      the correct config for the model in question.
+4.  **Architecture Options**: If prompt or instruction tuning triggers no
+    improvement, analyze loop composition.
+    - **AgentLoop**: Defined by `context + toolset + prompt`.
+    - **Enhancements**: Loops perform best with direct prompts, fewer irrelevant
+      tools, low goal density, and minimal low-value/irrelevant context.
+    - **Modifications**: Compose subagents or isolate tools. Ground in observed
+      traces.
+    - **Warning**: Think deeply before offering recommendations; avoid parroting
+      abstract design guidelines.
+
+---
+
+## 3. ✅ Verify
+
+1.  **Run Local**: Run Vitest in non-interactive mode on just the file.
+2.  **Log Audit**: Prioritize diagnosing failures via log comparison before
+    triggering heavy test runs.
+3.  **Stability Limit**: Run the test **3 times** locally on key models (can use
+    scripts to run in parallel for speed):
+    - **Gemini 3.0**
+    - **Gemini 3 Flash**
+    - **Gemini 2.5 Pro**
+4.  **Flakiness Rule**: If it passes 2/3 times, it may be inherent noise
+    difficult to improve without a structural split.
+
+---
+
+## 4. 📊 Report
+
+Provide a summary of:
+
+- Test success rate for each tested model (e.g., 3/3 = 100%).
+- Root cause identification and fix explanation.
+- If unfixed, provide high-confidence architecture recommendations.

+# Promoting Behavioral Evals
+
+Use this guide when asked to analyze nightly results and promote incubated tests
+to stable suites.
+
+---
+
+## 1. 🔍 Investigate candidates
+
+1.  **Audit Nightly Logs**: Use the `gh` CLI to fetch results from
+    `evals-nightly.yml` (Direct URL:
+    `https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/actions/workflows/evals-nightly.yml`).
+    - **Tip**: The aggregate summary from the most recent run integrates the
+      last 7 runs of history automatically.
+    - **Safety**: DO NOT push changes or start remote runs. All verification is
+      local.
+2.  **Assess Stability**: Identify tests that pass **100% of the time** across
+    ALL enabled models over the **last 7 nightly runs** in a row.
+    - _100% means the test passed 3/3 times for every model and run._
+3.  **Promotion Targets**: Tests meeting this criteria are candidates for
+    promotion from `USUALLY_PASSES` to `ALWAYS_PASSES`.
+
+---
+
+## 2. 🚥 Promotion Steps
+
+1.  **Locate File**: Locate the eval file in the `evals/` directory.
+2.  **Update Policy**: Modify the policy argument to `ALWAYS_PASSES`.
+    ```typescript
+    evalTest('ALWAYS_PASSES', { ... })
+    ```
+3.  **Targeting**: Follow guidelines in `evals/README.md` regarding stable suite
+    organization.
+4.  **Constraint**: Your final change must be **minimal and targeted** strictly
+    to promoting the test status. Do not refactor the test or setup fixtures.
+
+---
+
+## 3. ✅ Verify
+
+1.  **Run Prompted Tests**: Run the promoted test locally using non-interactive
+    Vitest to confirm structure validity.
+2.  **Verify Suite Inclusion**: Check that the test is successfully picked up by
+    standard runnable ranges.
+
+---
+
+## 4. 📊 Report
+
+Provide a summary of:
+
+- Which tests were promoted.
+- Provide the success rate evidence (e.g., 7/7 runs passed for all models).
+- If no candidates qualified, list the next closest candidates and their current
+  pass rate.

+# Running & Promoting Evals
+
+## 🛠️ Prerequisites
+
+Behavioral evals run against the compiled binary. You **must** build and bundle
+the project first after making changes:
+
+```bash
+npm run build && npm run bundle
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🏃‍♂️ Running Tests
+
+### 1. Configure Environment Variables
+
+Evals require a standard API key. If your `.env` file has multiple keys or
+comments, use this precise extraction setup:
+
+```bash
+export GEMINI_API_KEY=$(grep '^GEMINI_API_KEY=' .env | cut -d '=' -f2) && RUN_EVALS=1 npx vitest run --config evals/vitest.config.ts <file_name>
+```
+
+### 2. Commands
+
+| Command                             | Scope           | Description                                        |
+| :---------------------------------- | :-------------- | :------------------------------------------------- |
+| `npm run test:always_passing_evals` | `ALWAYS_PASSES` | Fast feedback, runs in CI.                         |
+| `npm run test:all_evals`            | All             | Runs nightly incubation tests. Sets `RUN_EVALS=1`. |
+
+### Target Specific File
+
+_Note: `RUN_EVALS=1` is required for incubated (`USUALLY_PASSES`) tests._
+
+```bash
+RUN_EVALS=1 npx vitest run --config evals/vitest.config.ts my_feature.eval.ts
+```
+
+---
+
+## 🐞 Debugging and Logs
+
+If a test fails, verify:
+
+- **Tool Trajectory Logs**:序列 of calls in `evals/logs/<test_name>.log`.
+- **Verbose Reasoning**: Capture raw buffer traces by setting
+  `GEMINI_DEBUG_LOG_FILE`:
+  ```bash
+  export GEMINI_DEBUG_LOG_FILE="debug.log"
+  ```
+
+---
+
+### 🎯 Verify Model Targeting
+
+- **Tip:** Standard evals benchmark against model variations. If a test passes
+  on Flash but fails on Pro (or vice versa), the issue is usually in the **tool
+  description**, not the prompt definition. Flash is sensitive to "instruction
+  bloat," while Pro is sensitive to "ambiguous intent."
+
+---
+
+## 🚥 deflaking & Promotion
+
+To maintain CI stability, all new evals follow a strict incubation period.
+
+### 1. Incubation (`USUALLY_PASSES`)
+
+New tests must be created with the `USUALLY_PASSES` policy.
+
+```typescript
+evalTest('USUALLY_PASSES', { ... })
+```
+
+They run in **Evals: Nightly** workflows and do not block PR merges.
+
+### 2. Investigate Failures
+
+If a nightly eval regresses, investigate via agent:
+
+```bash
+gemini /fix-behavioral-eval [optional-run-uri]
+```
+
+### 3. Promotion (`ALWAYS_PASSES`)
+
+Once a test scores 100% consistency over multiple nightly cycles:
+
+```bash
+gemini /promote-behavioral-eval
+```
+
+_Do not promote manually._ The command verifies trajectory logs before updating
+the file policy.

+name: ci
+description:
+  A specialized skill for Gemini CLI that provides high-performance, fail-fast
+  monitoring of GitHub Actions workflows and automated local verification of CI
+  failures. It handles run discovery automatically—simply provide the branch name.
+---
+
+# CI Replicate & Status
+
+This skill enables the agent to efficiently monitor GitHub Actions, triage
+failures, and bridge remote CI errors to local development. It defaults to
+**automatic replication** of failures to streamline the fix cycle.
+
+## Core Capabilities
+
+- **Automatic Replication**: Automatically monitors CI and immediately executes 
+  suggested test or lint commands locally upon failure.
+- **Real-time Monitoring**: Aggregated status line for all concurrent workflows
+  on the current branch.
+- **Fail-Fast Triage**: Immediately stops on the first job failure to provide a
+  structured report.
+
+## Workflow
+
+### 1. CI Replicate (`replicate`) - DEFAULT
+Use this as the primary path to monitor CI and **automatically** replicate 
+failures locally for immediate triage and fixing.
+- **Behavior**: When this workflow is triggered, the agent will monitor the CI
+  and **immediately and automatically execute** all suggested test or lint
+  commands (marked with 🚀) as soon as a failure is detected. 
+- **Tool**: `node .gemini/skills/ci/scripts/ci.mjs [branch]`
+- **Discovery**: The script **automatically** finds the latest active or recent
+  run for the branch. Do NOT manually search for run IDs.
+- **Goal**: Reproduce the failure locally without manual intervention, then
+  proceed to analyze and fix the code.
+
+### 1. CI Status (`status`)
+Use this when you have pushed changes and need to monitor the CI and reproduce
+any failures locally.
+- **Tool**: `node .gemini/skills/ci/scripts/ci.mjs [branch] [run_id]`
+- **Discovery**: The script **automatically** finds the latest active or recent
+  run for the branch. You should NOT manually search for \`run_id\` using \`gh run list\`
+  unless a specific historical run is requested. Simply provide the branch name.
+- **Step 1 (Monitor)**: Execute the tool with the branch name.
+- **Step 2 (Extract)**: Extract suggested \`npm test\` or \`npm run lint\` commands
+  from the output (marked with 🚀).
+- **Step 3 (Reproduce)**: Execute those commands locally to confirm the failure.
+- **Behavior**: It will poll every 15 seconds. If it detects a failure, it will
+  exit with a structured report and provide the exact commands to run locally.
+
+## Failure Categories & Actions
+
+- **Test Failures**: Agent should run the specific `npm test -w <pkg> -- <path>`
+  command suggested.
+- **Lint Errors**: Agent should run `npm run lint:all` or the specific package
+  lint command.
+- **Build Errors**: Agent should check `tsc` output or build logs to resolve
+  compilation issues.
+- **Job Errors**: Investigate `gh run view --job <job_id> --log` for
+  infrastructure or setup failures.
+
+## Noise Filtering
+The underlying scripts automatically filter noise (Git logs, NPM warnings, stack
+trace overhead). The agent should focus on the "Structured Failure Report"
+provided by the tool.

+description: Use this skill during code reviews to proactively investigate the codebase for duplicated functionality, reinvented wheels, or failure to reuse existing project best practices and shared utilities.
+---
+
+# Review Duplication
+
+## Overview
+
+This skill provides a structured workflow for investigating a codebase during a code review to identify duplicated logic, reinvented utilities, and missed opportunities to reuse established patterns. By executing this workflow, you ensure that new code integrates seamlessly with the existing project architecture.
+
+## Workflow: Investigating for Duplication
+
+When reviewing code, perform the following steps before finalizing your review:
+
+### 1. Extract Core Logic
+Analyze the new code to identify the core algorithms, utility functions, generic data structures, or UI components being introduced. Look beyond the specific business logic to see the underlying mechanics.
+
+### 2. Hypothesize Existing Locations & Trace Dependencies
+Think about where this type of code *would* live if it already existed in the project. Provide absolute paths from the repo root to disambiguate.
+- **Utilities:** `packages/core/src/utils/`, `packages/cli/src/utils/`
+- **UI Components:** `packages/cli/src/ui/components/`, `packages/cli/src/ui/`
+- **Services:** `packages/core/src/services/`, `packages/cli/src/services/`
+- **Configuration:** `packages/core/src/config/`, `packages/cli/src/config/`
+- **Core Logic:** Call out `packages/core/` if functionality does not appear React UI specific.
+
+**Trace Third-Party Dependencies:** If the PR introduces a new import for a utility library (e.g., `lodash.merge`, `date-fns`), trace how and where the project currently uses that library. There is likely an existing wrapper or shared utility.
+
+**Check Package Files:** Before flagging a custom implementation of a complex algorithm, check `package.json` to see if a standard library (like `lodash` or `uuid`) is already installed that provides this functionality.
+
+### 3. Investigate the Codebase (Sub-Agent Delegation)
+Delegate the heavy lifting of codebase investigation to specialized sub-agents. They are optimized to perform deep searches and semantic mapping without bloating your session history.
+
+To ensure a comprehensive review, you MUST formulate highly specific objectives for the sub-agents, providing them with the "scents" you discovered in Step 1.
+
+- **Codebase Investigator:** Use the `codebase_investigator` as your primary researcher. When delegating, formulate an objective that asks specific, investigative questions about the codebase, explicitly including these search vectors:
+  - **Structural Similarity:** Ask if existing code uses the same underlying APIs (e.g., "Does any existing code use `Intl.DateTimeFormat` or `setTimeout` for similar purposes?").
+  - **Naming Conventions:** Ask if there are existing symbols with similar naming patterns (e.g., "Are there existing symbols with naming patterns like `*Format*` or `*Debounce*`?").
+  - **Comments & Documentation:** Ask if keywords from the PR's comments or JSDoc exist in describing similar behavior elsewhere.
+  - **Architectural Fit:** Ask where this type of logic is currently centralized (e.g., "Where is centralized date formatting logic located?").
+  - **Refactoring Guidance:** Crucially, ask the sub-agent to explain *how* the new code could be refactored to use any existing logic it finds.
+- **Generalist Agent:** Use the `generalist` for detailed, turn-intensive comparisons. For example: "Review the implementation of `MyNewComponent` in the PR and compare it semantically against all components in `packages/ui/src`. Are there any existing components that could be extended or used instead?"
+- **Retain Fast Path for Simple Searches:** For extremely simple, unambiguous checks (e.g., "Does `package.json` include `lodash`?"), perform a direct search to save time. Default to delegation for any open-ended "investigations."
+
+### 4. Evaluate Best Practices
+Check if the new code aligns with the project's established conventions.
+- **Error Handling:** Does it use the project's standard error classes or logging mechanisms?
+- **State Management:** Does it bypass established stores or contexts?
+- **Styling:** Does it hardcode colors or spacing instead of using theme variables?
+If the PR introduces a new pattern, compare it against the documented standards and explicitly confirm if an existing project pattern should have been used instead.
+
+### 5. Formulate Constructive Feedback
+If you discover that the PR duplicates existing functionality or ignores a best practice:
+- Provide a clear review comment.
+- **Identify the Source:** Explicitly mention the absolute or project-relative file path and the specific symbol (function, component, class) that should be reused.
+- **Implementation Guidance:** Provide a brief code snippet or a clear explanation showing **how** to integrate the existing code to fulfill the task's requirements.
+- **Explain the Value:** Briefly explain why reusing the existing code is beneficial (e.g., maintainability, consistency, built-in edge case handling).
+
+Example comment:
+> "It looks like this PR introduces a new `formatDate` utility. We already have a robust, tested `formatDate` function in `src/utils/dateHelpers.ts`. 
+>
+> You can replace your implementation by importing it like this:
+> ```typescript
+> import { formatDate } from '../utils/dateHelpers';
+> 
+> // Then use it here:
+> const displayDate = formatDate(userDate, 'MMM Do, YYYY');
+> ```
+> Reusing this ensures that the date formatting remains consistent with the rest of the application and handles timezone conversions correctly."

+#### Required MCP Servers (preview)
+
+**Default**: empty
+
+Allows administrators to define MCP servers that are **always injected** into
+the user's environment. Unlike the allowlist (which filters user-configured
+servers), required servers are automatically added regardless of the user's
+local configuration.
+
+**Required Servers Format:**
+
+```json
+{
+  "requiredMcpServers": {
+    "corp-compliance-tool": {
+      "url": "https://mcp.corp/compliance",
+      "type": "http",
+      "trust": true,
+      "description": "Corporate compliance tool"
+    },
+    "internal-registry": {
+      "url": "https://registry.corp/mcp",
+      "type": "sse",
+      "authProviderType": "google_credentials",
+      "oauth": {
+        "scopes": ["https://www.googleapis.com/auth/scope"]
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Supported Fields:**
+
+- `url`: (Required) The full URL of the MCP server endpoint.
+- `type`: (Required) The connection type (`sse` or `http`).
+- `trust`: (Optional) If set to `true`, tool execution will not require user
+  approval. Defaults to `true` for required servers.
+- `description`: (Optional) Human-readable description of the server.
+- `authProviderType`: (Optional) Authentication provider (`dynamic_discovery`,
+  `google_credentials`, or `service_account_impersonation`).
+- `oauth`: (Optional) OAuth configuration including `scopes`, `clientId`, and
+  `clientSecret`.
+- `targetAudience`: (Optional) OAuth target audience for service-to-service
+  auth.
+- `targetServiceAccount`: (Optional) Service account email to impersonate.
+- `headers`: (Optional) Additional HTTP headers to send with requests.
+- `includeTools` / `excludeTools`: (Optional) Tool filtering lists.
+- `timeout`: (Optional) Timeout in milliseconds for MCP requests.
+
+**Client Enforcement Logic:**
+
+- Required servers are injected **after** allowlist filtering, so they are
+  always available even if the allowlist is active.
+- If a required server has the **same name** as a locally configured server, the
+  admin configuration **completely overrides** the local one.
+- Required servers only support remote transports (`sse`, `http`). Local
+  execution fields (`command`, `args`, `env`, `cwd`) are not supported.
+- Required servers can coexist with allowlisted servers — both features work
+  independently.

 ## Highlights
 
-- **Agent Architecture Enhancements:** Introduced HTTP authentication support
-  for A2A remote agents, authenticated A2A agent card discovery, and directly
-  indicated auth-required states.
-- **Plan Mode Updates:** Expanded Plan Mode capabilities with built-in research
-  subagents, annotation support for feedback during iteration, and a new `copy`
-  subcommand.
-- **CLI UX Improvements:** Redesigned the header to be compact with an ASCII
-  icon, inverted the context window display to show usage, and allowed sub-agent
-  confirmation requests in the UI while preventing background flicker.
-- **ACP & MCP Integrations:** Implemented slash command handling in ACP for
-  `/memory`, `/init`, `/extensions`, and `/restore`, added an MCPOAuthProvider,
-  and introduced a `set models` interface for ACP.
-- **Admin & Core Stability:** Enabled a 30-day default retention for chat
-  history, added tool name validation in TOML policy files, and improved tool
-  parameter extraction.
+- **Customizable Keyboard Shortcuts:** Significant improvements to input
+  flexibility with support for custom keybindings, literal character bindings,
+  and extended terminal protocol keys.
+- **Vim Mode Enhancements:** Further refinement of the Vim modal editing
+  experience, adding common motions like \`X\`, \`~\`, \`r\`, and \`f/F/t/T\`,
+  along with yank and paste support.
+- **Enhanced Security through Sandboxing:** Introduction of a unified
+  \`SandboxManager\` and integration of Linux-native sandboxing (bubblewrap and
+  seccomp) to isolate tool execution and improve system security.
+- **JIT Context Discovery:** Improved performance and accuracy by enabling
+  Just-In-Time context loading for file system tools, ensuring the model has the
+  most relevant information without overwhelming the context.
+- **Subagent & Performance Updates:** Subagents are now enabled by default,
+  supported by a model-driven parallel tool scheduler and code splitting for
+  faster startup and more efficient task execution.

+# ACP Mode
+
+ACP (Agent Client Protocol) mode is a special operational mode of Gemini CLI
+designed for programmatic control, primarily for IDE and other developer tool
+integrations. It uses a JSON-RPC protocol over stdio to communicate between
+Gemini CLI agent and a client.
+
+To start Gemini CLI in ACP mode, use the `--acp` flag:
+
+```bash
+gemini --acp
+```
+
+## Agent Client Protocol (ACP)
+
+ACP is an open protocol that standardizes how AI coding agents communicate with
+code editors and IDEs. It addresses the challenge of fragmented distribution,
+where agents traditionally needed custom integrations for each client. With ACP,
+developers can implement their agent once, and it becomes compatible with any
+ACP-compliant editor.
+
+For a comprehensive introduction to ACP, including its architecture and
+benefits, refer to the official
+[ACP Introduction](https://agentclientprotocol.com/get-started/introduction)
+documentation.
+
+### Existing integrations using ACP
+
+The ACP Agent Registry simplifies the distribution and management of
+ACP-compatible agents across various IDEs. Gemini CLI is an ACP-compatible agent

+
+## Architecture and protocol basics
+
+ACP mode establishes a client-server relationship between your tool (the client)
+and Gemini CLI (the server).
+
+- **Communication:** The entire communication happens over standard input/output
+  (stdio) using the JSON-RPC 2.0 protocol.
+- **Client's role:** The client is responsible for sending requests (e.g.,
+  prompts) and handling responses and notifications from Gemini CLI.
+- **Gemini CLI's role:** In ACP mode, Gemini CLI listens for incoming JSON-RPC
+  requests, processes them, and sends back responses.
+
+The core of the ACP implementation can be found in
+`packages/cli/src/acp/acpClient.ts`.
+
+### Extending with MCP
+
+ACP can be used with the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This lets an ACP client
+(like an IDE) expose its own functionality as "tools" that the Gemini model can
+use.
+
+1.  The client implements an **MCP server** that advertises its tools.
+2.  During the ACP `initialize` handshake, the client provides the connection
+    details for its MCP server.
+3.  Gemini CLI connects to the MCP server, discovers the available tools, and
+    makes them available to the AI model.
+4.  When the model decides to use one of these tools, Gemini CLI sends a tool
+    call request to the MCP server.
+
+This mechanism lets for a powerful, two-way integration where the agent can
+leverage the IDE's capabilities to perform tasks. The MCP client logic is in
+`packages/core/src/tools/mcp-client.ts`.
+
+## Capabilities and supported methods
+
+The ACP protocol exposes a number of methods for ACP clients (e.g. IDEs) to
+control Gemini CLI.
+
+### Core methods
+
+- `initialize`: Establishes the initial connection and lets the client to
+  register its MCP server.
+- `authenticate`: Authenticates the user.
+- `newSession`: Starts a new chat session.
+- `loadSession`: Loads a previous session.
+- `prompt`: Sends a prompt to the agent.
+- `cancel`: Cancels an ongoing prompt.
+
+### Session control
+
+- `setSessionMode`: Allows changing the approval level for tool calls (e.g., to
+  `auto-approve`).
+- `unstable_setSessionModel`: Changes the model for the current session.
+
+### File system proxy
+
+ACP includes a proxied file system service. This means that when the agent needs
+to read or write files, it does so through the ACP client. This is a security
+feature that ensures the agent only has access to the files that the client (and
+by extension, the user) has explicitly allowed.
+
+## Debugging and telemetry
+
+You can get insights into the ACP communication and the agent's behavior through
+debugging logs and telemetry.
+
+### Debugging logs
+
+To enable general debugging logs, start Gemini CLI with the `--debug` flag:
+
+```bash
+gemini --acp --debug
+```
+
+### Telemetry
+
+For more detailed telemetry, you can use the following environment variables to
+capture telemetry data to a file:
+
+- `GEMINI_TELEMETRY_ENABLED=true`
+- `GEMINI_TELEMETRY_TARGET=local`
+- `GEMINI_TELEMETRY_OUTFILE=/path/to/your/log.json`
+
+This will write a JSON log file containing detailed information about all the
+events happening within the agent, including ACP requests and responses. The
+integration test `integration-tests/acp-telemetry.test.ts` provides a working
+example of how to set this up.

+
+## How to enable Git worktrees
+
+Git worktrees are an experimental feature. You must enable them in your settings
+using the `/settings` command or by manually editing your `settings.json` file.
+
+1.  Use the `/settings` command.
+2.  Search for and set **Enable Git Worktrees** to `true`.
+
+Alternatively, add the following to your `settings.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "experimental": {
+    "worktrees": true
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## How to use Git worktrees
+
+Use the `--worktree` (`-w`) flag to create an isolated worktree and start Gemini
+CLI in it.
+
+- **Start with a specific name:** The value you pass becomes both the directory
+  name (within `.gemini/worktrees/`) and the branch name.
+
+  ```bash
+  gemini --worktree feature-search
+  ```
+
+- **Start with a random name:** If you omit the name, Gemini generates a random
+  one automatically (for example, `worktree-a1b2c3d4`).
+
+  ```bash
+  gemini --worktree
+  ```
+
+<!-- prettier-ignore -->
+> [!NOTE]
+> Remember to initialize your development environment in each new
+> worktree according to your project's setup. Depending on your stack, this
+> might include running dependency installation (`npm install`, `yarn`), setting
+> up virtual environments, or following your project's standard build process.
+
+## How to exit a Git worktree session
+
+When you exit a worktree session (using `/quit` or `Ctrl+C`), Gemini leaves the
+worktree intact so your work is not lost. This includes your uncommitted changes
+(modified files, staged changes, or untracked files) and any new commits you
+have made.
+
+Gemini prioritizes a fast and safe exit: it **does not automatically delete**
+your worktree or branch. You are responsible for cleaning up your worktrees
+manually once you are finished with them.
+
+When you exit, Gemini displays instructions on how to resume your work or how to
+manually remove the worktree if you no longer need it.
+
+## Resuming work in a Git worktree
+
+To resume a session in a worktree, navigate to the worktree directory and start
+Gemini CLI with the `--resume` flag and the session ID:
+
+```bash
+cd .gemini/worktrees/feature-search
+gemini --resume <session_id>
+```
+
+## Managing Git worktrees manually
+
+For more control over worktree location and branch configuration, or to clean up
+a preserved worktree, you can use Git directly:
+
+- **Clean up a preserved Git worktree:**
+  ```bash
+  git worktree remove .gemini/worktrees/feature-search --force
+  git branch -D worktree-feature-search
+  ```

+### Inline Agent Card JSON
+
+<details>
+<summary>View formatting options for JSON strings</summary>
+
+If you don't have an endpoint serving the agent card, you can provide the A2A
+card directly as a JSON string using `agent_card_json`.
+
+When providing a JSON string in YAML, you must properly format it as a string
+scalar. You can use single quotes, a block scalar, or double quotes (which
+require escaping internal double quotes).
+
+#### Using single quotes
+
+Single quotes allow you to embed unescaped double quotes inside the JSON string.
+This format is useful for shorter, single-line JSON strings.
+
+```markdown
+---
+kind: remote
+name: single-quotes-agent
+agent_card_json:
+  '{ "protocolVersion": "0.3.0", "name": "Example Agent", "version": "1.0.0",
+  "url": "dummy-url" }'
+---
+```
+
+#### Using a block scalar
+
+The literal block scalar (`|`) preserves line breaks and is highly recommended
+for multiline JSON strings as it avoids quote escaping entirely. The following
+is a complete, valid Agent Card configuration using dummy values.
+
+```markdown
+---
+kind: remote
+name: block-scalar-agent
+agent_card_json: |
+  {
+    "protocolVersion": "0.3.0",
+    "name": "Example Agent Name",
+    "description": "An example agent description for documentation purposes.",
+    "version": "1.0.0",

+    "preferredTransport": "HTTP+JSON",

+      "streaming": true,
+      "extendedAgentCard": false

+    "defaultInputModes": [

+          "Show me an example."
+        ]
+      }
+    ]
+  }
+---
+```
+
+#### Using double quotes
+
+Double quotes are also supported, but any internal double quotes in your JSON
+must be escaped with a backslash.
+
+```markdown
+---
+kind: remote
+name: double-quotes-agent
+agent_card_json:

-
-## Rename your photographs based on content
-
-You can use Gemini CLI to automate file management tasks that require visual
-analysis. In this example, Gemini CLI renames images based on their actual
-subject matter.
-
-Scenario: You have a folder containing the following files:
-
-```bash
-photos/photo1.png
-photos/photo2.png
-photos/photo3.png
-```
-
-Give Gemini the following prompt:
-
-```cli
-Rename the photos in my "photos" directory based on their contents.
-```
-

-
-Gemini CLI returns an explanation based on the actual source code:
-
-```markdown
-The `chalk` library is a popular npm package for styling terminal output with
-colors. After analyzing the source code, here's how it works:
-
-- **Core functionality:** The main file sets up a chainable API. Each color or
-  modifier (like `bold` or `italic`) is a getter that appends the corresponding
-  ANSI escape code to an internal stack.
-
-- **Chainable API:** When you call `chalk.red.bold('Hello')`, you are accessing
-  getters. The `red` getter adds the red color code, and the `bold` getter adds
-  the bold code.
-
-- **Output generation:** When the chain is treated as a string (e.g., in
-  `console.log`), a final `toString()` method is called. This method joins all
-  the stored ANSI codes, wraps them around the input string ('Hello'), and adds
-  a reset code at the end. This produces the final, styled string that the
-  terminal can render.
-```
-
-## Combine two spreadsheets into one spreadsheet
-
-Gemini CLI can process and transform data across multiple files. Use this
-capability to merge reports or reformat data sets without manual copying.
-
-Scenario: You have two .csv files: `Revenue - 2023.csv` and
-`Revenue - 2024.csv`. Each file contains monthly revenue figures.
-
-Give Gemini CLI the following prompt:
-
-```cli
-Combine the two .csv files into a single .csv file, with each year a different column.
-```
-
-Result: Gemini CLI reads each file and then asks for permission to write a new
-file. Provide your permission and Gemini CLI provides the combined data:
-
-```csv

+## Agent Client Protocol (ACP)
+
+ACP is an open protocol that standardizes how AI coding agents communicate with
+code editors and IDEs. It addresses the challenge of fragmented distribution,
+where agents traditionally needed custom integrations for each client. With ACP,
+developers can implement their agent once, and it becomes compatible with any
+ACP-compliant editor.
+
+For a comprehensive introduction to ACP, including its architecture and
+benefits, refer to the official
+[ACP Introduction](https://agentclientprotocol.com/get-started/introduction)
+documentation.
+
+### The ACP Agent Registry
+
+Gemini CLI is officially available in the **ACP Agent Registry**. This allows
+you to install and update Gemini CLI directly within supporting IDEs and
+eliminates the need for manual downloads or IDE-specific extensions.
+
+Using the registry ensures:
+
+- **Ease of use**: Discover and install agents directly within your IDE
+  settings.
+- **Latest versions**: Ensures users always have access to the most up-to-date
+  agent implementations.
+
+For more details on how the registry works, visit the official
+[ACP Agent Registry](https://agentclientprotocol.com/get-started/registry) page.
+You can learn about how specific IDEs leverage this integration in the following
+section.
+
+### IDE-specific integration
+
+Gemini CLI is an ACP-compatible agent available in the ACP Agent Registry.
+Here’s how different IDEs leverage the ACP and the registry:
+
+#### JetBrains IDEs
+
+JetBrains IDEs (like IntelliJ IDEA, PyCharm, or GoLand) offer built-in registry
+support, allowing users to find and install ACP-compatible agents directly.
+
+For more details, refer to the official
+[JetBrains AI Blog announcement](https://blog.jetbrains.com/ai/2026/01/acp-agent-registry/).
+
+#### Zed
+
+Zed, a modern code editor, also integrates with the ACP Agent Registry. This
+allows Zed users to easily browse, install, and manage ACP agents.
+
+Learn more about Zed's integration with the ACP Registry in their
+[blog post](https://zed.dev/blog/acp-registry).
+
+#### Other ACP-compatible IDEs
+
+Any other IDE that supports the ACP Agent Registry can install Gemini CLI
+directly through their in-built registry features.
