-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.

+description: Trigger this skill when the user wants to start an asynchronous PR review, run background checks on a PR, or check the status of a previously started async PR review.
+---
+
+# Async PR Review
+
+This skill provides a set of tools to asynchronously review a Pull Request. It will create a background job to run the project's preflight checks, execute Gemini-powered test plans, and perform a comprehensive code review using custom prompts.
+
+This skill is designed to showcase an advanced "Agentic Asynchronous Pattern":
+1.  **Native Background Shells vs Headless Inference**: While Gemini CLI can natively spawn and detach background shell commands (using the `run_shell_command` tool with `is_background: true`), a standard bash background job cannot perform LLM inference. To conduct AI-driven code reviews and test generation in the background, the shell script *must* invoke the `gemini` executable headlessly using `-p`. This offloads the AI tasks to independent worker agents.
+2.  **Dynamic Git Scoping**: The review scripts avoid hardcoded paths. They use `git rev-parse --show-toplevel` to automatically resolve the root of the user's current project.
+3.  **Ephemeral Worktrees**: Instead of checking out branches in the user's main workspace, the skill provisions temporary git worktrees in `.gemini/tmp/async-reviews/pr-<number>`. This prevents git lock conflicts and namespace pollution.
+4.  **Agentic Evaluation (`check-async-review.sh`)**: The check script outputs clean JSON/text statuses for the main agent to parse. The interactive agent itself synthesizes the final assessment dynamically from the generated log files.
+
+## Workflow
+
+1.  **Determine Action**: Establish whether the user wants to start a new async review or check the status of an existing one.
+    *   If the user says "start an async review for PR #123" or similar, proceed to **Start Review**.
+    *   If the user says "check the status of my async review for PR #123" or similar, proceed to **Check Status**.
+
+### Start Review
+
+If the user wants to start a new async PR review:
+
+1.  Ask the user for the PR number if they haven't provided it.
+2.  Execute the `async-review.sh` script, passing the PR number as the first argument. Be sure to run it with the `is_background` flag set to true to ensure it immediately detaches.
+    ```bash
+    .gemini/skills/async-pr-review/scripts/async-review.sh <PR_NUMBER>
+    ```
+3.  Inform the user that the tasks have started successfully and they can check the status later.
+
+### Check Status
+
+If the user wants to check the status or view the final assessment of a previously started async review:
+
+1.  Ask the user for the PR number if they haven't provided it.
+2.  Execute the `check-async-review.sh` script, passing the PR number as the first argument:
+    ```bash
+    .gemini/skills/async-pr-review/scripts/check-async-review.sh <PR_NUMBER>
+    ```
+3.  **Evaluate Output**: Read the output from the script.
+    *   If the output contains `STATUS: IN_PROGRESS`, tell the user which tasks are still running.
+    *   If the output contains `STATUS: COMPLETE`, use your file reading tools (`read_file`) to retrieve the contents of `final-assessment.md`, `review.md`, `pr-diff.diff`, `npm-test.log`, and `test-execution.log` files from the `LOG_DIR` specified in the output.
+    *   **Final Assessment**: Read those files, synthesize their results, and give the user a concise recommendation on whether the PR builds successfully, passes tests, and if you recommend they approve it based on the review.

+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) => {
+  const toolLogs = rig.readToolLogs();
+  const toolCallIndex = toolLogs.findIndex(
+    (log) => log.toolRequest.name === 'cli_help',
+  );
+
+  expect(toolCallIndex).toBeGreaterThan(-1);
+  expect(toolCallIndex).toBeLessThan(5); // Called within first 5 turns
+};
+```

+# 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.

+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."

+  Use this skill when asked to review text and user-facing strings within the codebase. It ensures that these strings follow rules on clarity,
+  usefulness, brevity and style.
+---
+
+# String Reviewer
+
+## Instructions
+
+Act as a Senior UX Writer. Look for user-facing strings that are too long,
+unclear, or inconsistent. This includes inline text, error messages, and other
+user-facing text.
+
+Do NOT automatically change strings without user approval. You must only suggest
+changes and do not attempt to rewrite them directly unless the user explicitly
+asks you to do so.
+
+## Core voice principles
+
+The system prioritizes deterministic clarity over conversational fluff. We
+provide telemetry, not etiquette, ensuring the user retains absolute agency..
+
+1. **Deterministic clarity:** Distinguish between certain system/service states
+   (Cloud Billing, IAM, the System) and probabilistic AI analysis (Gemini).
+2. **System transparency:** Replace "Loading..." with active technical telemetry
+   (e.g., Tracing stack traces...). Keep status updates under 5 words.
+3. **Front-loaded actionability:** Always use the [Goal] + [Action] pattern.
+   Lead with intent so users can scan left-to-right.
+4. **Agentic error recovery:** Every error must be a pivot point. Pair failures
+   with one-click recovery commands or suggested prompts.
+5. **Contextual humility:** Reserve disclaimers and "be careful" warnings for P0
+   (destructive/irreversible) tasks only. Stop warning-fatigue.
+
+## The writing checklist
+
+Use this checklist to audit UI strings and AI responses.
+
+### Identity and voice
+- **Eliminate the "I":** Remove all first-person pronouns (I, me, my, mine).
+- **Subject attribution:** Refer to the AI as Gemini and the infrastructure as
+  the - system or the CLI.
+- **Active voice:** Ensure the subject (Gemini or the system) is clearly
+  performing the action.
+- **Ownership rule:** Use the system for execution (doing) and Gemini for
+  analysis (thinking)
+
+### Structural scannability
+- **The skip test:** Do the first 3 words describe the user’s intent? If not,
+  rewrite.
+- **Goal-first sequence:** Use the template: [To Accomplish X] + [Do Y].
+- **The 5-word rule:** Keep status updates and loading states under 5 words.
+- **Telemetry over etiquette:** Remove polite filler (Please wait, Thank you,
+  Certainly). Replace with raw data or progress indicators.
+- **Micro-state cycles:** For tasks $> 3$ seconds, cycle through specific
+  sub-states (e.g., Parsing logs... ➔ Identifying patterns...) to show momentum.
+
+
+### Technical accuracy and humility
+- **Verb signal check:** Use deterministic verbs (is, will, must) for system
+  state/infrastructure.
+  - Use probabilistic verbs (suggests, appears, may, identifies) for AI output.
+- **No 100% certainty:** Never attribute absolute certainty to model-generated
+  content.
+- **Precision over fuzziness:** Use technical metrics (latency, tokens, compute) instead of "speed" or "cost."
+- **Instructional warnings:** Every warning must include a specific corrective action (e.g., "Perform a dry-run first" or "Review line 42").
+
+### Agentic error recovery
+- **The one-step rule:** Pair every error message with exactly one immediate
+  path to a fix (command, link, or prompt).
+- **Human-first:** Provide a human-readable explanation before machine error
+  codes (e.g., 404, 500).
+-  **Suggested prompts:** Offer specific text for the user to copy/click like
+   “Ask Gemini: 'Explain this port error.'”
+
+### Use consistent terminology
+
+Ensure all terminology aligns with the project [word
+list](./references/word-list.md). 
+
+If a string uses a term marked "do not use" or "use with caution," provide a
+correction based on the preferred terms.
+
+## Ensure consistent style for settings
+
+If `packages/cli/src/config/settingsSchema.ts` is modified, confirm labels and
+descriptions specifically follow the unique [Settings
+guidelines](./references/settings.md).
+
+## Output format
+When suggesting changes, always present your review using the following list
+format. Do not provide suggestions outside of this list..
+
+```
+1. **{Rationale/Principle Violated}**
+  - ❌ "{incorrect phrase}"
+  - ✅ `"{corrected phrase}"`
+```

+# Settings
+
+## Noun-First Labeling (Scannability)
+
+Labels must start with the subject of the setting, not the action. This allows
+users to scan for the feature they want to change.
+
+- **Rule:** `[Noun]` `[Attribute/Action]`
+- **Example:** `Show line numbers` becomes simply `Line numbers`
+
+## Positive Boolean Logic (Cognitive Ease)
+
+Eliminate "double negatives." Booleans should represent the presence of a
+feature, not its absence.
+
+- **Rule:** Replace `Disable {feature}` or `Hide {Feature}` with
+  `{Feature} enabled` or simply `{Feature}`.
+- **Example:** Change "Disable auto update" to "Auto update".
+- **Implementation:** Invert the boolean value in your config loader so true
+  always equals `On`
+
+## Verb Stripping (Brevity)
+
+Remove redundant leading verbs like "Enable," "Use," "Display," or "Show" unless
+they are part of a specific technical term.
+
+- **Rule**: If the label works without the verb, remove it
+- **Example**: Change `Enable prompt completion` to `Prompt completion`

+## Terms
+
+### Preferred
+
+- Use **create** when a user is creating or setting up something.
+- Use **allow** instead of **may** to indicate that permission has been granted
+  to perform some action.
+- Use **canceled**, not **cancelled**.
+- Use **configure** to refer to the process of changing the attributes of a
+  feature, even if that includes turning on or off the feature.
+- Use **delete** when the action being performed is destructive.
+- Use **enable** for binary operations that turn a feature or API on. Use "turn
+  on" and "turn off" instead of "enable" and "disable" for other situations.
+- Use **key combination** to refer to pressing multiple keys simultaneously.
+- Use **key sequence** to refer to pressing multiple keys separately in order.
+- Use **modify** to refer to something that has changed vs obtaining the latest
+  version of something.
+- Use **remove** when the action being performed takes an item out of a larger
+  whole, but doesn't destroy the item itself.
+- Use **set up** as a verb. Use **setup** as a noun or adjective.
+- Use **show**. In general, use paired with **hide**.
+- Use **sign in**, **sign out** as a verb. Use **sign-in** or **sign-out** as a
+  noun or adjective.
+- Use **update** when you mean to obtain the latest version of something.
+- Use **want** instead of **like** or **would like**.
+
+#### Don't use
+
+- Don't use **etc.** It's redundant. To convey that a series is incomplete,
+  introduce it with "such as" instead.
+- Don't use **hostname**, use "host name" instead.
+- Don't use **in order to**. It's too formal. "Before you can" is usually better
+  in UI text.
+- Don't use **one or more**. Specify the quantity where possible. Use "at least
+  one" when the quantity is 1+ but you can't be sure of the number. Likewise,
+  use "at least one" when the user must choose a quantity of 1+.
+- Don't use the terms **log in**, **log on**, **login**, **logout** or **log
+  out**.
+- Don't use **like** or **would you like**. Use **want** instead. Better yet,
+  rephrase so that it's not referring to the user's emotional state, but rather
+  what is required.
+
+#### Use with caution
+
+- Avoid using **leverage**, especially as a verb. "Leverage" is considered a
+  buzzword largely devoid of meaning apart from the simpler "use".
+- Avoid using **once** as a synonym for "after". Typically, when "once" is used
+  in this way, it is followed by a verb in the perfect tense.
+- Don't use **e.g.** Use "example", "such as", "like", or "for example". The
+  phrase is always followed by a comma.
+- Don't use **i.e.** unless absolutely essential to make text fit. Use "that is"
+  instead.
+- Use **disable** for binary operations that turn a feature or API off. Use
+  "turn on" and "turn off" instead of "enable" and "disable" for other
+  situations. For UI elements that are not available, use "dimmed" instead of
+  "disabled".
+- Use **please** only when you're asking the user to do something inconvenient,
+  not just following the instructions in a typical flow.
+- Use **really** sparingly in such constructions as "Do you really want to..."
+  Because of the weight it puts on the decision, it should be used to confirm
+  actions that the user is extremely unlikely to make.

@@ -60,20 +60,45 @@ All submissions, including submissions by project members, require review. We
 use [GitHub pull requests](https://docs.github.com/articles/about-pull-requests)
 for this purpose.
 
-If your pull request involves changes to `packages/cli` (the frontend), we
-recommend running our automated frontend review tool. **Note: This tool is
-currently experimental.** It helps detect common React anti-patterns, testing
-issues, and other frontend-specific best practices that are easy to miss.

-To run the review tool, enter the following command from within Gemini CLI:
+#### Using the automated review tool
 
-```text
-/review-frontend <PR_NUMBER>
-```
+You can run the review tool in two ways:
 
-Replace `<PR_NUMBER>` with your pull request number. Authors are encouraged to
-run this on their own PRs for self-review, and reviewers should use it to
-augment their manual review process.
+1.  **Using the helper script (Recommended):** We provide a script that
+    automatically handles checking out the PR into a separate worktree,
+    installing dependencies, building the project, and launching the review
+    tool.
+
+    ```bash
+    ./scripts/review.sh <PR_NUMBER> [model]
+    ```
+
+    **Warning:** If you run `scripts/review.sh`, you must have first verified
+    that the code for the PR being reviewed is safe to run and does not contain
+    data exfiltration attacks.
+
+    **Authors are strongly encouraged to run this script on their own PRs**
+    immediately after creation. This allows you to catch and fix simple issues
+    locally before a maintainer performs a full review.
+
+    **Note on Models:** By default, the script uses the latest Pro model
+    (`gemini-3.1-pro-preview`). If you do not have enough Pro quota, you can run
+    it with the latest Flash model instead:
+    `./scripts/review.sh <PR_NUMBER> gemini-3-flash-preview`.
+
+2.  **Manually from within Gemini CLI:** If you already have the PR checked out
+    and built, you can run the tool directly from the CLI prompt:
+
+    ```text
+    /review-frontend <PR_NUMBER>
+    ```
+
+Replace `<PR_NUMBER>` with your pull request number. Reviewers should use this
+tool to augment, not replace, their manual review process.

+#### 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
 
-- **Plan Mode Enhancements**: Added support for annotating plans with feedback
-  for iteration, enabling built-in research subagents in plan mode, and a new
-  `copy` subcommand.
-- **Agent and Skill Improvements**: Introduced the new `github-issue-creator`
-  skill, implemented HTTP authentication support for A2A remote agents, and
-  added support for authenticated A2A agent card discovery.
-- **CLI UX/UI Updates**: Redesigned the header to be compact with an ASCII icon,
-  inverted the context window display to show usage, and directly indicate auth
-  required state for agents.
-- **Core and ACP Enhancements**: Implemented slash command handling in ACP (for
-  `/memory`, `/init`, `/extensions`, and `/restore`), added a set models
-  interface to ACP, and centralized `read_file` limits while truncating large
-  MCP tool output.
+- **Subagent Architecture Enhancements:** Significant updates to subagents,
+  including local execution, tool isolation, multi-registry discovery, dynamic
+  tool filtering, and JIT context injection.
+- **Enhanced Security & Sandboxing:** Implemented strict macOS sandboxing using
+  Seatbelt allowlist, native Windows sandboxing, and support for
+  "Write-Protected" governance files.
+- **Agent Context & State Management:** Introduced task tracker protocol
+  integration, 'blocked' statuses for tasks/todos, and `AgentSession` for
+  improved state management and replay semantics.
+- **Browser & ACP Capabilities:** Added privacy consent for the browser agent,
+  sensitive action controls, improved API token usage metadata, and gateway auth
+  support via ACP.
+- **CLI & UX Improvements:** Implemented a refreshed Composer layout, expanded

+# 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
+and can be found in this registry.
+
+For more general information about the registry, and how to use it with specific
+IDEs like JetBrains and Zed, refer to the
+[IDE Integration](../ide-integration/index.md) documentation.
+
+You can also find more information on the official
+[ACP Agent Registry](https://agentclientprotocol.com/get-started/registry) page.
+
+## 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
+  ```
+- **Create a Git worktree manually:**

+# Model steering (experimental)
+
+Model steering lets you provide real-time guidance and feedback to Gemini CLI
+while it is actively executing a task. This lets you correct course, add missing
+context, or skip unnecessary steps without having to stop and restart the agent.
+
+<!-- prettier-ignore -->
+> [!NOTE]
+> This is an experimental feature currently under active development and
+> may need to be enabled under `/settings`.
+
+Model steering is particularly useful during complex [Plan Mode](./plan-mode.md)
+workflows or long-running subagent executions where you want to ensure the agent
+stays on the right track.
+
+## Enabling model steering
+
+Model steering is an experimental feature and is disabled by default. You can
+enable it using the `/settings` command or by updating your `settings.json`
+file.
+
+1.  Type `/settings` in the Gemini CLI.
+2.  Search for **Model Steering**.
+3.  Set the value to **true**.
+
+Alternatively, add the following to your `settings.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "experimental": {
+    "modelSteering": true
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## Using model steering
+
+When model steering is enabled, Gemini CLI treats any text you type while the
+agent is working as a steering hint.
+
+1.  Start a task (for example, "Refactor the database service").
+2.  While the agent is working (the spinner is visible), type your feedback in
+    the input box.
+3.  Press **Enter**.
+
+Gemini CLI acknowledges your hint with a brief message and injects it directly
+into the model's context for the very next turn. The model then re-evaluates its
+current plan and adjusts its actions accordingly.
+
+### Common use cases
+
+You can use steering hints to guide the model in several ways:
+
+- **Correcting a path:** "Actually, the utilities are in `src/common/utils`."
+- **Skipping a step:** "Skip the unit tests for now and just focus on the
+  implementation."
+- **Adding context:** "The `User` type is defined in `packages/core/types.ts`."
+- **Redirecting the effort:** "Stop searching the codebase and start drafting
+  the plan now."
+- **Handling ambiguity:** "Use the existing `Logger` class instead of creating a
+  new one."
+
+## How it works
+
+When you submit a steering hint, Gemini CLI performs the following actions:
+
+1.  **Immediate acknowledgment:** It uses a small, fast model to generate a
+    one-sentence acknowledgment so you know your hint was received.
+2.  **Context injection:** It prepends an internal instruction to your hint that
+    tells the main agent to:
+    - Re-evaluate the active plan.
+    - Classify the update (for example, as a new task or extra context).
+    - Apply minimal-diff changes to affected tasks.
+3.  **Real-time update:** The hint is delivered to the agent at the beginning of
+    its next turn, ensuring the most immediate course correction possible.

+> [!NOTE]

+[Plan Mode](./plan-mode.md), letting you switch to other windows while Gemini
+CLI works in the background.
+
+## Requirements
+
+### Terminal support
+
+The CLI uses the OSC 9 terminal escape sequence to trigger system notifications.
+This is supported by several modern terminal emulators including iTerm2,
+WezTerm, Ghostty, and Kitty. If your terminal does not support OSC 9
+notifications, Gemini CLI falls back to a terminal bell (BEL) to get your
+attention. Most terminals respond to BEL with a taskbar flash or system alert
+sound.
+
+## Enable notifications
+
+Notifications are disabled by default. You can enable them using the `/settings`
+command or by updating your `settings.json` file.
+
+1.  Open the settings dialog by typing `/settings` in an interactive session.
+2.  Navigate to the **General** category.

+  tool approval. This helps you know when the CLI has paused and needs you to
+  intervene.
+- **Session complete:** Triggered when a session finishes successfully. This is
+  useful for tracking the completion of automated tasks.

+## Non-interactive execution
+
+When running Gemini CLI in non-interactive environments (such as headless
+scripts or CI/CD pipelines), Plan Mode optimizes for automated workflows:
+
+- **Automatic transitions:** The policy engine automatically approves the
+  `enter_plan_mode` and `exit_plan_mode` tools without prompting for user
+  confirmation.
+- **Automated implementation:** When exiting Plan Mode to execute the plan,
+  Gemini CLI automatically switches to
+  [YOLO mode](../reference/policy-engine.md#approval-modes) instead of the
+  standard Default mode. This allows the CLI to execute the implementation steps
+  automatically without hanging on interactive tool approvals.
+
+**Example:**
+
+```bash
+gemini --approval-mode plan -p "Analyze telemetry and suggest improvements"
+```

-### 3. LXC/LXD (Linux only, experimental)
+### 3. Windows Native Sandbox (Windows only)
+
+... **Troubleshooting and Side Effects:**
+
+The Windows Native sandbox uses the `icacls` command to set a "Low Mandatory
+Level" on files and directories it needs to write to.
+
+- **Persistence**: These integrity level changes are persistent on the
+  filesystem. Even after the sandbox session ends, files created or modified by
+  the sandbox will retain their "Low" integrity level.
+- **Manual Reset**: If you need to reset the integrity level of a file or
+  directory, you can use:
+  ```powershell
+  icacls "C:\path\to\dir" /setintegritylevel Medium
+  ```
+- **System Folders**: The sandbox manager automatically skips setting integrity
+  levels on system folders (like `C:\Windows`) for safety.

+Strongest isolation available: runs containers inside a user-space kernel via
+[gVisor](https://github.com/google/gvisor). gVisor intercepts all container

+strong security barrier between AI operations and the host OS.
+
+**Prerequisites:**
+
+- Linux (gVisor supports Linux only)
+- Docker installed and running
+- gVisor/runsc runtime configured
+
+When you set `sandbox: "runsc"`, Gemini CLI runs
