-## Testing Standards
-*   **Async Testing**: ALWAYS use `waitFor` from `packages/cli/src/test-utils/async.ts` instead of `vi.waitFor` to prevent flakiness and `act` warnings. NEVER use fixed waits (e.g., `await delay(100)`).
-*   **State Changes**: Wrap all blocks that change component state in `act`.
-*   **Snapshots**: Use `toMatchSnapshot` to verify rendering.
-*   **Rendering**: Use `render` or `renderWithProviders` from `packages/cli/src/test-utils/render.tsx` instead of `ink-testing-library` directly.
-*   **Mocking**:
-    *   Reuse existing mocks/fakes where possible.
-    *   **Parameterized Tests**: Use parameterized tests with explicit types to reduce duplication and ensure type safety.
-    *   Avoid mocking the file system, os, or child_process if at all possible; if you have to mock the Mock critical dependencies (`fs`, `os`, `child_process`) do so ONLY at the top of the file.

-## React & Ink Architecture
-*   **Keyboard Handling**: You MUST use `useKeyPress.ts` from Gemini CLI for keyboard handling, NOT the standard ink library. This is critical for supporting slow terminals and multiple events per frame.
-    *   Handle multiple events gracefully (often requires a reducer pattern, see `text-buffer.ts`).
-*   **State Management**:

-    *   Initialize state explicitly (e.g., use `undefined` rather than `true` if unknown).
-*   **Performance**:
-    *   Avoid synchronous file I/O in components.
-    *   Do not introduce excessive property drilling; leverage or extend existing providers.
-
-## Configuration & Settings
-*   **Settings vs Args**: Use settings for user-configurable options; do not add new CLI arguments.
-*   **Schema**: Add new settings to `packages/cli/src/config/settingsSchema.ts`.

-6.  Consider ways the code may not be consistent with existing code in the repo. In particular it is critical that the react code uses patterns consistent with existing code in the repo.
-7.  Evaluate all tests on the changes and make sure that they are doing the following:
-   * Using `waitFor` from @{packages/cli/src/test-utils/async.ts} rather than
-     using `vi.waitFor` for all `waitFor` calls within `packages/cli`. Even if
-     tests pass, using the wrong `waitFor` could result in flaky tests as `act`
-     warnings could show up if timing is slightly different.
-   * Using `act` to wrap all blocks in tests that change component state.
-   * Using `toMatchSnapshot` to verify that rendering works as expected rather
-     than matching against the raw content of the output.
-   * If snapshots were changed as part of the changes, review the snapshots
-     changes to ensure they are intentional and comment if any look at all
-     suspicious. Too many snapshot changes that indicate bugs have been approved
-     in the past.
-   * Use `render` or `renderWithProviders` from
-     @{packages/cli/src/test-utils/render.tsx} rather than using `render` from
-     `ink-testing-library` directly. This is needed to ensure that we do not get
-     warnings about spurious `act` calls. If test cases specify providers
-     directly, consider whether the existing `renderWithProviders` should be
-     modified to support that use case.
-   * Ensure the test cases are using parameterized tests where that might reduce
-     the number of duplicated lines significantly.
-   * NEVER use fixed waits (e.g. 'await delay(100)'). Always use 'waitFor' with
-     a predicate to ensure tests are stable and fast.
-   * Ensure mocks are properly managed:
-     * Critical dependencies (fs, os, child_process) should only be mocked at
-       the top of the file. Ideally avoid mocking these dependencies altogether.
-     * Check to see if there are existing mocks or fakes that can be used rather
-       than creating new ones for the new tests added.
-     * Try to avoid mocking the file system whenever possible. If using the real
-       file system is difficult consider whether the test should be an
-       integration test rather than a unit test.
-     * `vi.restoreAllMocks()` should be called in `afterEach` to prevent test
-       pollution.
-     * Use `vi.useFakeTimers()` for tests involving time-based logic to avoid
-       flakiness.
-     * Avoid using `any` in tests; prefer proper types or `unknown` with
-       narrowing.
-     * When creating parameterized tests, give the parameters types to ensure
-       that the tests are type-safe.
-8. Evaluate all react logic carefully keeping in mind that the author of the
-    changes is not likely an expert on React. Key areas to audit carefully are:
-    * Whether `setState` calls trigger side effects from within the body of the
-      `setState` callback. If so, you *must* propose an alternate design using
-      reducers or other ways the code might be modified to not have to modify
-      state from within a `setState`. Make sure to comment about absolutely
-      every case like this as these cases have introduced multiple bugs in the
-      past. Typically these cases should be resolved using a reducer although
-      occassionally other techniques such as useRef are appropriate. Consider
-      suggesting that jacob314@ be tagged on the code review if the solution is
-      not 100% obvious.
-    * Whether code might introduce an infinite rendering loop in React.
-    * Whether keyboard handling is robust. Keyboard handling must go through
-      `useKeyPress.ts` from the Gemini CLI package rather than using the
-      standard ink library used by most keyboard handling. Unlike the standard
-      ink library, the keyboard handling library in Gemini CLI may report
-      multiple keyboard events one after another in the same React frame. This
-      is needed to support slow terminals but introduces complexity in all our
-      code that handles keyboard events. Handling this correctly often means
-      that reducers must be used or other mechanisms to ensure that multiple
-      state updates one after another are handled gracefully rather than
-      overriding values from the first update with the second update. Refer to
-      text-buffer.ts as a canonical example of using a reducer for this sort of
-      case.
-    * Ensure code does not use `console.log`, `console.warn`, or `console.error`
-      as these indicate debug logging that was accidentally left in the code.
-    * Avoid synchronous file I/O in React components as it will hang the UI.
-    * Ensure state initialization is explicit (e.g., use 'undefined' rather than
-      'true' as a default if the state is truly unknown initially).
-    * Carefully manage 'useEffect' dependencies. Prefer to use a reducer
-      whenever practical to resolve the issues. If that is not practical it is
-      ok to use 'useRef' to access the latest value of a prop or state inside an
-      effect without adding it to the dependency array if re-running the effect
-      is undesirable (common in event listeners).
-    * NEVER disable 'react-hooks/exhaustive-deps'. Fix the code to correctly
-      declare dependencies. Disabling this lint rule will almost always lead to
-      hard to detect bugs.
-    * Avoid making types nullable unless strictly necessary, as it hurts
-      readability.
-    * Do not introduce excessive property drilling. There are multiple providers
-      that can be leveraged to avoid property drilling. Make sure one of them
-      cannot be used. Do suggest a provider that might make sense to be extended
-      to include the new property or propose a new provider to add if the
-      property drilling is excessive. Only use providers for properties that are
-      consistent for the entire application.
-9. General Gemini CLI design principles:
-    * Make sure that settings are only used for options that a user might
-      consider changing.
-    * Do not add new command line arguments and suggest settings instead.
-    * New settings must be added to packages/cli/src/config/settingsSchema.ts.
-    * If a setting has 'showInDialog: true', it MUST be documented in
-      docs/get-started/configuration.md.
-    * Ensure 'requiresRestart' is correctly set for new settings.
-    * Use 'debugLogger' for rethrown errors to avoid duplicate logging.
-    * All new keyboard shortcuts MUST be documented in
-      docs/cli/keyboard-shortcuts.md.
-    * Ensure new keyboard shortcuts are defined in
-      packages/cli/src/config/keyBindings.ts.
-    * If new keyboard shortcuts are added, remind the user to test them in
-      VSCode, iTerm2, Ghostty, and Windows to ensure they work for all
-      users.
-    * Be careful of keybindings that require the meta key as only certain
-      meta key shortcuts are supported on Mac.
-    * Be skeptical of function keys and keyboard shortcuts that are commonly
-      bound in VSCode as they may conflict.
-10. TypeScript Best Practices:
-    * Use 'checkExhaustive' in the 'default' clause of 'switch' statements to
-      ensure all cases are handled.
-    * Avoid using the non-null assertion operator ('!') unless absolutely
-      necessary and you are confident the value is not null.

 8. Consider ways the code may not be consistent with existing code in the repo.
    In particular it is critical that the react code uses patterns consistent
    with existing code in the repo.
-9. Evaluate all tests on the PR and make sure that they are doing the following:
-   * Using `waitFor` from @{packages/cli/src/test-utils/async.ts} rather than
-     using `vi.waitFor` for all `waitFor` calls within `packages/cli`. Even if
-     tests pass, using the wrong `waitFor` could result in flaky tests as `act`
-     warnings could show up if timing is slightly different.
-   * Using `act` to wrap all blocks in tests that change component state.
-   * Using `toMatchSnapshot` to verify that rendering works as expected rather
-     than matching against the raw content of the output.
-   * If snapshots were changed as part of the pull request, review the snapshots
-     changes to ensure they are intentional and comment if any look at all
-     suspicious. Too many snapshot changes that indicate bugs have been approved
-     in the past.
-   * Use `render` or `renderWithProviders` from
-     @{packages/cli/src/test-utils/render.tsx} rather than using `render` from
-     `ink-testing-library` directly. This is needed to ensure that we do not get
-     warnings about spurious `act` calls. If test cases specify providers
-     directly, consider whether the existing `renderWithProviders` should be
-     modified to support that use case.
-   * Ensure the test cases are using parameterized tests where that might reduce
-     the number of duplicated lines significantly.
-   * NEVER use fixed waits (e.g. 'await delay(100)'). Always use 'waitFor' with
-     a predicate to ensure tests are stable and fast.
-   * Ensure mocks are properly managed:
-     * Critical dependencies (fs, os, child_process) should only be mocked at
-       the top of the file. Ideally avoid mocking these dependencies altogether.
-     * Check to see if there are existing mocks or fakes that can be used rather
-       than creating new ones for the new tests added.
-     * Try to avoid mocking the file system whenever possible. If using the real
-       file system is difficult consider whether the test should be an
-       integration test rather than a unit test.
-     * `vi.restoreAllMocks()` should be called in `afterEach` to prevent test
-       pollution.
-     * Use `vi.useFakeTimers()` for tests involving time-based logic to avoid
-       flakiness.
-     * Avoid using `any` in tests; prefer proper types or `unknown` with
-       narrowing.
-     * When creating parameterized tests, give the parameters types to ensure
-       that the tests are type-safe.
-10. Evaluate all react logic carefully keeping in mind that the author of the PR
-    is not likely an expert on React. Key areas to audit carefully are:
-    * Whether `setState` calls trigger side effects from within the body of the
-      `setState` callback. If so, you *must* propose an alternate design using
-      reducers or other ways the code might be modified to not have to modify
-      state from within a `setState`. Make sure to comment about absolutely
-      every case like this as these cases have introduced multiple bugs in the
-      past. Typically these cases should be resolved using a reducer although
-      occassionally other techniques such as useRef are appropriate. Consider
-      suggesting that jacob314@ be tagged on the code review if the solution is
-      not 100% obvious.
-    * Whether code might introduce an infinite rendering loop in React.
-    * Whether keyboard handling is robust. Keyboard handling must go through
-      `useKeyPress.ts` from the Gemini CLI package rather than using the
-      standard ink library used by most keyboard handling. Unlike the standard
-      ink library, the keyboard handling library in Gemini CLI may report
-      multiple keyboard events one after another in the same React frame. This
-      is needed to support slow terminals but introduces complexity in all our
-      code that handles keyboard events. Handling this correctly often means
-      that reducers must be used or other mechanisms to ensure that multiple
-      state updates one after another are handled gracefully rather than
-      overriding values from the first update with the second update. Refer to
-      text-buffer.ts as a canonical example of using a reducer for this sort of
-      case.
-    * Ensure code does not use `console.log`, `console.warn`, or `console.error`
-      as these indicate debug logging that was accidentally left in the code.
-    * Avoid synchronous file I/O in React components as it will hang the UI.
-    * Ensure state initialization is explicit (e.g., use 'undefined' rather than
-      'true' as a default if the state is truly unknown initially).
-    * Carefully manage 'useEffect' dependencies. Prefer to use a reducer
-      whenever practical to resolve the issues. If that is not practical it is
-      ok to use 'useRef' to access the latest value of a prop or state inside an
-      effect without adding it to the dependency array if re-running the effect
-      is undesirable (common in event listeners).
-    * NEVER disable 'react-hooks/exhaustive-deps'. Fix the code to correctly
-      declare dependencies. Disabling this lint rule will almost always lead to
-      hard to detect bugs.
-    * Avoid making types nullable unless strictly necessary, as it hurts
-      readability.
-    * Do not introduce excessive property drilling. There are multiple providers
-      that can be leveraged to avoid property drilling. Make sure one of them
-      cannot be used. Do suggest a provider that might make sense to be extended
-      to include the new property or propose a new provider to add if the
-      property drilling is excessive. Only use providers for properties that are
-      consistent for the entire application.
-11. General Gemini CLI design principles:
-    * Make sure that settings are only used for options that a user might
-      consider changing.
-    * Do not add new command line arguments and suggest settings instead.
-    * New settings must be added to packages/cli/src/config/settingsSchema.ts.
-    * If a setting has 'showInDialog: true', it MUST be documented in
-      docs/get-started/configuration.md.
-    * Ensure 'requiresRestart' is correctly set for new settings.
-    * Use 'debugLogger' for rethrown errors to avoid duplicate logging.
-    * All new keyboard shortcuts MUST be documented in
-      docs/cli/keyboard-shortcuts.md.
-    * Ensure new keyboard shortcuts are defined in
-      packages/cli/src/config/keyBindings.ts.
-    * If new keyboard shortcuts are added, remind the user to test them in
-      VSCode, iTerm2, Ghostty, and Windows to ensure they work for all
-      users.
-    * Be careful of keybindings that require the meta key as only certain
-      meta key shortcuts are supported on Mac.
-    * Be skeptical of function keys and keyboard shortcuts that are commonly
-      bound in VSCode as they may conflict.
-12. TypeScript Best Practices:
-    * Use 'checkExhaustive' in the 'default' clause of 'switch' statements to
-      ensure all cases are handled.
-    * Avoid using the non-null assertion operator ('!') unless absolutely
-      necessary and you are confident the value is not null.

+# Gemini CLI Strict Development Rules
+
+These rules apply strictly to all code modifications and additions within the
+Gemini CLI project.
+
+## Testing Guidelines
+
+- **Async/Await**: Always use `waitFor` from
+  `packages/cli/src/test-utils/async.ts` instead of `vi.waitFor` for all
+  `waitFor` calls within `packages/cli`. NEVER use fixed waits (e.g.,
+  `await delay(100)`). Always use `waitFor` with a predicate to ensure tests are
+  stable and fast. Using the wrong `waitFor` can result in flaky tests and `act`
+  warnings.
+- **React Testing**: Use `act` to wrap all blocks in tests that change component
+  state. Use `render` or `renderWithProviders` from
+  `packages/cli/src/test-utils/render.tsx` instead of `render` from
+  `ink-testing-library` directly. This prevents spurious `act` warnings. If test
+  cases specify providers directly, consider whether the existing
+  `renderWithProviders` should be modified.
+- **Snapshots**: Use `toMatchSnapshot` to verify that rendering works as
+  expected rather than matching against the raw content of the output. When
+  modifying snapshots, verify the changes are intentional and do not hide
+  underlying bugs.
+- **Parameterized Tests**: Use parameterized tests where it reduces duplicated
+  lines. Give the parameters explicit types to ensure the tests are type-safe.
+- **Mocks Management**:
+  - Mock critical dependencies (`fs`, `os`, `child_process`) ONLY at the top of
+    the file. Ideally, avoid mocking these dependencies altogether.
+  - Reuse existing mocks and fakes rather than creating new ones.
+  - Avoid mocking the file system whenever possible. If using the real file
+    system is too difficult, consider writing an integration test instead.
+  - Always call `vi.restoreAllMocks()` in `afterEach` to prevent test pollution.
+  - Use `vi.useFakeTimers()` for tests involving time-based logic to avoid
+    flakiness.
+- **Typing in Tests**: Avoid using `any` in tests; prefer proper types or
+  `unknown` with narrowing.
+
+## React Guidelines (`packages/cli`)
+
+- **`setState` and Side Effects**: NEVER trigger side effects from within the
+  body of a `setState` callback. Use a reducer or `useRef` if necessary. These
+  cases have historically introduced multiple bugs; typically, they should be
+  resolved using a reducer.
+- **Rendering**: Do not introduce infinite rendering loops. Avoid synchronous
+  file I/O in React components as it will hang the UI. Do not implement new
+  logic for custom string measurement or string truncation. Use Ink layout
+  instead, leveraging `ResizeObserver` as needed.
+- **Keyboard Handling**: Keyboard handling MUST go through `useKeyPress.ts` from
+  the Gemini CLI package rather than the standard ink library. This library
+  supports reporting multiple keyboard events sequentially in the same React
+  frame (critical for slow terminals). Handling this correctly often requires
+  reducers to ensure multiple state updates are handled gracefully without
+  overriding values. Refer to `text-buffer.ts` for a canonical example.
+- **Logging**: Do not leave `console.log`, `console.warn`, or `console.error` in
+  the code.
+- **State & Effects**: Ensure state initialization is explicit (e.g., use
+  `undefined` rather than `true` as a default if the state is truly unknown).
+  Carefully manage `useEffect` dependencies. Prefer a reducer whenever
+  practical. NEVER disable `react-hooks/exhaustive-deps`; fix the code to
+  correctly declare dependencies instead.
+- **Context & Props**: Avoid excessive property drilling. Leverage existing
+  providers, extend them, or propose a new one if necessary. Only use providers
+  for properties that are consistent across the entire application.
+- **Code Structure**: Avoid complex `if` statements where `switch` statements
+  could be used. Keep `AppContainer` minimal; refactor complex logic into React
+  hooks. Evaluate whether business logic should be added to `hookSystem.ts` or
+  integrated into `packages/core` rather than `packages/cli`.
+
+## Core Guidelines (`packages/core`)
+
+- **Services**: Implement services as classes with clear lifecycle management
+  (e.g., `initialize()` methods). Services should be stateless where possible,
+  or use the centralized `Storage` service for persistence.
+- **Cross-Service Communication**: Prefer using the `coreEvents` bus (from
+  `packages/core/src/utils/events.ts`) for asynchronous communication between
+  services or to notify the UI of state changes. Avoid tight coupling between
+  services.
+- **Utilities**: Use `debugLogger` from `packages/core/src/utils/debugLogger.ts`
+  for internal logging instead of `console`. Ensure all shell operations use
+  `spawnAsync` from `packages/core/src/utils/shell-utils.ts` for consistent
+  error handling and promise management. Handle filesystem errors gracefully
+  using `isNodeError` from `packages/core/src/utils/errors.ts`.
+- **Exports & Tooling**: Add new tools to `packages/core/src/tools/` and
+  register them in `packages/core/src/tools/tool-registry.ts`. Export all new
+  public services, utilities, and types from `packages/core/src/index.ts`.
+
+## Architectural Audit (Package Boundaries)
+
+- **Logic Placement**: Non-UI logic (e.g., model orchestration, tool
+  implementation, git/filesystem operations) MUST reside in `packages/core`.
+  `packages/cli` should ONLY contain UI/Ink components, command-line argument
+  parsing, and user interaction logic.
+- **Environment Isolation**: Core logic must not assume a TUI environment. Use
+  the `ConfirmationBus` or `Output` abstractions for communicating with the user
+  from Core.
+- **Decoupling**: Actively look for opportunities to decouple services using
+  `coreEvents`. If a service imports another just to notify it of a change, use
+  an event instead.
+
+## General Gemini CLI Design Principles
+
+- **Settings**: Use settings for user-configurable options rather than adding
+  new command line arguments. Add new settings to
+  `packages/cli/src/config/settingsSchema.ts`. If a setting has
+  `showInDialog: true`, it MUST be documented in
+  `docs/get-started/configuration.md`. Ensure `requiresRestart` is correctly
+  set.
+- **Logging**: Use `debugLogger` for rethrown errors to avoid duplicate logging.
+- **Keyboard Shortcuts**: Define all new keyboard shortcuts in
+  `packages/cli/src/config/keyBindings.ts` and document them in
+  `docs/cli/keyboard-shortcuts.md`. Be careful of keybindings that require the
+  `Meta` key, as only certain meta key shortcuts are supported on Mac. Avoid
+  function keys and shortcuts commonly bound in VSCode.
+
+## TypeScript Best Practices
+
+- Use `checkExhaustive` in the `default` clause of `switch` statements to ensure
+  all cases are handled.
+- Avoid using the non-null assertion operator (`!`) unless absolutely necessary.
+- **STRICT TYPING**: Strictly forbid `any` and `unknown` in both CLI and Core
+  packages. `unknown` is only allowed if it is immediately narrowed using type
+  guards or Zod validation.
+- NEVER disable `@typescript-eslint/no-floating-promises`.
+- Avoid making types nullable unless strictly necessary, as it hurts
+  readability.
+
+## TUI Best Practices
+
+- **Terminal Compatibility**: Consider how changes might behave differently
+  across terminals (e.g., VSCode terminal, SSH, Kitty, default Mac terminal,
+  iTerm2, Windows terminal). If modifying keyboard handling, integrate deeply
+  with existing files like `KeypressContext.tsx` and
+  `terminalCapabilityManager.ts`.
+- **iTerm**: Be aware that `ITERM_SESSION_ID` may be present when users run
+  VSCode from within iTerm, even if the terminal is not iTerm.
+
+## Code Cleanup
+
+- **Refactoring**: Actively clean up code duplication, technical debt, and
+  boilerplate ("AI Slop") when working in the codebase.
+- **Prompts**: Be aware that changes can impact the prompts sent to Gemini CLI
+  and affect overall quality.

+
+# Procedure: Updating Changelog for New Releases
+
+## Objective
+
+To standardize the process of updating changelog files (`latest.md`,
+`preview.md`, `index.md`) based on automated release information.
+
+## Inputs
+
+- **version**: The release version string (e.g., `v0.28.0`,
+  `v0.29.0-preview.2`).
+- **TIME**: The release timestamp (e.g., `2026-02-12T20:33:15Z`).
+- **BODY**: The raw markdown release notes, containing a "What's Changed"
+  section and a "Full Changelog" link.
+
+## Guidelines for `latest.md` and `preview.md` Highlights
+
+- Aim for **3-5 key highlight points**.
+- Each highlight point must start with a bold-typed title that summarizes the
+  change (e.g., `**New Feature:** A brief description...`).
+- **Prioritize** summarizing new features over other changes like bug fixes or
+  chores.
+- **Avoid** mentioning features that are "experimental" or "in preview" in
+  Stable Releases.
+- **DO NOT** include PR numbers, links, or author names in these highlights.
+- Refer to `.gemini/skills/docs-changelog/references/highlights_examples.md`
+  for the correct style and tone.
+
+## Initial Processing
+
+1.  **Analyze Version**: Determine the release path based on the `version`
+    string.
+    - If `version` contains "nightly", **STOP**. No changes are made.
+    - If `version` ends in `.0`, follow the **Path A: New Minor Version**
+      procedure.
+    - If `version` does not end in `.0`, follow the **Path B: Patch Version**
+      procedure.
+2.  **Process Time**: Convert the `TIME` input into two formats for later use:
+    `yyyy-mm-dd` and `Month dd, yyyy`.
+3.  **Process Body**:
+    - Save the incoming `BODY` content to a temporary file for processing.
+    - In the "What's Changed" section of the temporary file, reformat all pull
+      request URLs to be markdown links with the PR number as the text (e.g.,
+      `[#12345](URL)`).
+    - If a "New Contributors" section exists, delete it.
+    - Preserve the "**Full Changelog**" link. The processed content of this
+      temporary file will be used in subsequent steps.
+
+---
+
+## Path A: New Minor Version
+
+*Use this path if the version number ends in `.0`.*
+
+**Important:** Based on the version, you must choose to follow either section
+A.1 for stable releases or A.2 for preview releases. Do not follow the
+instructions for the other section.
+
+### A.1: Stable Release (e.g., `v0.28.0`)
+
+For a stable release, you will generate two distinct summaries from the
+changelog: a concise **announcement** for the main changelog page, and a more
+detailed **highlights** section for the release-specific page.
+
+1.  **Create the Announcement for `index.md`**:
+    -   Generate a concise announcement summarizing the most important changes.
+        Each announcement entry must start with a bold-typed title that
+        summarizes the change.
+    -   **Important**: The format for this announcement is unique. You **must**
+        use the existing announcements in `docs/changelogs/index.md` and the
+        example within
+        `.gemini/skills/docs-changelog/references/index_template.md` as your
+        guide. This format includes PR links and authors. Stick to 1 or 2 PR
+        links and authors.
+    -   Add this new announcement to the top of `docs/changelogs/index.md`.
+
+2.  **Create Highlights and Update `latest.md`**:
+    -   Generate a comprehensive "Highlights" section, following the guidelines
+        in the "Guidelines for `latest.md` and `preview.md` Highlights" section
+        above.
+    -   Take the content from
+        `.gemini/skills/docs-changelog/references/latest_template.md`.
+    -   Populate the template with the `version`, `release_date`, generated
+        `highlights`, and the processed content from the temporary file.
+    -   **Completely replace** the contents of `docs/changelogs/latest.md` with
+        the populated template.
+
+### A.2: Preview Release (e.g., `v0.29.0-preview.0`)
+
+1.  **Update `preview.md`**:
+    -   Generate a comprehensive "Highlights" section, following the highlight
+        guidelines.
+    -   Take the content from
+        `.gemini/skills/docs-changelog/references/preview_template.md`.
+    -   Populate the template with the `version`, `release_date`, generated
+        `highlights`, and the processed content from the temporary file.
+    -   **Completely replace** the contents of `docs/changelogs/preview.md`
+        with the populated template.
+
+---
+
+## Path B: Patch Version
+
+*Use this path if the version number does **not** end in `.0`.*
+
+**Important:** Based on the version, you must choose to follow either section
+B.1 for stable patches or B.2 for preview patches. Do not follow the
+instructions for the other section.
+
+### B.1: Stable Patch (e.g., `v0.28.1`)
+
+- **Target File**: `docs/changelogs/latest.md`
+- Perform the following edits on the target file:
+    1.  Update the version in the main header. The line should read,
+        `# Latest stable release: {{version}}`
+    2.  Update the rease date. The line should read,
+        `Released: {{release_date_month_dd_yyyy}}`
+    3.  Determine if a "What's Changed" section exists in the temporary file
+        If so, continue to step 4. Otherwise, skip to step 5.
+    4.  **Prepend** the processed "What's Changed" list from the temporary file
+        to the existing "What's Changed" list in `latest.md`. Do not change or
+        replace the existing list, **only add** to the beginning of it.
+    5.  In the "Full Changelog", edit **only** the end of the URL. Identify the
+        last part of the URL that looks like `...{previous_version}` and update
+        it to be `...{version}`.
+
+        Example: assume the patch version is `v0.29.1`. Change
+        `Full Changelog: https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/compare/v0.28.2…v0.29.0`
+        to
+        `Full Changelog: https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/compare/v0.28.2…v0.29.1`
+
+### B.2: Preview Patch (e.g., `v0.29.0-preview.3`)
+
+- **Target File**: `docs/changelogs/preview.md`
+- Perform the following edits on the target file:
+    1.  Update the version in the main header. The line should read,
+        `# Preview release: {{version}}`
+    2.  Update the rease date. The line should read,
+        `Released: {{release_date_month_dd_yyyy}}`
+    3.  Determine if a "What's Changed" section exists in the temporary file
+        If so, continue to step 4. Otherwise, skip to step 5.
+    4.  **Prepend** the processed "What's Changed" list from the temporary file
+        to the existing "What's Changed" list in `preview.md`. Do not change or
+        replace the existing list, **only add** to the beginning of it.
+    5.  In the "Full Changelog", edit **only** the end of the URL. Identify the
+        last part of the URL that looks like `...{previous_version}` and update
+        it to be `...{version}`.
+
+        Example: assume the patch version is `v0.29.0-preview.1`. Change
+        `Full Changelog: https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/compare/v0.28.2…v0.29.0-preview.0`
+        to
+        `Full Changelog: https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/compare/v0.28.2…v0.29.0-preview.1`
+

 # `docs-writer` skill instructions
 
-As an expert technical writer and editor for the Gemini CLI project, your goal
-is to produce and refine documentation that is accurate, clear, consistent, and
-easy for users to understand. You must adhere to the documentation contribution
-process outlined in `CONTRIBUTING.md`.
+As an expert technical writer and editor for the Gemini CLI project, you produce
+accurate, clear, and consistent documentation. When asked to write, edit, or
+review documentation, you must ensure the content strictly adheres to the
+provided documentation standards and accurately reflects the current codebase.
+Adhere to the contribution process in `CONTRIBUTING.md` and the following
+project standards.
 
-## Step 1: Understand the goal and create a plan
+## Phase 1: Documentation standards
 
-1.  **Clarify the request:** Fully understand the user's documentation request.
-    Identify the core feature, command, or concept that needs work.
-2.  **Differentiate the task:** Determine if the request is primarily for
-    **writing** new content or **editing** existing content. If the request is
-    ambiguous (e.g., "fix the docs"), ask the user for clarification.
-3.  **Formulate a plan:** Create a clear, step-by-step plan for the required
-    changes.
+Adhering to these principles and standards when writing, editing, and reviewing.
 
-## Step 2: Investigate and gather information
+### Voice and tone
+Adopt a tone that balances professionalism with a helpful, conversational
+approach.
 
-1.  **Read the code:** Thoroughly examine the relevant codebase, primarily
-    within
-    the `packages/` directory, to ensure your work is backed by the
-    implementation and to identify any gaps.
-2.  **Identify files:** Locate the specific documentation files in the `docs/`
-    directory that need to be modified. Always read the latest version of a file
-    before you begin work.
-3.  **Check for connections:** Consider related documentation. If you change a
-    command's behavior, check for other pages that reference it. If you add a new
-    page, check if `docs/sidebar.json` needs to be updated. Make sure all
-    links are up to date.
+- **Perspective and tense:** Address the reader as "you." Use active voice and
+  present tense (e.g., "The API returns...").
+- **Tone:** Professional, friendly, and direct. 
+- **Clarity:** Use simple vocabulary. Avoid jargon, slang, and marketing hype.
+- **Global Audience:** Write in standard US English. Avoid idioms and cultural
+  references.
+- **Requirements:** Be clear about requirements ("must") vs. recommendations
+  ("we recommend"). Avoid "should."
+- **Word Choice:** Avoid "please" and anthropomorphism (e.g., "the server
+  thinks"). Use contractions (don't, it's).
 
-## Step 3: Write or edit the documentation
+### Language and grammar
+Write precisely to ensure your instructions are unambiguous.
 
-1.  **Follow the style guide:** Adhere to the rules in
-    `references/style-guide.md`. Read this file to understand the project's
-    documentation standards.
-2.   Ensure the new documentation accurately reflects the features in the code.
-3.  **Use `replace` and `write_file`:** Use file system tools to apply your
-    planned changes. For small edits, `replace` is preferred. For new files or
-    large rewrites, `write_file` is more appropriate.
+- **Abbreviations:** Avoid Latin abbreviations; use "for example" (not "e.g.")
+  and "that is" (not "i.e.").
+- **Punctuation:** Use the serial comma. Place periods and commas inside
+  quotation marks.
+- **Dates:** Use unambiguous formats (e.g., "January 22, 2026").
+- **Conciseness:** Use "lets you" instead of "allows you to." Use precise,
+  specific verbs.
+- **Examples:** Use meaningful names in examples; avoid placeholders like
+  "foo" or "bar."
+
+### Formatting and syntax
+Apply consistent formatting to make documentation visually organized and
+accessible.
+
+- **Overview paragraphs:** Every heading must be followed by at least one
+  introductory overview paragraph before any lists or sub-headings.
+- **Text wrap:** Wrap text at 80 characters (except long links or tables).
+- **Casing:** Use sentence case for headings, titles, and bolded text.
+- **Naming:** Always refer to the project as `Gemini CLI` (never
+  `the Gemini CLI`).
+- **Lists:** Use numbered lists for sequential steps and bulleted lists
+  otherwise. Keep list items parallel in structure.
+- **UI and code:** Use **bold** for UI elements and `code font` for filenames,
+  snippets, commands, and API elements. Focus on the task when discussing
+  interaction.
+- **Links:** Use descriptive anchor text; avoid "click here." Ensure the link
+  makes sense out of context.
+- **Accessibility:** Use semantic HTML elements correctly (headings, lists, 
+  tables).
+- **Media:** Use lowercase hyphenated filenames. Provide descriptive alt text
+  for all images.
+
+### Structure
+- **BLUF:** Start with an introduction explaining what to expect.
+- **Experimental features:** If a feature is clearly noted as experimental,
+add the following note immediately after the introductory paragraph:
+  `> **Note:** This is a preview feature currently under active development.`
+- **Headings:** Use hierarchical headings to support the user journey.
+- **Procedures:** 
+  - Introduce lists of steps with a complete sentence.
+  - Start each step with an imperative verb.
+  - Number sequential steps; use bullets for non-sequential lists.
+  - Put conditions before instructions (e.g., "On the Settings page, click...").
+  - Provide clear context for where the action takes place.
+  - Indicate optional steps clearly (e.g., "Optional: ...").
+- **Elements:** Use bullet lists, tables, notes (`> **Note:**`), and warnings 
+  (`> **Warning:**`).
+- **Avoid using a table of contents:** If a table of contents is present, remove
+  it.
+- **Next steps:** Conclude with a "Next steps" section if applicable.
+
+## Phase 2: Preparation
+Before modifying any documentation, thoroughly investigate the request and the
+surrounding context. 
+
+1.  **Clarify:** Understand the core request. Differentiate between writing new
+    content and editing existing content. If the request is ambiguous (e.g.,
+    "fix the docs"), ask for clarification.
+2.  **Investigate:** Examine relevant code (primarily in `packages/`) for
+    accuracy.
+3.  **Audit:** Read the latest versions of relevant files in `docs/`.
+4.  **Connect:** Identify all referencing pages if changing behavior. Check if
+    `docs/sidebar.json` needs updates.
+5.  **Plan:** Create a step-by-step plan before making changes.
+
+## Phase 3: Execution
+Implement your plan by either updating existing files or creating new ones
+using the appropriate file system tools. Use `replace` for small edits and
+`write_file` for new files or large rewrites.
+
+### Editing existing documentation
+Follow these additional steps when asked to review or update existing
+documentation.
+
+- **Gaps:** Identify areas where the documentation is incomplete or no longer
+  reflects existing code.
+- **Structure:** Apply "Structure (New Docs)" rules (BLUF, headings, etc.) when 
+  adding new sections to existing pages.
+- **Tone:** Ensure the tone is active and engaging. Use "you" and contractions.
+- **Clarity:** Correct awkward wording, spelling, and grammar. Rephrase
+  sentences to make them easier for users to understand.
+- **Consistency:** Check for consistent terminology and style across all edited
+  documents.
 
 
+## Phase 4: Verification and finalization
+Perform a final quality check to ensure that all changes are correctly formatted
+and that all links are functional.
 
-### Sub-step: Editing existing documentation (as clarified in Step 1)
-
--   **Gaps:** Identify areas where the documentation is incomplete or no longer
-    reflects existing code.
--   **Tone:** Ensure the tone is active and engaging, not passive.
--   **Clarity:** Correct awkward wording, spelling, and grammar. Rephrase
-    sentences to make them easier for users to understand.
--   **Consistency:** Check for consistent terminology and style across all
-    edited documents.
-
-## Step 4: Verify and finalize
-
-1.  **Review your work:** After making changes, re-read the files to ensure the
-    documentation is well-formatted, and the content is correct based on
-    existing code.
-2.  **Link verification:** Verify the validity of all links in the new content.
-    Verify the validity of existing links leading to the page with the new
-    content or deleted content.
-2.  **Offer to run npm format:** Once all changes are complete, offer to run the
-    project's formatting script to ensure consistency by proposing the command:
-    `npm run format`
+1.  **Accuracy:** Ensure content accurately reflects the implementation and
+  technical behavior.
+2.  **Self-review:** Re-read changes for formatting, correctness, and flow.
+3.  **Link check:** Verify all new and existing links leading to or from modified
+    pages.
+4.  **Format:** Once all changes are complete, ask to execute `npm run format`
+    to ensure consistent formatting across the project. If the user confirms,
+    execute the command.

-# Documentation style guide
-
-## I. Core principles
-
-1.  **Clarity:** Write for easy understanding. Prioritize clear, direct, and
-    simple language.
-2.  **Consistency:** Use consistent terminology, formatting, and style
-    throughout the documentation.
-3.  **Accuracy:** Ensure all information is technically correct and up-to-date.
-4.  **Accessibility:** Design documentation to be usable by everyone. Focus on
-    semantic structure, clear link text, and image alternatives.
-5.  **Global audience:** Write in standard US English. Avoid slang, idioms, and
-    cultural references.
-6.  **Prescriptive:** Guide the reader by recommending specific actions and
-    paths, especially for complex tasks.
-
-## II. Voice and tone
-
-- **Professional yet friendly:** Maintain a helpful, knowledgeable, and
-  conversational tone without being frivolous.
-- **Direct:** Get straight to the point. Keep paragraphs short and focused.
-- **Second person:** Address the reader as "you."
-- **Present tense:** Use the present tense to describe functionality (e.g., "The
-  API returns a JSON object.").
-- **Avoid:** Jargon, slang, marketing hype, and overly casual language.
-
-## III. Language and grammar
-
-- **Active voice:** Prefer active voice over passive voice.
-  - _Example:_ "The system sends a notification." (Not: "A notification is sent
-    by the system.")
-- **Contractions:** Use common contractions (e.g., "don't," "it's") to maintain
-  a natural tone.
-- **Simple vocabulary:** Use common words. Define technical terms when
-  necessary.
-- **Conciseness:** Keep sentences short and focused, but don't omit helpful
-  information.
-- **"Please":** Avoid using the word "please."
-
-## IV. Procedures and steps
-
-- Start each step with an imperative verb (e.g., "Connect to the database").
-- Number steps sequentially.
-- Introduce lists of steps with a complete sentence.
-- Put conditions before instructions, not after.
-- Provide clear context for where the action takes place (e.g., "In the
-  administration console...").
-- Indicate optional steps clearly (e.g., "Optional: ...").
-
-## V. Formatting and punctuation
-
-- **Text wrap:** Wrap all text at 80 characters, with exceptions for long links
-  or tables.
-- **Headings, titles, and bold text:** Use sentence case. Structure headings
-  hierarchically.
-- **Lists:** Use numbered lists for sequential steps and bulleted lists for all
-  other lists. Keep list items parallel in structure.
-- **Serial comma:** Use the serial comma (e.g., "one, two, and three").
-- **Punctuation:** Use standard American punctuation. Place periods inside
-  quotation marks.
-- **Dates:** Use unambiguous date formatting (e.g., "January 22, 2026").
-
-## VI. UI, code, and links
-
-- **UI elements:** Put UI elements in **bold**. Focus on the task when
-  discussing interaction.
-- **Code:** Use `code font` for filenames, code snippets, commands, and API
-  elements. Use code blocks for multi-line samples.
-- **Links:** Use descriptive link text that indicates what the link leads to.
-  Avoid "click here."
-
-## VII. Word choice and terminology
-
-- **Consistent naming:** Use product and feature names consistently. Always
-  refer to Gemini CLI as `Gemini CLI`, never `the Gemini CLI`.
-- **Specific verbs:** Use precise verbs.
-- **Avoid:**
-  - Latin abbreviations (e.g., use "for example" instead of "e.g.").
-  - Placeholder names like "foo" and "bar" in examples; use meaningful names
-    instead.
-  - Anthropomorphism (e.g., "The server thinks...").
-  - "Should": Be clear about requirements ("must") vs. recommendations ("we
-    recommend").
-
-## VIII. Files and media
-
-- **Filenames:** Use lowercase letters, separate words with hyphens (-), and use
-  standard ASCII characters.
-- **Images:** Provide descriptive alt text for all images. Provide
-  high-resolution or vector images when practical.
-
-## IX. Accessibility quick check
-
-- Provide descriptive alt text for images.
-- Ensure link text makes sense out of context.
-- Use semantic HTML elements correctly (headings, lists, tables).

+  Use this skill when asked to create a GitHub issue. It handles different issue

+---
+
+# GitHub Issue Creator
+
+This skill guides the creation of high-quality GitHub issues that adhere to the
+repository's standards and use the appropriate templates.
+
+## Workflow
+
+Follow these steps to create a GitHub issue:
+
+1.  **Identify Issue Type**: Determine if the request is a bug report, feature
+    request, or other category.
+
+2.  **Locate Template**: Search for issue templates in
+    `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/`.
+    - `bug_report.yml`
+    - `feature_request.yml`
+    - `website_issue.yml`
+    - If no relevant YAML template is found, look for `.md` templates in the same
+      directory.
+
+3.  **Read Template**: Read the content of the identified template file to
+    understand the required fields.
+
+4.  **Draft Content**: Draft the issue title and body/fields.
+    - If using a YAML template (form), prepare values for each `id` defined in
+      the template.
+    - If using a Markdown template, follow its structure exactly.
+    - **Default Label**: Always include the `🔒 maintainer only` label unless the
+      user explicitly requests otherwise.
+
+5.  **Create Issue**: Use the `gh` CLI to create the issue.
+    - **CRITICAL:** To avoid shell escaping and formatting issues with
+      multi-line Markdown or complex text, ALWAYS write the description/body to
+      a temporary file first.
+
+    **For Markdown Templates or Simple Body:**
+    ```bash
+    # 1. Write the drafted content to a temporary file
+    # 2. Create the issue using the --body-file flag
+    gh issue create --title "Succinct title" --body-file <temp_file_path> --label "🔒 maintainer only"
+    # 3. Remove the temporary file
+    rm <temp_file_path>
+    ```
+
+    **For YAML Templates (Forms):**
+    While `gh issue create` supports `--body-file`, YAML forms usually expect
+    key-value pairs via flags if you want to bypass the interactive prompt.
+    However, the most reliable non-interactive way to ensure formatting is
+    preserved for long text fields is to use the `--body` or `--body-file` if the
+    form has been converted to a standard body, OR to use the `--field` flags
+    for YAML forms.
+
+    *Note: For the `gemini-cli` repository which uses YAML forms, you can often
+    submit the content as a single body if a specific field-based submission is
+    not required by the automation.*
+
+6.  **Verify**: Confirm the issue was created successfully and provide the link
+    to the user.
+
+## Principles
+
+- **Clarity**: Titles should be descriptive and follow project conventions.
+- **Defensive Formatting**: Always use temporary files with `--body-file` to
+  prevent newline and special character issues.
+- **Maintainer Priority**: Default to internal/maintainer labels to keep the
+  backlog organized.
+- **Completeness**: Provide all requested information (e.g., version info,
+  reproduction steps).

+description: Use this skill if the user asks you to help them address GitHub PR comments for their current branch of the Gemini CLI. Requires `gh` CLI tool.
+---
+You are helping the user address comments on their Pull Request. These comments may have come from an automated review agent or a team member.
+
+OBJECTIVE: Help the user review and address comments on their PR.
+
+# Comment Review Procedure
+
+1. Run the `scripts/fetch-pr-info.js` script to get PR info and state. MAKE SURE you read the entire output of the command, even if it gets truncated.
+2. Summarize the review status by analyzing the diff, commit log, and comments to see which still need to be addressed. Pay attention to the current user's comments. For resolved threads, summarize as a single line with a ✅. For open threads, provide a reference number e.g. [1] and the comment content.
+3. Present your summary of the feedback and current state and allow the user to guide you as to what to fix/address/skip. DO NOT begin fixing issues automatically.

+# Enterprise Admin Controls
+
+Gemini CLI empowers enterprise administrators to manage and enforce security
+policies and configuration settings across their entire organization. Secure
+defaults are enabled automatically for all enterprise users, but can be
+customized via the [Management Console](https://goo.gle/manage-gemini-cli).
+
+**Enterprise Admin Controls are enforced globally and cannot be overridden by
+users locally**, ensuring a consistent security posture.
+
+## Admin Controls vs. System Settings
+
+While [System-wide settings](../cli/settings.md) act as convenient configuration
+overrides, they can still be modified by users with sufficient privileges. In
+contrast, admin controls are immutable at the local level, making them the
+preferred method for enforcing policy.
+
+## Available Controls
+
+### Strict Mode
+
+**Enabled/Disabled** | Default: enabled
+
+If enabled, users will not be able to enter yolo mode.
+
+### Extensions
+
+**Enabled/Disabled** | Default: disabled
+
+If disabled, users will not be able to use or install extensions. See
+[Extensions](../extensions/index.md) for more details.
+
+### MCP
+
+#### Enabled/Disabled
+
+**Enabled/Disabled** | Default: disabled
+
+If disabled, users will not be able to use MCP servers. See
+[MCP Server Integration](../tools/mcp-server.md) for more details.
+
+#### MCP Servers (preview)
+
+**Default**: empty
+
+Allows administrators to define an explicit allowlist of MCP servers. This
+guarantees that users can only connect to trusted MCP servers defined by the
+organization.
+
+**Allowlist Format:**
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "external-provider": {
+      "url": "https://api.mcp-provider.com",
+      "type": "sse",
+      "trust": true,
+      "includeTools": ["toolA", "toolB"],
+      "excludeTools": []
+    },
+    "internal-corp-tool": {
+      "url": "https://mcp.internal-tool.corp",
+      "type": "http",
+      "includeTools": [],
+      "excludeTools": ["adminTool"]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+**Supported Fields:**
+
+- `url`: (Required) The full URL of the MCP server endpoint.
+- `type`: (Required) The connection type (e.g., `sse` or `http`).
+- `trust`: (Optional) If set to `true`, the server is trusted and tool execution
+  will not require user approval.
+- `includeTools`: (Optional) An explicit list of tool names to allow. If
+  specified, only these tools will be available.
+- `excludeTools`: (Optional) A list of tool names to hide. These tools will be
+  blocked.
+
+**Client Enforcement Logic:**
+
+- **Empty Allowlist**: If the admin allowlist is empty, the client uses the
+  user’s local configuration as is (unless the MCP toggle above is disabled).
+- **Active Allowlist**: If the allowlist contains one or more servers, **all
+  locally configured servers not present in the allowlist are ignored**.
+- **Configuration Merging**: For a server to be active, it must exist in
+  **both** the admin allowlist and the user’s local configuration (matched by
+  name). The client merges these definitions as follows:
+  - **Override Fields**: The `url`, `type`, & `trust` are always taken from the
+    admin allowlist, overriding any local values.
+  - **Tools Filtering**: If `includeTools` or `excludeTools` are defined in the
+    allowlist, the admin’s rules are used exclusively. If both are undefined in
+    the admin allowlist, the client falls back to the user’s local tool
+    settings.
+  - **Cleared Fields**: To ensure security and consistency, the client
+    automatically clears local execution fields (`command`, `args`, `env`,
+    `cwd`, `httpUrl`, `tcp`). This prevents users from overriding the connection
+    method.
+  - **Other Fields**: All other MCP fields are pulled from the user’s local
+    configuration.
+- **Missing Allowlisted Servers**: If a server appears in the admin allowlist
+  but is missing from the local configuration, it will not be initialized. This
+  ensures users maintain final control over which permitted servers are actually
+  active in their environment.
+
+### Unmanaged Capabilities
+
+**Enabled/Disabled** | Default: disabled
+
+If disabled, users will not be able to use certain features. Currently, this
+control disables Agent Skills. See [Agent Skills](../cli/skills.md) for more
+details.

-# Gemini CLI Architecture Overview
-
-This document provides a high-level overview of the Gemini CLI's architecture.
-
-## Core components
-
-The Gemini CLI is primarily composed of two main packages, along with a suite of
-tools that can be used by the system in the course of handling command-line
-input:
-
-1.  **CLI package (`packages/cli`):**
-    - **Purpose:** This contains the user-facing portion of the Gemini CLI, such
-      as handling the initial user input, presenting the final output, and
-      managing the overall user experience.
-    - **Key functions contained in the package:**
-      - [Input processing](/docs/cli/commands)
-      - History management
-      - Display rendering
-      - [Theme and UI customization](/docs/cli/themes)
-      - [CLI configuration settings](/docs/get-started/configuration)
-
-2.  **Core package (`packages/core`):**
-    - **Purpose:** This acts as the backend for the Gemini CLI. It receives
-      requests sent from `packages/cli`, orchestrates interactions with the
-      Gemini API, and manages the execution of available tools.
-    - **Key functions contained in the package:**
-      - API client for communicating with the Google Gemini API
-      - Prompt construction and management
-      - Tool registration and execution logic
-      - State management for conversations or sessions
-      - Server-side configuration
-
-3.  **Tools (`packages/core/src/tools/`):**
-    - **Purpose:** These are individual modules that extend the capabilities of
-      the Gemini model, allowing it to interact with the local environment
-      (e.g., file system, shell commands, web fetching).
-    - **Interaction:** `packages/core` invokes these tools based on requests
-      from the Gemini model.
-
-## Interaction flow
-
-A typical interaction with the Gemini CLI follows this flow:
-
-1.  **User input:** The user types a prompt or command into the terminal, which
-    is managed by `packages/cli`.
-2.  **Request to core:** `packages/cli` sends the user's input to
-    `packages/core`.
-3.  **Request processed:** The core package:
-    - Constructs an appropriate prompt for the Gemini API, possibly including
-      conversation history and available tool definitions.
-    - Sends the prompt to the Gemini API.
-4.  **Gemini API response:** The Gemini API processes the prompt and returns a
-    response. This response might be a direct answer or a request to use one of
-    the available tools.
-5.  **Tool execution (if applicable):**
-    - When the Gemini API requests a tool, the core package prepares to execute
-      it.
-    - If the requested tool can modify the file system or execute shell
-      commands, the user is first given details of the tool and its arguments,
-      and the user must approve the execution.
-    - Read-only operations, such as reading files, might not require explicit
-      user confirmation to proceed.
-    - Once confirmed, or if confirmation is not required, the core package
-      executes the relevant action within the relevant tool, and the result is
-      sent back to the Gemini API by the core package.
-    - The Gemini API processes the tool result and generates a final response.
-6.  **Response to CLI:** The core package sends the final response back to the
-    CLI package.
-7.  **Display to user:** The CLI package formats and displays the response to
-    the user in the terminal.
-
-## Key design principles
-
-- **Modularity:** Separating the CLI (frontend) from the Core (backend) allows
-  for independent development and potential future extensions (e.g., different
-  frontends for the same backend).
-- **Extensibility:** The tool system is designed to be extensible, allowing new
-  capabilities to be added.
-- **User experience:** The CLI focuses on providing a rich and interactive
-  terminal experience.

 ## Highlights
 
-- **Enhanced Agent and Skill Capabilities:** This release introduces the new
-  `skill-creator` built-in skill, enables Agent Skills by default, and adds a
-  generalist agent to improve task routing. Security for skill installation has
-  also been enhanced with new consent prompts.
-- **Improved UI and UX:** A new "Rewind" feature lets you walk back through
-  conversation history. We've also added an `/introspect` command for debugging
-  and unified various shell confirmation dialogs for a more consistent user
-  experience.
-- **Core Stability and Performance:** This release includes significant
-  performance improvements, including a fix for PDF token estimation,
-  optimizations for large inputs, and prevention of OOM crashes. Key memory
-  management components like `LRUCache` have also been updated.
-- **Scheduler and Policy Refactoring:** The core tool scheduler has been
-  decoupled into distinct orchestration, policy, and confirmation components,
-  and we've added an experimental event-driven scheduler to improve performance
-  and reliability.
+- **Gemini 3.1 Pro Preview:** Gemini CLI now supports the new Gemini 3.1 Pro
+  Preview model.
+- **Experimental Browser Agent:** We've introduced a new experimental browser
+  agent to directly interact with web pages and retrieve context.
+- **Policy Engine Updates:** The policy engine has been expanded to support
+  project-level policies, MCP server wildcards, and tool annotation matching,
+  providing greater control over tool executions.
+- **Web Fetch Enhancements:** A new experimental direct web fetch tool has been
+  implemented, alongside rate-limiting features for enhanced security.
+- **Improved Plan Mode:** Plan Mode now includes support for custom storage
+  directories, automatic model switching, and summarizing work after execution.

-# CLI commands
-
-Gemini CLI supports several built-in commands to help you manage your session,
-customize the interface, and control its behavior. These commands are prefixed
-with a forward slash (`/`), an at symbol (`@`), or an exclamation mark (`!`).
-
-## Slash commands (`/`)
-
-Slash commands provide meta-level control over the CLI itself.
-
-### Built-in Commands
-
-- **`/about`**
-  - **Description:** Show version info. Please share this information when
-    filing issues.
-
-- **`/auth`**
-  - **Description:** Open a dialog that lets you change the authentication
-    method.
-
-- **`/bug`**
-  - **Description:** File an issue about Gemini CLI. By default, the issue is
-    filed within the GitHub repository for Gemini CLI. The string you enter
-    after `/bug` will become the headline for the bug being filed. The default
-    `/bug` behavior can be modified using the `advanced.bugCommand` setting in
-    your `.gemini/settings.json` files.
-
-- **`/chat`**
-  - **Description:** Save and resume conversation history for branching
-    conversation state interactively, or resuming a previous state from a later
-    session.
-  - **Sub-commands:**
-    - **`delete <tag>`**
-      - **Description:** Deletes a saved conversation checkpoint.
-    - **`list`**
-      - **Description:** Lists available tags for chat state resumption.
-      - **Note:** This command only lists chats saved within the current
-        project. Because chat history is project-scoped, chats saved in other
-        project directories will not be displayed.
-    - **`resume <tag>`**
-      - **Description:** Resumes a conversation from a previous save.
-      - **Note:** You can only resume chats that were saved within the current
-        project. To resume a chat from a different project, you must run the
-        Gemini CLI from that project's directory.
-    - **`save <tag>`**
-      - **Description:** Saves the current conversation history. You must add a
-        `<tag>` for identifying the conversation state.
-      - **Details on checkpoint location:** The default locations for saved chat
-        checkpoints are:
-        - Linux/macOS: `~/.gemini/tmp/<project_hash>/`
-        - Windows: `C:\Users\<YourUsername>\.gemini\tmp\<project_hash>\`
-        - **Behavior:** Chats are saved into a project-specific directory,
-          determined by where you run the CLI. Consequently, saved chats are
-          only accessible when working within that same project.
-        - **Note:** These checkpoints are for manually saving and resuming
-          conversation states. For automatic checkpoints created before file
-          modifications, see the
-          [Checkpointing documentation](../cli/checkpointing.md).
-    - **`share [filename]`**
-      - **Description** Writes the current conversation to a provided Markdown
-        or JSON file. If no filename is provided, then the CLI will generate
-        one.
-      - **Usage** `/chat share file.md` or `/chat share file.json`.
-
-- **`/clear`**
-  - **Description:** Clear the terminal screen, including the visible session
-    history and scrollback within the CLI. The underlying session data (for
-    history recall) might be preserved depending on the exact implementation,
-    but the visual display is cleared.
-  - **Keyboard shortcut:** Press **Ctrl+L** at any time to perform a clear
-    action.
-
-- **`/compress`**
-  - **Description:** Replace the entire chat context with a summary. This saves
-    on tokens used for future tasks while retaining a high level summary of what
-    has happened.
-
-- **`/copy`**
-  - **Description:** Copies the last output produced by Gemini CLI to your
-    clipboard, for easy sharing or reuse.
-  - **Behavior:**
-    - Local sessions use system clipboard tools (pbcopy/xclip/clip).
-    - Remote sessions (SSH/WSL) use OSC 52 and require terminal support.
-  - **Note:** This command requires platform-specific clipboard tools to be
-    installed.
-    - On Linux, it requires `xclip` or `xsel`. You can typically install them
-      using your system's package manager.
-    - On macOS, it requires `pbcopy`, and on Windows, it requires `clip`. These
-      tools are typically pre-installed on their respective systems.
-
-- **`/directory`** (or **`/dir`**)
-  - **Description:** Manage workspace directories for multi-directory support.
-  - **Sub-commands:**
-    - **`add`**:

-        reference from home directory is supported as well.
-      - **Usage:** `/directory add <path1>,<path2>`
-      - **Note:** Disabled in restrictive sandbox profiles. If you're using
-        that, use `--include-directories` when starting the session instead.
-    - **`show`**:
-      - **Description:** Display all directories added by `/directory add` and
-        `--include-directories`.
-      - **Usage:** `/directory show`

-
-### Custom commands
-
-Custom commands allow you to create personalized shortcuts for your most-used
-prompts. For detailed instructions on how to create, manage, and use them,
-please see the dedicated [Custom Commands documentation](./custom-commands.md).
-
-## Input prompt shortcuts
-
-These shortcuts apply directly to the input prompt for text manipulation.
-
-- **Undo:**
-  - **Keyboard shortcut:** Press **Cmd+z** or **Alt+z** to undo the last action
-    in the input prompt.
-
-- **Redo:**
-  - **Keyboard shortcut:** Press **Shift+Cmd+Z** or **Shift+Alt+Z** to redo the
-    last undone action in the input prompt.
-
-## At commands (`@`)
-
-At commands are used to include the content of files or directories as part of
-your prompt to Gemini. These commands include git-aware filtering.
-
-- **`@<path_to_file_or_directory>`**
-  - **Description:** Inject the content of the specified file or files into your
-    current prompt. This is useful for asking questions about specific code,
-    text, or collections of files.
-  - **Examples:**
-    - `@path/to/your/file.txt Explain this text.`
-    - `@src/my_project/ Summarize the code in this directory.`
-    - `What is this file about? @README.md`
-  - **Details:**
-    - If a path to a single file is provided, the content of that file is read.
-    - If a path to a directory is provided, the command attempts to read the
-      content of files within that directory and any subdirectories.
-    - Spaces in paths should be escaped with a backslash (e.g.,
-      `@My\ Documents/file.txt`).
-    - The command uses the `read_many_files` tool internally. The content is
-      fetched and then inserted into your query before being sent to the Gemini
-      model.
-    - **Git-aware filtering:** By default, git-ignored files (like
-      `node_modules/`, `dist/`, `.env`, `.git/`) are excluded. This behavior can
-      be changed via the `context.fileFiltering` settings.
-    - **File types:** The command is intended for text-based files. While it
-      might attempt to read any file, binary files or very large files might be
-      skipped or truncated by the underlying `read_many_files` tool to ensure
-      performance and relevance. The tool indicates if files were skipped.
-  - **Output:** The CLI will show a tool call message indicating that
-    `read_many_files` was used, along with a message detailing the status and
-    the path(s) that were processed.
-
-- **`@` (Lone at symbol)**
-  - **Description:** If you type a lone `@` symbol without a path, the query is
-    passed as-is to the Gemini model. This might be useful if you are
-    specifically talking _about_ the `@` symbol in your prompt.
-
-### Error handling for `@` commands
-
-- If the path specified after `@` is not found or is invalid, an error message
-  will be displayed, and the query might not be sent to the Gemini model, or it
-  will be sent without the file content.
-- If the `read_many_files` tool encounters an error (e.g., permission issues),
-  this will also be reported.
-
-## Shell mode and passthrough commands (`!`)
-
-The `!` prefix lets you interact with your system's shell directly from within
-Gemini CLI.
-
-- **`!<shell_command>`**
-  - **Description:** Execute the given `<shell_command>` using `bash` on
-    Linux/macOS or `powershell.exe -NoProfile -Command` on Windows (unless you
-    override `ComSpec`). Any output or errors from the command are displayed in

-
-- **`!` (Toggle shell mode)**
-  - **Description:** Typing `!` on its own toggles shell mode.
-    - **Entering shell mode:**
-      - When active, shell mode uses a different coloring and a "Shell Mode
-        Indicator".
-      - While in shell mode, text you type is interpreted directly as a shell
-        command.
-    - **Exiting shell mode:**
-      - When exited, the UI reverts to its standard appearance and normal Gemini
-        CLI behavior resumes.
-
-- **Caution for all `!` usage:** Commands you execute in shell mode have the
-  same permissions and impact as if you ran them directly in your terminal.
-
-- **Environment variable:** When a command is executed via `!` or in shell mode,
-  the `GEMINI_CLI=1` environment variable is set in the subprocess's
-  environment. This allows scripts or tools to detect if they are being run from
-  within the Gemini CLI.

+## Technical reference
 
-## Overview
+Headless mode is triggered when the CLI is run in a non-TTY environment or when
+providing a query as a positional argument without the interactive flag.
 
-The headless mode provides a headless interface to Gemini CLI that:
+### Output formats
 
-- Accepts prompts via command line arguments or stdin
-- Returns structured output (text or JSON)
-- Supports file redirection and piping
-- Enables automation and scripting workflows
-- Provides consistent exit codes for error handling
+You can specify the output format using the `--output-format` flag.
 
-## Basic usage
+#### JSON output
 
-### Direct prompts
+Returns a single JSON object containing the response and usage statistics.
 
-Use the `--prompt` (or `-p`) flag to run in headless mode:
+- **Schema:**
+  - `response`: (string) The model's final answer.
+  - `stats`: (object) Token usage and API latency metrics.
+  - `error`: (object, optional) Error details if the request failed.
 
-```bash
-gemini --prompt "What is machine learning?"
-```
+#### Streaming JSON output
 
-### Stdin input
+Returns a stream of newline-delimited JSON (JSONL) events.
 
-Pipe input to Gemini CLI from your terminal:
+- **Event types:**
+  - `init`: Session metadata (session ID, model).
+  - `message`: User and assistant message chunks.
+  - `tool_use`: Tool call requests with arguments.
+  - `tool_result`: Output from executed tools.
+  - `error`: Non-fatal warnings and system errors.
+  - `result`: Final outcome with aggregated statistics.
 
-```bash
-echo "Explain this code" | gemini
-```
+## Exit codes
 
-### Combining with file input
+The CLI returns standard exit codes to indicate the result of the headless
+execution:
 
-Read from files and process with Gemini:
+- `0`: Success.
+- `1`: General error or API failure.
+- `42`: Input error (invalid prompt or arguments).
+- `53`: Turn limit exceeded.
 
-```bash
-cat README.md | gemini --prompt "Summarize this documentation"
-```
+## Next steps
 
-## Output formats
-
-### Text output (default)
-
-Standard human-readable output:
-
-```bash
-gemini -p "What is the capital of France?"
-```
-
-Response format:
-
-```
-The capital of France is Paris.
-```
-
-### JSON output
-
-Returns structured data including response, statistics, and metadata. This
-format is ideal for programmatic processing and automation scripts.
-
-#### Response schema
-
-The JSON output follows this high-level structure:
-
-```json

-
-### Streaming JSON output
-
-Returns real-time events as newline-delimited JSON (JSONL). Each significant
-action (initialization, messages, tool calls, results) emits immediately as it
-occurs. This format is ideal for monitoring long-running operations, building
-UIs with live progress, and creating automation pipelines that react to events.
-
-#### When to use streaming JSON
-
-Use `--output-format stream-json` when you need:
-
-- **Real-time progress monitoring** - See tool calls and responses as they
-  happen
-- **Event-driven automation** - React to specific events (e.g., tool failures)
-- **Live UI updates** - Build interfaces showing AI agent activity in real-time
-- **Detailed execution logs** - Capture complete interaction history with
-  timestamps
-- **Pipeline integration** - Stream events to logging/monitoring systems
-
-#### Event types
-
-The streaming format emits 6 event types:
-
-1. **`init`** - Session starts (includes session_id, model)
-2. **`message`** - User prompts and assistant responses
-3. **`tool_use`** - Tool call requests with parameters
-4. **`tool_result`** - Tool execution results (success/error)
-5. **`error`** - Non-fatal errors and warnings
-6. **`result`** - Final session outcome with aggregated stats
-
-#### Basic usage
-
-```bash
-# Stream events to console
-gemini --output-format stream-json --prompt "What is 2+2?"
-
-# Save event stream to file
-gemini --output-format stream-json --prompt "Analyze this code" > events.jsonl
-
-# Parse with jq
-gemini --output-format stream-json --prompt "List files" | jq -r '.type'
-```
-
-#### Example output
-
-Each line is a complete JSON event:
-
-```jsonl
-{"type":"init","timestamp":"2025-10-10T12:00:00.000Z","session_id":"abc123","model":"gemini-2.0-flash-exp"}
-{"type":"message","role":"user","content":"List files in current directory","timestamp":"2025-10-10T12:00:01.000Z"}
-{"type":"tool_use","tool_name":"Bash","tool_id":"bash-123","parameters":{"command":"ls -la"},"timestamp":"2025-10-10T12:00:02.000Z"}
-{"type":"tool_result","tool_id":"bash-123","status":"success","output":"file1.txt\nfile2.txt","timestamp":"2025-10-10T12:00:03.000Z"}
-{"type":"message","role":"assistant","content":"Here are the files...","delta":true,"timestamp":"2025-10-10T12:00:04.000Z"}
-{"type":"result","status":"success","stats":{"total_tokens":250,"input_tokens":50,"output_tokens":200,"duration_ms":3000,"tool_calls":1},"timestamp":"2025-10-10T12:00:05.000Z"}
-```
-
-### File redirection
-
-Save output to files or pipe to other commands:
-
-```bash
-# Save to file
-gemini -p "Explain Docker" > docker-explanation.txt
-gemini -p "Explain Docker" --output-format json > docker-explanation.json
-
-# Append to file
-gemini -p "Add more details" >> docker-explanation.txt
-
-# Pipe to other tools
-gemini -p "What is Kubernetes?" --output-format json | jq '.response'
-gemini -p "Explain microservices" | wc -w
-gemini -p "List programming languages" | grep -i "python"
-```

-
-## Non-interactive mode
-
-Gemini CLI can be run in a non-interactive mode, which is useful for scripting
-and automation. In this mode, you pipe input to the CLI, it executes the
-command, and then it exits.
-
-The following example pipes a command to Gemini CLI from your terminal:
-
-```bash
-echo "What is fine tuning?" | gemini
-```
-
-You can also use the `--prompt` or `-p` flag:
-
-```bash
-gemini -p "What is fine tuning?"
-```
-
-For comprehensive documentation on headless usage, scripting, automation, and
-advanced examples, see the **[Headless mode](./headless.md)** guide.

+
+## Enabling Plan Mode
+
+To use Plan Mode, enable it via **/settings** (search for **Plan**) or add the
+following to your `settings.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "experimental": {
+    "plan": true
+  }
+}
+```
+
+## How to use Plan Mode
+
+### Entering Plan Mode
+
+You can configure Gemini CLI to start in Plan Mode by default or enter it
+manually during a session.
+
+- **Configuration:** Configure Gemini CLI to start directly in Plan Mode by
+  default:
+  1.  Type `/settings` in the CLI.
+  2.  Search for **Default Approval Mode**.
+  3.  Set the value to **Plan**.
+
+  Alternatively, use the `gemini --approval-mode=plan` CLI flag or manually
+  update:
+
+  ```json
+  {
+    "general": {
+      "defaultApprovalMode": "plan"
+    }
+  }
+  ```
+
+- **Keyboard Shortcut:** Press `Shift+Tab` to cycle through approval modes
+  (`Default` -> `Auto-Edit` -> `Plan`).
+
+  > **Note:** Plan Mode is automatically removed from the rotation when Gemini
+  > CLI is actively processing or showing confirmation dialogs.
+
+- **Command:** Type `/plan` in the input box.
+
+- **Natural Language:** Ask Gemini CLI to "start a plan for...". Gemini CLI then
+  calls the [`enter_plan_mode`] tool to switch modes.
+  > **Note:** This tool is not available when Gemini CLI is in [YOLO mode].
+
+### Planning Workflow
+
+Plan Mode uses an adaptive planning workflow where the research depth, plan
+structure, and consultation level are proportional to the task's complexity:
+
+1.  **Explore & Analyze:** Analyze requirements and use read-only tools to map
+    affected modules and identify dependencies.
+2.  **Consult:** The depth of consultation is proportional to the task's
+    complexity:
+    - **Simple Tasks:** Proceed directly to drafting.
+    - **Standard Tasks:** Present a summary of viable approaches via
+      [`ask_user`] for selection.
+    - **Complex Tasks:** Present detailed trade-offs for at least two viable
+      approaches via [`ask_user`] and obtain approval before drafting.
+3.  **Draft:** Write a detailed implementation plan to the
+    [plans directory](#custom-plan-directory-and-policies). The plan's structure
+    adapts to the task:
+    - **Simple Tasks:** Focused on specific **Changes** and **Verification**
+      steps.
+    - **Standard Tasks:** Includes an **Objective**, **Key Files & Context**,
+      **Implementation Steps**, and **Verification & Testing**.
+    - **Complex Tasks:** Comprehensive plans including **Background &
+      Motivation**, **Scope & Impact**, **Proposed Solution**, **Alternatives
+      Considered**, a phased **Implementation Plan**, **Verification**, and
+      **Migration & Rollback** strategies.
+4.  **Review & Approval:** Use the [`exit_plan_mode`] tool to present the plan
+    and formally request approval.
+    - **Approve:** Exit Plan Mode and start implementation.
+    - **Iterate:** Provide feedback to refine the plan.
+    - **Refine manually:** Press **Ctrl + X** to open the plan file in your
+      [preferred external editor]. This allows you to manually refine the plan
+      steps before approval. If you make any changes and save the file, the CLI
+      will automatically send the updated plan back to the agent for review and
+      iteration.
+
+For more complex or specialized planning tasks, you can
+[customize the planning workflow with skills](#customizing-planning-with-skills).
+
+### Exiting Plan Mode
+
+To exit Plan Mode, you can:
+
+- **Keyboard Shortcut:** Press `Shift+Tab` to cycle to the desired mode.
+
+- **Tool:** Gemini CLI calls the [`exit_plan_mode`] tool to present the
+  finalized plan for your approval.
+
+## Tool Restrictions
+
+Plan Mode enforces strict safety policies to prevent accidental changes.
+
+These are the only allowed tools:
+
+- **FileSystem (Read):** [`read_file`], [`list_directory`], [`glob`]
+- **Search:** [`grep_search`], [`google_web_search`]
+- **Interaction:** [`ask_user`]
+- **MCP Tools (Read):** Read-only [MCP tools] (e.g., `github_read_issue`,
+  `postgres_read_schema`) are allowed.
+- **Planning (Write):** [`write_file`] and [`replace`] only allowed for `.md`
+  files in the `~/.gemini/tmp/<project>/<session-id>/plans/` directory or your
+  [custom plans directory](#custom-plan-directory-and-policies).
+- **Memory:** [`save_memory`]
+- **Skills:** [`activate_skill`] (allows loading specialized instructions and
+  resources in a read-only manner)
+
+### Customizing Planning with Skills
+
+You can use [Agent Skills](./skills.md) to customize how Gemini CLI approaches
+planning for specific types of tasks. When a skill is activated during Plan
+Mode, its specialized instructions and procedural workflows will guide the
+research, design and planning phases.
+
+For example:
+
+- A **"Database Migration"** skill could ensure the plan includes data safety
+  checks and rollback strategies.
+- A **"Security Audit"** skill could prompt Gemini CLI to look for specific
+  vulnerabilities during codebase exploration.
+- A **"Frontend Design"** skill could guide Gemini CLI to use specific UI
+  components and accessibility standards in its proposal.
+
+To use a skill in Plan Mode, you can explicitly ask Gemini CLI to "use the
+`<skill-name>` skill to plan..." or Gemini CLI may autonomously activate it
+based on the task description.
+
+### Customizing Policies
+
+Plan Mode's default tool restrictions are managed by the [policy engine] and
+defined in the built-in [`plan.toml`] file. The built-in policy (Tier 1)
+enforces the read-only state, but you can customize these rules by creating your
+own policies in your `~/.gemini/policies/` directory (Tier 2).
+
+#### Example: Automatically approve read-only MCP tools
+
+By default, read-only MCP tools require user confirmation in Plan Mode. You can
+use `toolAnnotations` and the `mcpName` wildcard to customize this behavior for
+your specific environment.
+
+`~/.gemini/policies/mcp-read-only.toml`
+
+```toml
+[[rule]]
+mcpName = "*"
+toolAnnotations = { readOnlyHint = true }
+decision = "allow"
+priority = 100
+modes = ["plan"]
+```
+
+#### Example: Allow git commands in Plan Mode
+
+This rule allows you to check the repository status and see changes while in
+Plan Mode.
+
+`~/.gemini/policies/git-research.toml`
+
+```toml
+[[rule]]
+toolName = "run_shell_command"
+commandPrefix = ["git status", "git diff"]
+decision = "allow"
+priority = 100
+modes = ["plan"]
+```
+
+#### Example: Enable research subagents in Plan Mode
+
+You can enable experimental research [subagents] like `codebase_investigator` to
+help gather architecture details during the planning phase.
+
+`~/.gemini/policies/research-subagents.toml`
+
+```toml
+[[rule]]
+toolName = "codebase_investigator"
+decision = "allow"
+priority = 100
+modes = ["plan"]
+```
+
+Tell Gemini CLI it can use these tools in your prompt, for example: _"You can
+check ongoing changes in git."_
+
+For more information on how the policy engine works, see the [policy engine]
+docs.
+
+### Custom Plan Directory and Policies
+
+By default, planning artifacts are stored in a managed temporary directory
+outside your project: `~/.gemini/tmp/<project>/<session-id>/plans/`.
+
+You can configure a custom directory for plans in your `settings.json`. For
+example, to store plans in a `.gemini/plans` directory within your project:
+
+```json
+{
+  "general": {
+    "plan": {
+      "directory": ".gemini/plans"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+To maintain the safety of Plan Mode, user-configured paths for the plans
+directory are restricted to the project root. This ensures that custom planning
+locations defined within a project's workspace cannot be used to escape and
+overwrite sensitive files elsewhere. Any user-configured directory must reside
+within the project boundary.
+
+Using a custom directory requires updating your [policy engine] configurations
+to allow `write_file` and `replace` in that specific location. For example, to
+allow writing to the `.gemini/plans` directory within your project, create a
+policy file at `~/.gemini/policies/plan-custom-directory.toml`:
+
+```toml
+[[rule]]
+toolName = ["write_file", "replace"]
+decision = "allow"
+priority = 100
+modes = ["plan"]
+# Adjust the pattern to match your custom directory.
+# This example matches any .md file in a .gemini/plans directory within the project.
+argsPattern = "\"file_path\":\"[^\"]+[\\\\/]+\\.gemini[\\\\/]+plans[\\\\/]+[\\w-]+\\.md\""
+```
+
+## Automatic Model Routing
+
+When using an [**auto model**], Gemini CLI automatically optimizes [**model
+routing**] based on the current phase of your task:
+
+1.  **Planning Phase:** While in Plan Mode, the CLI routes requests to a
+    high-reasoning **Pro** model to ensure robust architectural decisions and
+    high-quality plans.
+2.  **Implementation Phase:** Once a plan is approved and you exit Plan Mode,
+    the CLI detects the existence of the approved plan and automatically
+    switches to a high-speed **Flash** model. This provides a faster, more
+    responsive experience during the implementation of the plan.
+
+This behavior is enabled by default to provide the best balance of quality and
+performance. You can disable this automatic switching in your settings:
+
+```json
+{
+  "general": {
+    "plan": {
+      "modelRouting": false
+    }
+  }
+}

+## Understanding folder contents: The discovery phase
+
+Before you make a choice, the Gemini CLI performs a **discovery phase** to scan

+
+The discovery UI lists the following categories of items found in the project:

-## Agent Skills

-
-## Setting up a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server
-
-> [!CAUTION] Before using a third-party MCP server, ensure you trust its source
-> and understand the tools it provides. Your use of third-party servers is at
-> your own risk.
-
-This tutorial demonstrates how to set up an MCP server, using the
-[GitHub MCP server](https://github.com/github/github-mcp-server) as an example.
-The GitHub MCP server provides tools for interacting with GitHub repositories,
-such as creating issues and commenting on pull requests.
-
-### Prerequisites
-
-Before you begin, ensure you have the following installed and configured:
-
-- **Docker:** Install and run [Docker].
-- **GitHub Personal Access Token (PAT):** Create a new [classic] or
-  [fine-grained] PAT with the necessary scopes.
-
-[Docker]: https://www.docker.com/
-[classic]: https://github.com/settings/tokens/new
-[fine-grained]: https://github.com/settings/personal-access-tokens/new
-
-### Guide
-
-#### Configure the MCP server in `settings.json`
-
-In your project's root directory, create or open the
-[`.gemini/settings.json` file](../get-started/configuration.md). Within the
-file, add the `mcpServers` configuration block, which provides instructions for
-how to launch the GitHub MCP server.
-
-```json
-{
-  "mcpServers": {
-    "github": {
-      "command": "docker",
-      "args": [
-        "run",
-        "-i",
-        "--rm",
-        "-e",
-        "GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN",
-        "ghcr.io/github/github-mcp-server"
-      ],
-      "env": {
-        "GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN": "${GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN}"
-      }
-    }
-  }
-}
-```
-
-#### Set your GitHub token
-
-> [!CAUTION] Using a broadly scoped personal access token that has access to
-> personal and private repositories can lead to information from the private
-> repository being leaked into the public repository. We recommend using a
-> fine-grained access token that doesn't share access to both public and private
-> repositories.
-
-Use an environment variable to store your GitHub PAT:
-
-```bash
-GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN="pat_YourActualGitHubTokenHere"
-```
-
-Gemini CLI uses this value in the `mcpServers` configuration that you defined in
-the `settings.json` file.
-
-#### Launch Gemini CLI and verify the connection
-
-When you launch Gemini CLI, it automatically reads your configuration and
-launches the GitHub MCP server in the background. You can then use natural
-language prompts to ask Gemini CLI to perform GitHub actions. For example:
-
-```bash
-"get all open issues assigned to me in the 'foo/bar' repo and prioritize them"
-```

+# Automate tasks with headless mode
+
+Automate tasks with Gemini CLI. Learn how to use headless mode, pipe data into
+Gemini CLI, automate workflows with shell scripts, and generate structured JSON
+output for other applications.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Gemini CLI installed and authenticated.
+- Familiarity with shell scripting (Bash/Zsh).
+
+## Why headless mode?
+
+Headless mode runs Gemini CLI once and exits. It's perfect for:
+
+- **CI/CD:** Analyzing pull requests automatically.
+- **Batch processing:** Summarizing a large number of log files.
+- **Tool building:** Creating your own "AI wrapper" scripts.
+
+## How to use headless mode
+
+Run Gemini CLI in headless mode by providing a prompt as a positional argument.
+This bypasses the interactive chat interface and prints the response to standard
+output (stdout).
+
+Run a single command:
+
+```bash
+gemini "Write a poem about TypeScript"
+```
+
+## How to pipe input to Gemini CLI
+
+Feed data into Gemini using the standard Unix pipe `|`. Gemini reads the
+standard input (stdin) as context and answers your question using standard
+output.
+
+Pipe a file:
+
+**macOS/Linux**
+
+```bash
+cat error.log | gemini "Explain why this failed"
+```
+
+**Windows (PowerShell)**
+
+```powershell
+Get-Content error.log | gemini "Explain why this failed"
+```
+
+Pipe a command:
+
+```bash
+git diff | gemini "Write a commit message for these changes"
+```
+
+## Use Gemini CLI output in scripts
+
+Because Gemini prints to stdout, you can chain it with other tools or save the
+results to a file.
+
+### Scenario: Bulk documentation generator
+
+You have a folder of Python scripts and want to generate a `README.md` for each
+one.
+
+1.  Save the following code as `generate_docs.sh` (or `generate_docs.ps1` for
+    Windows):
+
+    **macOS/Linux (`generate_docs.sh`)**
+
+    ```bash
+    #!/bin/bash
+
+    # Loop through all Python files
+    for file in *.py; do
+      echo "Generating docs for $file..."
+
+      # Ask Gemini CLI to generate the documentation and print it to stdout
+      gemini "Generate a Markdown documentation summary for @$file. Print the
+      result to standard output." > "${file%.py}.md"
+    done
+    ```
+
+    **Windows PowerShell (`generate_docs.ps1`)**
+
+    ```powershell
+    # Loop through all Python files
+    Get-ChildItem -Filter *.py | ForEach-Object {
+      Write-Host "Generating docs for $($_.Name)..."
+
+      $newName = $_.Name -replace '\.py$', '.md'
+      # Ask Gemini CLI to generate the documentation and print it to stdout
+      gemini "Generate a Markdown documentation summary for @$($_.Name). Print the result to standard output." | Out-File -FilePath $newName -Encoding utf8
+    }
+    ```
+
+2.  Make the script executable and run it in your directory:
+
+    **macOS/Linux**
+
+    ```bash
+    chmod +x generate_docs.sh
+    ./generate_docs.sh
+    ```
+
+    **Windows (PowerShell)**
+
+    ```powershell
+    .\generate_docs.ps1
+    ```
+
+    This creates a corresponding Markdown file for every Python file in the
+    folder.
+
+## Extract structured JSON data
+
+When writing a script, you often need structured data (JSON) to pass to tools
+like `jq`. To get pure JSON data from the model, combine the
+`--output-format json` flag with `jq` to parse the response field.
+
+### Scenario: Extract and return structured data
+
+1.  Save the following script as `generate_json.sh` (or `generate_json.ps1` for
+    Windows):
+
+    **macOS/Linux (`generate_json.sh`)**
+
+    ```bash
+    #!/bin/bash
+
+    # Ensure we are in a project root
+    if [ ! -f "package.json" ]; then
+      echo "Error: package.json not found."
+      exit 1
+    fi
+
+    # Extract data
+    gemini --output-format json "Return a raw JSON object with keys 'version' and 'deps' from @package.json" | jq -r '.response' > data.json
+    ```
+
+    **Windows PowerShell (`generate_json.ps1`)**
+
+    ```powershell
+    # Ensure we are in a project root
+    if (-not (Test-Path "package.json")) {
+      Write-Error "Error: package.json not found."
+      exit 1
+    }
+
+    # Extract data (requires jq installed, or you can use ConvertFrom-Json)
+    $output = gemini --output-format json "Return a raw JSON object with keys 'version' and 'deps' from @package.json" | ConvertFrom-Json
+    $output.response | Out-File -FilePath data.json -Encoding utf8
+    ```
+
+2.  Run the script:
+
+    **macOS/Linux**
+
+    ```bash
+    chmod +x generate_json.sh
+    ./generate_json.sh
+    ```
+
+    **Windows (PowerShell)**
+
+    ```powershell
+    .\generate_json.ps1
+    ```
+
+3.  Check `data.json`. The file should look like this:
+
+    ```json
+    {
+      "version": "1.0.0",
+      "deps": {
+        "react": "^18.2.0"
+      }
+    }
+    ```
+
+## Build your own custom AI tools
+
+Use headless mode to perform custom, automated AI tasks.
+
+### Scenario: Create a "Smart Commit" alias
+
+You can add a function to your shell configuration to create a `git commit`
+wrapper that writes the message for you.
+
+**macOS/Linux (Bash/Zsh)**
+
+1.  Open your `.zshrc` file (or `.bashrc` if you use Bash) in your preferred
+    text editor.
+
+    ```bash
+    nano ~/.zshrc
+    ```
+
+    **Note**: If you use VS Code, you can run `code ~/.zshrc`.
+
+2.  Scroll to the very bottom of the file and paste this code:
+
+    ```bash
+    function gcommit() {
+      # Get the diff of staged changes
+      diff=$(git diff --staged)
+
+      if [ -z "$diff" ]; then
+        echo "No staged changes to commit."
+        return 1
+      fi
+
+      # Ask Gemini to write the message
+      echo "Generating commit message..."
+      msg=$(echo "$diff" | gemini "Write a concise Conventional Commit message for this diff. Output ONLY the message.")
+
+      # Commit with the generated message
+      git commit -m "$msg"
+    }
+    ```
+
+    Save your file and exit.
+
+3.  Run this command to make the function available immediately:
+
+    ```bash
+    source ~/.zshrc
+    ```
+
+**Windows (PowerShell)**
+
+1.  Open your PowerShell profile in your preferred text editor.
+
+    ```powershell
+    notepad $PROFILE
+    ```
+
+2.  Scroll to the very bottom of the file and paste this code:
+
+    ```powershell
+    function gcommit {
+      # Get the diff of staged changes
+      $diff = git diff --staged
+
+      if (-not $diff) {
+        Write-Host "No staged changes to commit."
+        return
+      }
+
+      # Ask Gemini to write the message
+      Write-Host "Generating commit message..."
+      $msg = $diff | gemini "Write a concise Conventional Commit message for this diff. Output ONLY the message."
+
+      # Commit with the generated message
+      git commit -m "$msg"
+    }
+    ```
+
+    Save your file and exit.
+
+3.  Run this command to make the function available immediately:
+
+    ```powershell
+    . $PROFILE
+    ```
+
+4.  Use your new command:
+
+    ```bash
+    gcommit
+    ```
+
+    Gemini CLI will analyze your staged changes and commit them with a generated
+    message.

+you'll learn how to provide Gemini CLI with files and directories, modify and
+create files, and control what Gemini CLI can see.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Gemini CLI installed and authenticated.
+- A project directory to work with (e.g., a git repository).
+
+## How to give the agent context (Reading files)
+
+Gemini CLI will generally try to read relevant files, sometimes prompting you
+for access (depending on your settings). To ensure that Gemini CLI uses a file,
+you can also include it directly.
+
+### Direct file inclusion (`@`)
+
+If you know the path to the file you want to work on, use the `@` symbol. This
+forces the CLI to read the file immediately and inject its content into your
+prompt.
+
+```bash
+`@src/components/UserProfile.tsx Explain how this component handles user data.`
+```
+
+### Working with multiple files
+
+Complex features often span multiple files. You can chain `@` references to give
+the agent a complete picture of the dependencies.
+
+```bash
+`@src/components/UserProfile.tsx @src/types/User.ts Refactor the component to use the updated User interface.`
+```
+
+### Including entire directories
+
+For broad questions or refactoring, you can include an entire directory. Be
+careful with large folders, as this consumes more tokens.
+
+```bash
+`@src/utils/ Check these utility functions for any deprecated API usage.`
+```
+
+## How to find files (Exploration)
+
+If you _don't_ know the exact file path, you can ask Gemini CLI to find it for
+you. This is useful when navigating a new codebase or looking for specific
+logic.
+
+### Scenario: Find a component definition
+
+You know there's a `UserProfile` component, but you don't know where it lives.
+
+```none
+`Find the file that defines the UserProfile component.`
+```
+
+Gemini uses the `glob` or `list_directory` tools to search your project
+structure. It will return the specific path (e.g.,
+`src/components/UserProfile.tsx`), which you can then use with `@` in your next
+turn.
+
+> **Tip:** You can also ask for lists of files, like "Show me all the TypeScript
+> configuration files in the root directory."
+
+## How to modify code
+
+Once Gemini CLI has context, you can direct it to make specific edits. The agent
+is capable of complex refactoring, not just simple text replacement.
+
+```none
+`Update @src/components/UserProfile.tsx to show a loading spinner if the user data is null.`
+```
+
+Gemini CLI uses the `replace` tool to propose a targeted code change.
+
+### Creating new files
+
+You can also ask the agent to create entirely new files or folder structures.
+
+```none
+`Create a new file @src/components/LoadingSpinner.tsx with a simple Tailwind CSS spinner.`
+```
+
+Gemini CLI uses the `write_file` tool to generate the new file from scratch.
+
+## Review and confirm changes
+
+Gemini CLI prioritizes safety. Before any file is modified, it presents a
+unified diff of the proposed changes.
+
+```diff
+- if (!user) return null;
++ if (!user) return <LoadingSpinner />;
+```
+
+- **Red lines (-):** Code that will be removed.
+- **Green lines (+):** Code that will be added.
+
+Press **y** to confirm and apply the change to your local file system. If the
+diff doesn't look right, press **n** to cancel and refine your prompt.
+
+## Verify the result
+
+After the edit is complete, verify the fix. You can simply read the file again
+or, better yet, run your project's tests.
+
+```none
+`Run the tests for the UserProfile component.`
+```
+
+Gemini CLI uses the `run_shell_command` tool to execute your test runner (e.g.,
+`npm test` or `jest`). This ensures the changes didn't break existing
+functionality.
+
+## Advanced: Controlling what Gemini sees
+
+By default, Gemini CLI respects your `.gitignore` file. It won't read or search
+through `node_modules`, build artifacts, or other ignored paths.
+
+If you have sensitive files (like `.env`) or large assets that you want to keep
+hidden from the AI _without_ ignoring them in Git, you can create a
+`.geminiignore` file in your project root.
+
+**Example `.geminiignore`:**
+
+```text
+.env
+local-db-dump.sql
+private-notes.md
+```

+# Set up an MCP server
+
+Connect Gemini CLI to your external databases and services. In this guide,
+you'll learn how to extend Gemini CLI's capabilities by installing the GitHub
+MCP server and using it to manage your repositories.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Gemini CLI installed.
+- **Docker:** Required for this specific example (many MCP servers run as Docker
+  containers).
+- **GitHub token:** A Personal Access Token (PAT) with repo permissions.
+
+## How to prepare your credentials
+
+Most MCP servers require authentication. For GitHub, you need a PAT.
+
+1.  Create a [fine-grained PAT](https://github.com/settings/tokens?type=beta).
+2.  Grant it **Read** access to **Metadata** and **Contents**, and
+    **Read/Write** access to **Issues** and **Pull Requests**.
+3.  Store it in your environment:
+
+**macOS/Linux**
+
+```bash
+export GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN="github_pat_..."
+```
+
+**Windows (PowerShell)**
+
+```powershell
+$env:GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN="github_pat_..."
+```
+
+## How to configure Gemini CLI
+
+You tell Gemini about new servers by editing your `settings.json`.
+
+1.  Open `~/.gemini/settings.json` (or the project-specific
+    `.gemini/settings.json`).
+2.  Add the `mcpServers` block. This tells Gemini: "Run this docker container
+    and talk to it."
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "github": {
+      "command": "docker",
+      "args": [
+        "run",
+        "-i",
+        "--rm",
+        "-e",
+        "GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN",
+        "ghcr.io/modelcontextprotocol/servers/github:latest"
+      ],
+      "env": {
+        "GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN": "${GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN}"
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+> **Note:** The `command` is `docker`, and the rest are arguments passed to it.
+> We map the local environment variable into the container so your secret isn't
+> hardcoded in the config file.
+
+## How to verify the connection
+
+Restart Gemini CLI. It will automatically try to start the defined servers.
+
+**Command:** `/mcp list`
+
+You should see: `✓ github: docker ... - Connected`
+
+If you see `Disconnected` or an error, check that Docker is running and your API
+token is valid.
+
+## How to use the new tools
+
+Now that the server is running, the agent has new capabilities ("tools"). You
+don't need to learn special commands; just ask in natural language.
+
+### Scenario: Listing pull requests
+
+**Prompt:** `List the open PRs in the google/gemini-cli repository.`
+
+The agent will:
+
+1.  Recognize the request matches a GitHub tool.
+2.  Call `github_list_pull_requests`.
+3.  Present the data to you.
+
+### Scenario: Creating an issue
+
+**Prompt:**
+`Create an issue in my repo titled "Bug: Login fails" with the description "See logs".`
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- **Server won't start?** Try running the docker command manually in your
+  terminal to see if it prints an error (e.g., "image not found").
+- **Tools not found?** Run `/mcp refresh` to force the CLI to re-query the
+  server for its capabilities.
+
+## Next steps
+
+- Explore the [MCP servers reference](../../tools/mcp-server.md) to learn about
+  SSE and HTTP transports for remote servers.
+- Browse the
+  [official MCP server list](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers) to
+  find connectors for Slack, Postgres, Google Drive, and more.

+# Manage context and memory
+
+Control what Gemini CLI knows about you and your projects. In this guide, you'll
+learn how to define project-wide rules with `GEMINI.md`, teach the agent
+persistent facts, and inspect the active context.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Gemini CLI installed and authenticated.
+- A project directory where you want to enforce specific rules.
+
+## Why manage context?
+
+Out of the box, Gemini CLI is smart but generic. It doesn't know your preferred
+testing framework, your indentation style, or that you hate using `any` in
+TypeScript. Context management solves this by giving the agent persistent
+memory.
+
+You'll use these features when you want to:
+
+- **Enforce standards:** Ensure every generated file matches your team's style
+  guide.
+- **Set a persona:** Tell the agent to act as a "Senior Rust Engineer" or "QA
+  Specialist."
+- **Remember facts:** Save details like "My database port is 5432" so you don't
+  have to repeat them.
+
+## How to define project-wide rules (GEMINI.md)
+
+The most powerful way to control the agent's behavior is through `GEMINI.md`
+files. These are Markdown files containing instructions that are automatically
+loaded into every conversation.
+
+### Scenario: Create a project context file
+
+1.  In the root of your project, create a file named `GEMINI.md`.
+
+2.  Add your instructions:
+
+    ```markdown
+    # Project Instructions
+
+    - **Framework:** We use React with Vite.
+    - **Styling:** Use Tailwind CSS for all styling. Do not write custom CSS.
+    - **Testing:** All new components must include a Vitest unit test.
+    - **Tone:** Be concise. Don't explain basic React concepts.
+    ```
+
+3.  Start a new session. Gemini CLI will now know these rules automatically.
+
+### Scenario: Using the hierarchy
+
+Context is loaded hierarchically. This allows you to have general rules for
+everything and specific rules for sub-projects.
+
+1.  **Global:** `~/.gemini/GEMINI.md` (Rules for _every_ project you work on).
+2.  **Project Root:** `./GEMINI.md` (Rules for the current repository).
+3.  **Subdirectory:** `./src/GEMINI.md` (Rules specific to the `src` folder).
+
+**Example:** You might set "Always use strict typing" in your global config, but
+"Use Python 3.11" only in your backend repository.
+
+## How to teach the agent facts (Memory)
+
+Sometimes you don't want to write a config file. You just want to tell the agent
+something once and have it remember forever. You can do this naturally in chat.
+
+### Scenario: Saving a memory
+
+Just tell the agent to remember something.
+
+**Prompt:** `Remember that I prefer using 'const' over 'let' wherever possible.`
+
+The agent will use the `save_memory` tool to store this fact in your global
+memory file.
+
+**Prompt:** `Save the fact that the staging server IP is 10.0.0.5.`
+
+### Scenario: Using memory in conversation
+
+Once a fact is saved, you don't need to invoke it explicitly. The agent "knows"
+it.
+
+**Next Prompt:** `Write a script to deploy to staging.`
+
+**Agent Response:** "I'll write a script to deploy to **10.0.0.5**..."
+
+## How to manage and inspect context
+
+As your project grows, you might want to see exactly what instructions the agent
+is following.
+
+### Scenario: View active context
+
+To see the full, concatenated set of instructions currently loaded (from all
+`GEMINI.md` files and saved memories), use the `/memory show` command.
+
+**Command:** `/memory show`
+
+This prints the raw text the model receives at the start of the session. It's
+excellent for debugging why the agent might be ignoring a rule.
+
+### Scenario: Refresh context
+
+If you edit a `GEMINI.md` file while a session is running, the agent won't know
+immediately. Force a reload with:
+
+**Command:** `/memory refresh`
+
+## Best practices
+
+- **Keep it focused:** Don't dump your entire internal wiki into `GEMINI.md`.
+  Keep instructions actionable and relevant to code generation.
+- **Use negative constraints:** Explicitly telling the agent what _not_ to do
+  (e.g., "Do not use class components") is often more effective than vague
+  positive instructions.
+- **Review often:** Periodically check your `GEMINI.md` files to remove outdated
+  rules.
+
+## Next steps
+
+- Learn about [Session management](session-management.md) to see how short-term
+  history works.
+- Explore the [Command reference](../../reference/commands.md) for more
+  `/memory` options.
+- Read the technical spec for [Project context](../../cli/gemini-md.md).

+# Manage sessions and history
+
+Resume, browse, and rewind your conversations with Gemini CLI. In this guide,
+you'll learn how to switch between tasks, manage your session history, and undo
+mistakes using the rewind feature.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Gemini CLI installed and authenticated.
+- At least one active or past session.
+
+## How to resume where you left off
+
+It's common to switch context—maybe you're waiting for a build and want to work
+on a different feature. Gemini makes it easy to jump back in.
+
+### Scenario: Resume the last session
+
+The fastest way to pick up your most recent work is with the `--resume` flag (or
+`-r`).
+
+```bash
+gemini -r
+```
+
+This restores your chat history and memory, so you can say "Continue with the
+next step" immediately.
+
+### Scenario: Browse past sessions
+
+If you want to find a specific conversation from yesterday, use the interactive
+browser.
+
+**Command:** `/resume`
+
+This opens a searchable list of all your past sessions. You'll see:
+
+- A timestamp (e.g., "2 hours ago").
+- The first user message (helping you identify the topic).
+- The number of turns in the conversation.
+
+Select a session and press **Enter** to load it.
+
+## How to manage your workspace
+
+Over time, you'll accumulate a lot of history. Keeping your session list clean
+helps you find what you need.
+
+### Scenario: Deleting sessions
+
+In the `/resume` browser, navigate to a session you no longer need and press
+**x**. This permanently deletes the history for that specific conversation.
+
+You can also manage sessions from the command line:
+
+```bash
+# List all sessions with their IDs
+gemini --list-sessions
+
+# Delete a specific session by ID or index
+gemini --delete-session 1
+```
+
+## How to rewind time (Undo mistakes)
+
+Gemini CLI's **Rewind** feature is like `Ctrl+Z` for your workflow.
+
+### Scenario: Triggering rewind
+
+At any point in a chat, type `/rewind` or press **Esc** twice.
+
+### Scenario: Choosing a restore point
+
+You'll see a list of your recent interactions. Select the point _before_ the
+undesired changes occurred.
+
+### Scenario: Choosing what to revert
+
+Gemini gives you granular control over the undo process. You can choose to:
+
+1.  **Rewind conversation:** Only remove the chat history. The files stay
+    changed. (Useful if the code is good but the chat got off track).
+2.  **Revert code changes:** Keep the chat history but undo the file edits.
+    (Useful if you want to keep the context but retry the implementation).
+3.  **Rewind both:** Restore everything to exactly how it was.
+
+## How to fork conversations
+
+Sometimes you want to try two different approaches to the same problem.
+
+1.  Start a session and get to a decision point.
+2.  Save the current state with `/chat save decision-point`.
+3.  Try your first approach.
+4.  Later, use `/chat resume decision-point` to fork the conversation back to
+    that moment and try a different approach.
+
+This creates a new branch of history without losing your original work.
+
+## Next steps
+
+- Learn about [Checkpointing](../../cli/checkpointing.md) to understand the
+  underlying safety mechanism.
+- Explore [Task planning](task-planning.md) to keep complex sessions organized.
+- See the [Command reference](../../reference/commands.md) for all `/chat` and
+  `/resume` options.

+# Execute shell commands
+
+Use the CLI to run builds, manage git, and automate system tasks without leaving
+the conversation. In this guide, you'll learn how to run commands directly,
+automate complex workflows, and manage background processes safely.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Gemini CLI installed and authenticated.
+- Basic familiarity with your system's shell (Bash, Zsh, PowerShell, etc.).
+
+## How to run commands directly (`!`)
+
+Sometimes you just need to check a file size or git status without asking the AI
+to do it for you. You can pass commands directly to your shell using the `!`
+prefix.
+
+**Example:** `!ls -la`
+
+This executes `ls -la` immediately and prints the output to your terminal. The
+AI doesn't "see" this output unless you paste it back into the chat or use it in
+a prompt.
+
+### Scenario: Entering Shell mode
+
+If you're doing a lot of manual work, toggle "Shell Mode" by typing `!` and
+pressing **Enter**. Now, everything you type is sent to the shell until you exit
+(usually by pressing **Esc** or typing `exit`).
+
+## How to automate complex tasks
+
+You can automate tasks using a combination of Gemini CLI and shell commands.
+
+### Scenario: Run tests and fix failures
+
+You want to run tests and fix any failures.
+
+**Prompt:**
+`Run the unit tests. If any fail, analyze the error and try to fix the code.`
+
+**Workflow:**
+
+1.  Gemini calls `run_shell_command('npm test')`.
+2.  You see a confirmation prompt: `Allow command 'npm test'? [y/N]`.
+3.  You press `y`.
+4.  The tests run. If they fail, Gemini reads the error output.
+5.  Gemini uses `read_file` to inspect the failing test.
+6.  Gemini uses `replace` to fix the bug.
+7.  Gemini runs `npm test` again to verify the fix.
+
+This loop turns Gemini into an autonomous engineer.
+
+## How to manage background processes
+
+You can ask Gemini to start long-running tasks, like development servers or file
+watchers.
+
+**Prompt:** `Start the React dev server in the background.`
+
+Gemini will run the command (e.g., `npm run dev`) and detach it.
+
+### Scenario: Viewing active shells
+
+To see what's running in the background, use the `/shells` command.
+
+**Command:** `/shells`
+
+This opens a dashboard where you can view logs or kill runaway processes.
+
+## How to handle interactive commands
+
+Gemini CLI attempts to handle interactive commands (like `git add -p` or
+confirmation prompts) by streaming the output to you. However, for highly
+interactive tools (like `vim` or `top`), it's often better to run them yourself
+in a separate terminal window or use the `!` prefix.
+
+## Safety first
+
+Giving an AI access to your shell is powerful but risky. Gemini CLI includes
+several safety layers.
+
+### Confirmation prompts
+
+By default, **every** shell command requested by the agent requires your
+explicit approval.
+
+- **Allow once:** Runs the command one time.
+- **Allow always:** Trusts this specific command for the rest of the session.
+- **Deny:** Stops the agent.
+
+### Sandboxing
+
+For maximum security, especially when running untrusted code or exploring new
+projects, we strongly recommend enabling Sandboxing. This runs all shell
+commands inside a secure Docker container.
+
+**Enable sandboxing:** Use the `--sandbox` flag when starting the CLI:
+`gemini --sandbox`.
+
+## Next steps
+
+- Learn about [Sandboxing](../../cli/sandbox.md) to safely run destructive
+  commands.
+- See the [Shell tool reference](../../tools/shell.md) for configuration options
+  like timeouts and working directories.
+- Explore [Task planning](task-planning.md) to see how shell commands fit into
+  larger workflows.

+# Plan tasks with todos
+
+Keep complex jobs on the rails with Gemini CLI's built-in task planning. In this
+guide, you'll learn how to ask for a plan, execute it step-by-step, and monitor
+progress with the todo list.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Gemini CLI installed and authenticated.
+- A complex task in mind (e.g., a multi-file refactor or new feature).
+
+## Why use task planning?
+
+Standard LLMs have a limited context window and can "forget" the original goal
+after 10 turns of code generation. Task planning provides:
+
+1.  **Visibility:** You see exactly what the agent plans to do _before_ it
+    starts.
+2.  **Focus:** The agent knows exactly which step it's working on right now.
+3.  **Resilience:** If the agent gets stuck, the plan helps it get back on
+    track.
+
+## How to ask for a plan
+
+The best way to trigger task planning is to explicitly ask for it.
+
+**Prompt:**
+`I want to migrate this project from JavaScript to TypeScript. Please make a plan first.`
+
+Gemini will analyze your codebase and use the `write_todos` tool to generate a
+structured list.
+
+**Example Plan:**
+
+1.  [ ] Create `tsconfig.json`.
+2.  [ ] Rename `.js` files to `.ts`.
+3.  [ ] Fix type errors in `utils.js`.
+4.  [ ] Fix type errors in `server.js`.
+5.  [ ] Verify build passes.
+
+## How to review and iterate
+
+Once the plan is generated, it appears in your CLI. Review it.
+
+- **Missing steps?** Tell the agent: "You forgot to add a step for installing
+  `@types/node`."
+- **Wrong order?** Tell the agent: "Let's verify the build _after_ each file,
+  not just at the end."
+
+The agent will update the todo list dynamically.
+
+## How to execute the plan
+
+Tell the agent to proceed.
+
+**Prompt:** `Looks good. Start with the first step.`
+
+As the agent works, you'll see the todo list update in real-time above the input
+box.
+
+- **Current focus:** The active task is highlighted (e.g.,
+  `[IN_PROGRESS] Create tsconfig.json`).
+- **Progress:** Completed tasks are marked as done.
+
+## How to monitor progress (`Ctrl+T`)
+
+For a long-running task, the full todo list might be hidden to save space. You
+can toggle the full view at any time.
+
+**Action:** Press **Ctrl+T**.
+
+This shows the complete list, including pending, in-progress, and completed
+items. It's a great way to check "how much is left?" without scrolling back up.
+
+## How to handle unexpected changes
+
+Plans change. Maybe you discover a library is incompatible halfway through.
+
+**Prompt:**
+`Actually, let's skip the 'server.js' refactor for now. It's too risky.`
+
+The agent will mark that task as `cancelled` or remove it, and move to the next
+item. This dynamic adjustment is what makes the todo system powerful—it's a
+living document, not a static text block.

+# Web search and fetch
+
+Access the live internet directly from your prompt. In this guide, you'll learn
+how to search for up-to-date documentation, fetch deep context from specific
+URLs, and apply that knowledge to your code.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Gemini CLI installed and authenticated.
+- An internet connection.
+
+## How to research new technologies
+
+Imagine you want to use a library released yesterday. The model doesn't know
+about it yet. You need to teach it.
+
+### Scenario: Find documentation
+
+**Prompt:**
+`Search for the 'Bun 1.0' release notes and summarize the key changes.`
+
+Gemini uses the `google_web_search` tool to find relevant pages and synthesizes
+an answer. This "grounding" process ensures the agent isn't hallucinating
+features that don't exist.
+
+**Prompt:** `Find the documentation for the 'React Router v7' loader API.`
+
+## How to fetch deep context
+
+Search gives you a summary, but sometimes you need the raw details. The
+`web_fetch` tool lets you feed a specific URL directly into the agent's context.
+
+### Scenario: Reading a blog post
+
+You found a blog post with the exact solution to your bug.
+
+**Prompt:**
+`Read https://example.com/fixing-memory-leaks and explain how to apply it to my code.`
+
+Gemini will retrieve the page content (stripping away ads and navigation) and
+use it to answer your question.
+
+### Scenario: Comparing sources
+
+You can even fetch multiple pages to compare approaches.
+
+**Prompt:**
+`Compare the pagination patterns in https://api.example.com/v1/docs and https://api.example.com/v2/docs.`
+
+## How to apply knowledge to code
+
+The real power comes when you combine web tools with file editing.
+
+**Workflow:**
+
+1.  **Search:** "How do I implement auth with Supabase?"
+2.  **Fetch:** "Read this guide: https://supabase.com/docs/guides/auth."
+3.  **Implement:** "Great. Now use that pattern to create an `auth.ts` file in
+    my project."
+
+## How to troubleshoot errors
+
+When you hit an obscure error message, paste it into the chat.
+
+**Prompt:**
+`I'm getting 'Error: hydration mismatch' in Next.js. Search for recent solutions.`
+
+The agent will search sources such as GitHub issues, StackOverflow, and forums
+to find relevant fixes that might be too new to be in its base training set.
+
+## Next steps
+
+- Explore [File management](file-management.md) to see how to apply the code you
+  generate.
+- See the [Web search tool reference](../../tools/web-search.md) for citation
+  details.
+- See the [Web fetch tool reference](../../tools/web-fetch.md) for technical
+  limitations.

+  the pricing table from this page," "Click the login button and enter my
+  credentials."
+
+> **Note:** This is a preview feature currently under active development.
+
+#### Prerequisites
+
+The browser agent requires:
+
+- **Chrome** version 144 or later (any recent stable release will work).
+- **Node.js** with `npx` available (used to launch the
+  [`chrome-devtools-mcp`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/chrome-devtools-mcp)
+  server).
+
+#### Enabling the browser agent
+
+The browser agent is disabled by default. Enable it in your `settings.json`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "overrides": {
+      "browser_agent": {
+        "enabled": true
+      }
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+#### Session modes
+
+The `sessionMode` setting controls how Chrome is launched and managed. Set it
+under `agents.browser`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "overrides": {
+      "browser_agent": {
+        "enabled": true
+      }
+    },
+    "browser": {
+      "sessionMode": "persistent"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+The available modes are:
+
+| Mode         | Description                                                                                                                                                                                 |
+| :----------- | :------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| `persistent` | **(Default)** Launches Chrome with a persistent profile stored at `~/.gemini/cli-browser-profile/`. Cookies, history, and settings are preserved between sessions.                          |
+| `isolated`   | Launches Chrome with a temporary profile that is deleted after each session. Use this for clean-state automation.                                                                           |
+| `existing`   | Attaches to an already-running Chrome instance. You must enable remote debugging first by navigating to `chrome://inspect/#remote-debugging` in Chrome. No new browser process is launched. |
+
+#### Configuration reference
+
+All browser-specific settings go under `agents.browser` in your `settings.json`.
+
+| Setting       | Type      | Default        | Description                                                                                     |
+| :------------ | :-------- | :------------- | :---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| `sessionMode` | `string`  | `"persistent"` | How Chrome is managed: `"persistent"`, `"isolated"`, or `"existing"`.                           |
+| `headless`    | `boolean` | `false`        | Run Chrome in headless mode (no visible window).                                                |
+| `profilePath` | `string`  | —              | Custom path to a browser profile directory.                                                     |
+| `visualModel` | `string`  | —              | Model override for the visual agent (for example, `"gemini-2.5-computer-use-preview-10-2025"`). |
+
+#### Security
+
+The browser agent enforces the following security restrictions:
+
+- **Blocked URL patterns:** `file://`, `javascript:`, `data:text/html`,
+  `chrome://extensions`, and `chrome://settings/passwords` are always blocked.
+- **Sensitive action confirmation:** Actions like form filling, file uploads,
+  and form submissions require user confirmation through the standard policy
+  engine.
+
+#### Visual agent
+
+By default, the browser agent interacts with pages through the accessibility
+tree using element `uid` values. For tasks that require visual identification
+(for example, "click the yellow button" or "find the red error message"), you
+can enable the visual agent by setting a `visualModel`:
+
+```json
+{
+  "agents": {
+    "overrides": {
+      "browser_agent": {
+        "enabled": true
+      }
+    },
+    "browser": {
+      "visualModel": "gemini-2.5-computer-use-preview-10-2025"
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+When enabled, the agent gains access to the `analyze_screenshot` tool, which
+captures a screenshot and sends it to the vision model for analysis. The model
+returns coordinates and element descriptions that the browser agent uses with
+the `click_at` tool for precise, coordinate-based interactions.
+
+> **Note:** The visual agent requires API key or Vertex AI authentication. It is
+> not available when using Google Login.
