## Overview

Gemini CLI is Google's CLI experience for Gemini ecosystem workflows.

## Installation

```bash
npm install -g @google/gemini-cli
```

or

```bash
brew install gemini-cli
```

## ModelStack Compatibility

Gemini CLI generally uses Google-authenticated infrastructure and does not provide standard arbitrary OpenAI-compatible base URL routing in common setups.

<Warning>
  If your Gemini CLI build does not expose a custom provider endpoint option,
  direct ModelStack routing is not available.
</Warning>

## Recommended Alternative

If you want Gemini-class models through ModelStack with unified billing and routing, use an OpenAI-compatible client such as:

- Cursor
- Continue
- Cline
- Roo Code
- Aider
- Zed
