Decision note

Gemini CLI is an open-source command-line tool for AI-assisted coding, built by Google (released 2025-06). Gemini CLI's verified model list is still being expanded, so this page emphasizes bring-your-own model access, runtime shape, pricing, and deployment control. It's free and open source. Engineers run it from a terminal, where it can inspect repositories, edit files, call tools, and drive repeatable agentic coding workflows across local projects.
