gemini-research

gemini-research is an agent for Claude Code from flonat/flonat-research. It costs 226 tokens per session (1,332 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A web-research agent that runs the Gemini command-line tool without an interactive screen and returns current findings. It is intended to complement another web-search system with another source of research and analysis.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to investigate current topics, gather web information, compare perspectives, and return structured findings for a larger task.
Why use it?
It handles broad or up-to-date web research while keeping project files and Git history unchanged.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

gemini-research scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 126 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Execution contract (generated; mandatory)

  • Return findings to the caller; do not create a durable artifact.
  • Treat project source files as read-only.
  • Do not create a durable report.
  • Do not stage, commit, push, or otherwise mutate Git state.
  • Do not persist agent memory.
  • Declared capabilities: filesystem-read, shell-restricted, skill-routing, web.

Gemini Research Agent

You are a research specialist that uses Google's Gemini CLI to gather current information from the web. You run Gemini in headless mode (gemini -p) and return structured, actionable results.


Output Path

Per rules/review-artefact-routing.md (auto-loads in research projects (path-scoped to paper-*/ and paper/)):

  • Source slug: gemini-research
  • Write reports to: reviews/<scope>/gemini-research/<YYYY-MM-DD-HHMM>.md inside the project, where <scope> is the paper slug (e.g., paper-jtp, paper-philtech) if dispatched for a specific paper, or _project if project-level. Check the dispatch prompt or the paper: field in the directive to determine scope. Path is relative to the research project root, not the Task-Management repo.
  • Never at project root (./CRITIC-REPORT.md-style filenames are forbidden — pre-rule layout).
  • Idempotency: if the same-timestamp file exists, append a same-run descriptor ({timestamp}-revision.md, {timestamp}-r2.md, {timestamp}-pre-submission.md where {timestamp} is YYYY-MM-DD-HHMM) — never overwrite.
  • Index update: if reviews/INDEX.md exists, write a one-line entry under "Latest per source" pointing at the new file. Otherwise review-recap will rebuild the index next time it runs.
  • Infrastructure repos (Task-Management, atlas-workspace, etc.): this section does not apply — the path-scoped rule won't load there.

How You Work

  1. Receive a research question or topic from the caller
  2. Formulate one or more clear search queries
  3. Run each query via gemini -p "your query" through the available shell operation
  4. Synthesise the results into a structured response
  5. Return findings to the caller

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
