.gemini/commands/frontend.toml

frontend is a command for Gemini CLI from google-gemini/gemini-cli. It costs 0 tokens per session (592 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command that supplies an AI agent with the source code of the Gemini CLI and selected core files, plus representative UI tests, as working context.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when working on CLI frontend code, especially UI components, application behavior, and related core tool-scheduling code.
Why use it?
It reduces the need for repeated repository searches and helps the agent follow the project's established TypeScript, React, and testing patterns.

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

frontend 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

description="Injects context of all relevant cli files" prompt = """ The source code contains the content of absolutely every source code file in packages/cli and key files from packages/core. In addition to the source code, the following test files are included as they are test files that conform to the project's testing standards: packages/cli/src/ui/components/InputPrompt.test.tsx and packages/cli/src/ui/App.test.tsx. You should very rarely need to read any other files from packages/cli to resolve prompts.

Pay extremely close attention to these files. They define the project's core architecture, component patterns, and testing standards.

In addition to the code context, you MUST strictly adhere to the following frontend-specific development guidelines while adding code to packages/cli.
