rescue

rescue is a command for coding agents from m-ghalib/gemini-plugin-cc. It costs 19 tokens per session (1,085 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A command that sends an investigation or fix request to a Gemini rescue assistant. The request can run immediately or in the background.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to delegate debugging, repository investigation, explicit fixes, or follow-up rescue tasks to Gemini.
Why use it?
It gives the main coding session another assistant to investigate problems or carry out follow-up work when needed.

Command

Installs and runs on its own, but its text points at files inside its plugin — anything it tells you to read at a ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} path is only there once the plugin is installed. Installing the plugin gets both.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

npx agentmods add commands/m-ghalib/gemini-plugin-cc/rescue
Clone the repo
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/m-ghalib/gemini-plugin-cc

Or install gemini, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 3 skills, 7 commands, 1 agent, 3 hooks.

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

rescue 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 5d 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 — 52 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Invoke the gemini:gemini-rescue subagent via the Agent tool (subagent_type: "gemini:gemini-rescue"), forwarding the raw user request as the prompt.

gemini:gemini-rescue is a subagent, not a skill — do not call Skill(gemini:rescue) (no such skill) or Skill(gemini-rescue) (that re-enters this command and hangs the session). The command runs inline so the Agent tool stays in scope; forked general-purpose subagents do not expose it.

Raw user request: $ARGUMENTS

Execution mode:

  • If the request includes --background, run the gemini:gemini-rescue subagent in the background.
  • If the request includes --wait, run the gemini:gemini-rescue subagent in the foreground.
  • If neither flag is present, default to foreground.
  • --background and --wait are execution flags for Claude Code. Do not forward them to task, and do not treat them as part of the natural-language task text.
  • --model, --effort, and --plan are runtime-selection flags. Preserve them for the forwarded task call, but do not treat them as part of the natural-language task text.
  • If the request includes --resume, do not ask whether to continue. The user already chose.
  • If the request includes --fresh, do not ask whether to continue. The user already chose.
  • Otherwise, before starting Gemini, check for a resumable rescue thread from this Claude session by running:
node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/gemini-companion.mjs" task-resume-candidate --json
  • If that helper reports available: true, use AskUserQuestion exactly once to ask whether to continue the current Gemini thread or start a new one.
  • The two choices must be:
    • Continue current Gemini thread
    • Start a new Gemini thread
  • If the user is clearly giving a follow-up instruction such as "continue", "keep going", "resume", "apply the top fix", or "dig deeper", put Continue current Gemini thread (Recommended) first.
  • Otherwise put Start a new Gemini thread (Recommended) first.
  • If the user chooses continue, add --resume before routing to the subagent.
  • If the user chooses a new thread, add --fresh before routing to the subagent.
  • If the helper reports available: false, do not ask. Route normally.

Operating rules:

  • The subagent is a thin forwarder only. It should use one Bash call to invoke node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/gemini-companion.mjs" task ... and return that command's stdout as-is.
  • Return the Gemini companion stdout verbatim to the user.
  • Do not paraphrase, summarize, rewrite, or add commentary before or after it.
  • Do not ask the subagent to inspect files, monitor progress, poll /gemini:status, fetch /gemini:result, call /gemini:cancel, summarize output, or do follow-up work of its own.
  • Leave --effort unset unless the user explicitly asks for a specific reasoning effort. Note: the flag is accepted but has no effect yet (pending upstream ACP support for thinkingLevel).
  • Leave the model unset unless the user explicitly asks for one. Accept Gemini model aliases: pro, pro-3, flash, flash-lite, 2.5-pro, auto. Pass concrete model IDs through unchanged.
  • --plan maps to Gemini's --approval-mode plan (read-only planning run). Without --plan, the companion defaults to --yolo --sandbox (Gemini CLI built-in sandbox, filesystem scoped to the working tree).
  • Leave --resume and --fresh in the forwarded request. The subagent handles that routing when it builds the task command.
  • If the helper reports that Gemini is missing or unauthenticated, stop and tell the user to run /gemini:setup.
  • If the user did not supply a request, ask what Gemini should investigate or fix.
  • When the rescue is exploratory or diagnostic (e.g., "where is X used?", "trace this flow", "why is this failing?"), the forwarded prompt should suggest that Gemini reach for its built-in codebase_investigator subagent before drafting a fix — it ships with the codebase-investigation skill and is already configured to use gemini-3.1-pro-preview.

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.

rescue is a command published in the GitHub repository m-ghalib/gemini-plugin-cc (19 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 19 tokens to every session and 1,085 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
