terminalAgent GEMINI.md

terminalAgent GEMINI.md is an instructions file for Gemini CLI from 21pounder/terminalAgent. It costs 768 tokens per session, scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Project instructions for a terminal-based coding assistant called Terminal Coding Agent. They describe its Node.js and TypeScript setup, its use of the Claude Agent SDK, and its Markdown-based skills system.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use them when working on the Terminal Coding Agent's source code, command-line entry point, SDK integration, or skill-loading system. The excerpt does not provide more specific tasks.
Why use it?
They give the coding assistant the project context needed to understand the architecture and use the repository's conventions. This avoids making changes without knowing how the command-line tool and its skills are organized.

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

terminalAgent GEMINI.md 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 4d 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.

Terminal Coding Agent (Gemini Context)

This document provides context for the Gemini AI agent to understand and interact with the Terminal Coding Agent project.

Project Overview

Name: Terminal Coding Agent Version: 5.0.0 Purpose: A terminal coding assistant powered directly by the official Claude Agent SDK. It enables natural language coding tasks and supports custom "Skills" defined via Markdown. Core Technology:

  • Runtime: Node.js (TypeScript).
  • Engine: @anthropic-ai/claude-agent-sdk.
  • Skill System: Doc-based skills (Markdown definitions in .claude/skills/).

Architecture & Design

This version (v5) moves away from custom tool loops and raw API calls, fully embracing the official SDK.

Key Components

  • src/index.ts: The CLI entry point.
    • Initializes the SDK query() function.
    • Handles "Smart Input" (files references with @, command completion).
    • Dynamically loads skills from .claude/skills directories.
  • Skills System (.claude/skills/):
    • Skills are defined as directories containing a SKILL.md file.
    • The SDK reads these definitions and injects them as capabilities into the agent context.
    • This allows for "Low-Code" skill creation (Prompt Engineering vs. Coding).
  • UI (src/ui/):
    • Custom TUI components for input, banners, and message formatting.

Usage

Interaction Modes

  1. Natural Language:

    • "Refactor src/index.ts to use a class."
    • "Explain the authentication logic."
  2. Skill Invocation:

    • Slash commands (e.g., /deep-research, /code-migrate) are routed to the specific skill defined in .claude/skills/.
    • The agent uses the prompt instructions in SKILL.md to execute the task.
  3. File Context:

    • Use @filename to explicitly attach files to the context (e.g., "Fix the bug in src/utils.ts").

Directory Structure

  • deepresearch/
    • .claude/skills/: (User-defined) Collection of skill directories (e.g., code-migrate/SKILL.md).
    • src/
      • index.ts: Main logic and SDK integration.
      • ui/: UI components.
    • bin/: Executable entry points.

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.
