agent-skills: Instructions file for Gemini CLI

GEMINI.md

agent-skills GEMINI.md is an instructions file for Gemini CLI from conversiontools/agent-skills. It costs 519 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Instructions for using a hosted file-conversion service through Gemini. It can convert files between many formats and can create a custom converter when a standard one does not fit.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to turn files such as PDFs, JSON, CSVs, or audio into another format, extract tables, transcribe recordings, or create a reusable custom conversion workflow.
Why use it?
It removes the need to manually rewrite data between formats or build every conversion script from scratch.

Instructions file for Gemini CLI

Written for Gemini CLI: the file is GEMINI.md. Also seen: mentions Claude Code; mentions Codex.

This is conversiontools/agent-skills's own configuration. It tells Gemini CLI how to work on agent-skills itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything agent-skills configures →

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

agent-skills 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 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.

Conversion Tools Gemini Extension

This extension converts files between 140+ formats using Conversion Tools, via the hosted MCP server (https://mcp.conversiontools.io/mcp). It can also build a custom converter from a plain-language description when no standard converter fits.

Authentication

On first use you will be prompted to authenticate via OAuth - a browser window opens to log in to your Conversion Tools account. Free accounts get 100 conversions per month (10 per day); paid plans are at https://conversiontools.io/pricing.

Usage

Ask Gemini to convert a file and it will pick the right converter automatically:

  • "Convert data.json to Excel"
  • "Extract the table from invoice.pdf to CSV"
  • "Transcribe meeting.mp3 to text"

When no standard converter fits, ask Gemini to build one: "Build a converter that turns this CSV into JSON, one object per invoice with a nested line_items array." The studio_* tools create the converter, run it, and return the result - it persists in your account to continue on the web. Because it persists, you can reuse it later on a new file (studio_list_converters to find it, studio_attach_file to point it at the new file, then run) - no rebuild.

To pull named fields out of documents (invoices, receipts, purchase orders, statements, forms, scans), the parse_* tools drive Parse: "Extract invoice number, date, total and line items from invoice.pdf." Submission is asynchronous by design - parse_extract returns an extraction id, then parse_extraction_status is polled until the extraction is completed or failed, and parse_export turns the result into CSV or XLSX. See https://parse.conversiontools.io/docs.

For files up to 5 MB the agent passes the file base64-encoded as file_content - it reads the file directly and encodes it in-process, rather than relying on a shell base64 one-liner (some agent sandboxes block those as "command substitution"). For files over 5 MB it uses request_upload_url first, then convert_file with the returned file_id.

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.
