omni-cli GEMINI.md

A project guide for Omni-CLI, a Docker-based environment that lets you access several AI command-line tools through SSH or a direct container session. Docker packages the tools and their settings in an isolated environment.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when changing the Docker image, startup script, user and group mapping, SSH service, installed AI tools, or container management in Omni-CLI.
Why use it?
It explains how the container, user permissions, SSH setup, and startup scripts fit together, making changes less likely to break access or mounted files.

Install

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.

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 B, and why

omni-cli GEMINI.md scanned grade B with 1 finding 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 2d 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.

Asks for rootmediumPrivilege escalation

A mod that escalates privileges can change anything on the machine, not only the project.

* **Security:** Never run as root effectively; use `entrypoint.sh` to drop privileges or run as the `omni` user.

Omni-CLI Context

Project Overview

Omni-CLI is a Dockerized, neural interface environment designed to unify access to various AI CLI tools (Gemini, Codex, Copilot, Aider). It provides a secure, sandboxed workspace that can be accessed via SSH or direct Docker attachment. The project is built on top of a lightweight Node.js image and includes custom shell scripts for project management and tool invocation.

Architecture & Core Components

Docker Structure

  • Base Image: node:25-slim (Debian-based).
  • Multi-Stage Build: Uses a builder stage for installing global npm packages (@google/gemini-cli, etc.) to keep the final image clean.
  • User Management:
    • The default node user (UID 1000) is removed in the final stage to avoid conflicts.
    • A custom omni user is created.
    • Runtime Mapping: entrypoint.sh dynamically updates the omni user's UID/GID to match the host system (via PUID/PGID env vars), ensuring correct file permissions for mounted volumes.

Key Scripts

  • entrypoint.sh: The container entrypoint. Handles:
    • User ID mapping (usermod/groupmod).
    • SSH host key generation.
    • Directory permission fixes.
    • Starting sshd or executing command arguments.
  • omni-cli.sh: The interactive "Neural Interface".
    • A generic bash script providing a menu-driven UI.
    • Manages projects in the /data directory.
    • Wraps AI CLI tool execution.

Building and Running

Build

docker build -t omni-cli .

Run (Development/Testing)

The container is designed to be persistent. It requires mapping volumes for data and configuration.

docker run -d \
  --name omni-cli \
  -p 2222:22 \
  -v $(pwd)/omni-data:/data \
  -v $(pwd)/omni-config:/config \
  -e PUID=$(id -u) \
  -e PGID=$(id -g) \
  omni-cli

Access

  • SSH: ssh omni@localhost -p 2222 (Password: changeme or as configured).
  • Interactive Shell: The omni-cli menu launches automatically upon login (configured in .profile).

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.

omni-cli GEMINI.md is an instructions file published in the GitHub repository mabelisle/omni-cli (6 stars, last pushed 7mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 900 tokens to every session, about $0.0045 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it B with 1 finding (asks for root). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
