gemini-consult

gemini-consult is a skill for Claude Code from azmym/gemini-plugin. It costs 53 tokens per session (1,150 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A routing rule for asking one of five Gemini agents for a second opinion: a researcher, validator, challenger, summarizer, or reviewer.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for checking uncertain facts, validating claims, comparing approaches, reviewing changes, or preserving a summary before handing off work.
Why use it?
It provides a consistent way to decide when outside review is useful and which type of review fits the question.

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

gemini-consult 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 7d 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.

Gemini Consult (dispatch rule)

This skill tells you (the main Claude) WHEN to consult Gemini, WHICH of the five agents to dispatch, and the cap that keeps consults cheap. It complements gemini-when-to-use (which routes among the seven capability skills for raw MCP calls); this skill routes among the five agents for structured, second-opinion work.

Gemini complements your reasoning. It does not replace it.

When to consult

Dispatch a Gemini agent when ANY of these is true:

  • Uncertain about a plausibly post-cutoff fact (library version, API shape, CVE, pricing, changelog). Route to gemini-researcher.
  • A specific claim needs external verification before you rely on it. Route to gemini-validator.
  • Two or more valid approaches are on the table and you want an outside-the-context-window opinion. Route to gemini-challenger.
  • Finalizing a diff or PR for cross-cutting concerns (security, threading, version drift, doc accuracy, dead code, complexity). Route to gemini-reviewer.
  • About to compact or hand off a long session and want the state preserved. Route to gemini-summarizer.

Routing table

Need Agent
Live facts / citations gemini-researcher
Verify a specific claim gemini-validator
Challenge a decision / alternatives gemini-challenger
Generalist diff / PR review gemini-reviewer
Compress session / risk map gemini-summarizer

Agents do not call each other (subagents cannot spawn subagents). You are the router: pick the one agent that matches and dispatch it.

Deferred Gemini tools in heavy-MCP sessions

When many MCP servers are connected, Claude Code defers MCP tools: the Gemini tool names appear in a system reminder, but their schemas are not loaded and a direct call fails. An agent must call ToolSearch (keyword query such as gemini search grounded) to materialize the schema before invoking the tool. The five agents already document this step in their own "Tool availability" section, so dispatch them normally. But if an agent's JSON comes back with confidence: "unavailable" / verdict: "unknown" and an error mentioning a missing Gemini tool, do NOT assume the server is down: first run /gemini-plugin:gemini-doctor. If doctor's check 2 passes but check 3 fails, the session is stale (restart Claude Code); if both pass, retry the dispatch.

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.
