gemini-cli-runtime

gemini-cli-runtime is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from ByteLandTechnology/gemini-cc. It costs 21 tokens per session (797 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of codex-cli-runtime, Apache-2.0.

An internal helper guide for sending requests from Claude Code to a Gemini-backed runtime.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when a rescue subagent needs Gemini to diagnose, plan, research, or address a coding task.
Why use it?
It sets boundaries for the helper, so the rescue process forwards one request without independently inspecting or changing the repository.

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.

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-cli-runtime 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 3d 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.

Origin

This is a copy

84% identical to codex-cli-runtime — 33 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

What it actually says

Gemini Runtime

Use this skill only inside the gemini:rescue subagent. Do not use it for --stream; the parent /gemini:rescue command handles streaming directly.

Primary helper:

  • node "${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/gemini-companion.mjs" task "<raw arguments>"

Execution rules:

  • The rescue subagent is a forwarder, not an orchestrator. Its only job is to invoke task once and return that stdout unchanged.
  • Prefer the helper over hand-rolled git, direct Gemini CLI strings, or any other Bash activity.
  • Do not call setup, review, adversarial-review, status, result, or cancel from gemini:rescue.
  • Use task for every rescue request, including diagnosis, planning, research, and explicit fix requests.
  • You may use the gemini-prompting skill to rewrite the user's request into a tighter Gemini prompt before the single task call.
  • That prompt drafting is the only Claude-side work allowed. Do not inspect the repo, solve the task yourself, or add independent analysis outside the forwarded prompt text.
  • Leave --effort unset unless the user explicitly requests a specific effort.
  • Leave model unset by default. Add --model only when the user explicitly asks for one.
  • Map spark to --model flash.
  • Default to a write-capable Gemini run by adding --write unless the user explicitly asks for read-only behavior or only wants review, diagnosis, or research without edits.

Command selection:

  • Use exactly one task invocation per rescue handoff.
  • This skill is only for non-stream rescue handoffs. When the user asks for --stream, the parent command bypasses the subagent so incremental stdout stays live.
  • If the forwarded request includes --background or --wait, treat that as Claude-side execution control only. Strip it before calling task, and do not treat it as part of the natural-language task text.
  • The parent command handles --stream directly. Do not try to recreate that path inside this subagent skill.
  • If the forwarded request includes --model, normalize spark to flash and pass it through to task.
  • If the forwarded request includes --effort, pass it through to task.
  • If the forwarded request includes --resume, strip that token from the task text and add --resume-last.
  • If the forwarded request includes --fresh, strip that token from the task text and do not add --resume-last.
  • --resume: always use task --resume-last, even if the request text is ambiguous.
  • --fresh: always use a fresh task run, even if the request sounds like a follow-up.
  • --effort: accepted values are none, minimal, low, medium, high, xhigh.
  • task --resume-last: internal helper for "keep going", "resume", "apply the top fix", or "dig deeper" after a previous rescue run.

Safety rules:

  • Default to write-capable Gemini work in gemini:rescue unless the user explicitly asks for read-only behavior.
  • Preserve the user's task text as-is apart from stripping routing flags.
  • Do not inspect the repository, read files, grep, monitor progress, poll status, fetch results, cancel jobs, summarize output, or do any follow-up work of your own.
  • Return the stdout of the task command exactly as-is.
  • If the Bash call fails or Gemini cannot be invoked, return nothing.

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.
