gemini

gemini is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from davila7/claude-code-templates. It costs 53 tokens per session (2,510 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for using the Gemini command-line tool to review code, review implementation plans, and analyse very large sets of files or documents. It is intended for work that needs more than 200,000 tokens of context, where a token is a small piece of text processed by a language model.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for multi-file code reviews, architecture and plan reviews, and analysis of codebases or documentation sets that exceed a model's usual context limit.
Why use it?
It helps you examine large codebases or specifications in one review instead of splitting the work into many smaller requests. It also explains how to run automated reviews safely in non-interactive environments.

    Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.
    Fix: Remove the model/provider override or disclose it prominently and require explicit operator approval before invoking an external coding CLI or billed model.

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 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 6d 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 Skill Guide

When to Use Gemini

  • WHEN ASKED TO BE ACTIVATED
  • Code Review: Comprehensive code reviews across multiple files
  • Plan Review: Analyzing architectural plans, technical specifications, or project roadmaps
  • Big Context Processing: Tasks requiring >200k tokens of context (entire codebases, documentation sets)
  • Multi-file Analysis: Understanding relationships and patterns across many files

⚠️ Critical: Background/Non-Interactive Mode Warning

NEVER use --approval-mode default in background or non-interactive shells (like Claude Code tool calls). It will hang indefinitely waiting for approval prompts that cannot be provided.

For automated/background reviews:

  • ✅ Use --approval-mode yolo for fully automated execution
  • ✅ OR wrap with timeout: timeout 300 gemini ...
  • ❌ NEVER use --approval-mode default without interactive terminal

Symptoms of hung Gemini:

  • Process running 20+ minutes with 0% CPU usage
  • No network activity
  • Process state shows 'S' (sleeping)

Fix hung process:

# Check if hung
ps aux | grep gemini | grep -v grep

# Kill if necessary
pkill -9 -f "gemini.*gemini-3-pro-preview"

Running a Task

  1. Ask the user (via AskUserQuestion) which model to use in a single prompt. Available models:

    • gemini-3-pro-preview ⭐ (flagship model, best for coding & complex reasoning, 35% better at software engineering than 2.5 Pro)
    • gemini-3-flash (sub-second latency, distilled from 3 Pro, best for speed-critical tasks)
    • gemini-2.5-pro (legacy option, strong all-around performance)
    • gemini-2.5-flash (legacy option, cost-efficient with thinking capabilities)
    • gemini-2.5-flash-lite (legacy option, fastest processing)
  2. Select the approval mode based on the task:

    • default: Prompt for approval (⚠️ ONLY for interactive terminal sessions)
    • auto_edit: Auto-approve edit tools only (for code reviews with suggestions)
    • yolo: Auto-approve all tools (✅ REQUIRED for background/automated tasks)

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.

gemini is a skill published in the GitHub repository davila7/claude-code-templates (30,566 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 53 tokens to every session and 2,510 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-09-03.
