gemini is a skill for Claude Code from tonydzi/second-brain-starter-kit. It costs 105 tokens per session (1,323 once invoked), scanned B, original, MIT.

A coding helper that uses Google Gemini as an independent third reviewer alongside other AI reviewers. It can inspect code changes and act as a testing critic after a build.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for repository diff reviews, architecture or plan reviews, and breaking-test checks that return a clear accept, counter, or block verdict.
Why use it?
It provides another perspective when reviewers disagree, one reviewer is unavailable, or the work needs an additional safety check.

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

gemini 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 8d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 81 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

gemini — the third vendor in the "second pair of eyes"

Its siblings: Codex (secondop.py / codex_review.py, the default) and Grok (grok_review.py, a CLI on the hub). Gemini is the third independent vendor: it rescues the verdict when Codex has burned through its quota, and as a hetero-pair it breaks what the other two never saw.

When I call it

  • In /tt Step 2.5, rail 3: Codex unavailable/quota-blocked · a contested COUNTER · a safety-critical artifact (call two or three of them) · the operator says "ask Gemini".
  • Diff review alongside cc_review.py / codex_review.py / grok_review.py.
  • A third voice on architecture/plan review when Claude and Codex disagree.

How (headless, no browser)

The breaker for /tt (the verdict is logged into secondop automatically, no manual log-ext needed):

python "%USERPROFILE%\.claude\scripts\cc-review\gemini_review.py" break --task <task-id> --context "<what we built + what has already been checked>"

Diff review:

python "%USERPROFILE%\.claude\scripts\cc-review\gemini_review.py" review --repo "<path to the repo>"

Is the rail alive (before the ritual leans on it):

python "%USERPROFILE%\.claude\scripts\cc-review\gemini_review.py" doctor

Flags: --range "HEAD~1 HEAD" · --diff <patch> · --task <task.md> (what was asked for) · --model <model> · --engine cli|rest · --timeout S · --no-log (break without writing to usage.jsonl).

How to read the answer

  • break: the first line is ACCEPT (agreement) · COUNTER / BLOCK (a finding → that is /tt Step 4: root cause → fix → re-run, not "an opinion noted for the record"). An unrecognized verdict → exit 3, the external eye does NOT count (ask again in the right format, or log an explicit log-skip).
  • review: VERDICT: APPROVE | REQUEST_CHANGES + a report review-gemini-<ts>.md next to the repo.
  • The rail did not answer → the script writes a skip into usage.jsonl itself and prints ⚠️: the /tt verdict is then ⚠️ PARTIAL at best, never ✅. A missed call ≠ a green test.
