Google Gemini CLI
This repository provides a Snap package for the Google Gemini CLI.
Disclaimer: This is not an official Google product. This snap is a community-maintained wrapper. It does not modify the original source code in any way; it simply clones the official repository and packages it for easy installation on Snap-supported Linux distributions.
How to use
For documentation about the Gemini CLI functionality itself or to report bug, please use the official upstream repository: https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli

- It pulls the latest stable source directly from https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli
- It packages the Python environment and dependencies into a confined snap.
- No custom patches or external scripts are added to the Gemini source code.
