INTEGRATION

Gemini CLI

The launcher-only Bash and Windows PowerShell helpers pin the reviewed Gemini CLI 0.55.1 contract and default to gpt-5.6-sol. With GOOGLE_GEMINI_BASE_URL set, Gemini CLI selects gateway auth and sends x-goog-api-key to the native Google GenAI v1beta REST/SSE routes; this is not OpenAI-compatible translation. The helper uses GEMINI_MODEL and the real Gemini state directory only in the child process. BobRouter backend schema, SSE, countTokens, and tool-call compatibility remain unverified.

Command explanations

Verify

Dry-run writes nothing. Run requires BOBROUTER_API_KEY in the current process. The helper refuses unreviewed Gemini CLI versions unless version drift is deliberately accepted.
