Gemini CLI
Use Gemini in one-shot mode with a positional prompt (avoid interactive mode).
Quick start
gemini "Answer this question..."gemini --model <name> "Prompt..."gemini --output-format json "Return JSON"
File-output mode (for large token or explicit file return)
- When content is large (e.g. long article/story/report) or user explicitly asks for file output, use:
python3 /Users/shichen/skills/gemini/gemini_file_runner.py --prompt "<prompt>"- Default model:
gemini-3-flash-preview - For video parsing with large content (long video, dense transcripts, many segments), prefer
gemini-3-flash-previewfirst. - Script behavior:
- Always saves Gemini output to a file under outputs/ in this skill directory. - Always returns file_path (absolute path) in JSON. - Optionally returns content when --include-content is provided.
- Optional args:
- --model <model_name> - --output-format text|json - --output-file <filename> - --output-dir <dir> - --include-content
Required response contract for this mode
- Must include absolute file path from script JSON:
file_path - Content in response is optional and controlled by
--include-content
Example
- User request:
使用 gemini 模型写 1000 字小说并输出文件给我 - Command:
- python3 /Users/shichen/skills/gemini/gemini_file_runner.py --prompt "写一篇约 1000 字中文小说，主题是..." --output-file novel-1000-words.txt
- Expected JSON stdout:
- {"ok":true,"file_path":"/Users/shichen/skills/gemini/outputs/novel-1000-words.txt"}
Video parsing example (large content)
- User request:
请解析这个长视频并输出文件 - Command:
- python3 /Users/shichen/skills/gemini/gemini_file_runner.py --model gemini-3-flash-preview --prompt "解析视频内容并输出结构化总结..." --output-file video-analysis.txt
