• Verify: gemini --version

When to Use

• Want a second opinion on code quality
• Need architectural review
• Comparing implementation approaches
• Code review before commit

How to Invoke

The user will ask something like:

• "ask gemini what it thinks about this code"
• "get gemini's opinion on this approach"
• "demande à gemini de reviewer ce fichier"

Execution

For file review

gemini "Review this code and provide 3 specific improvements: $(cat <file_path>)"

For architectural questions

gemini "<user's question about architecture or approach>"

For comparing approaches

gemini "Compare these two approaches and recommend which is better: Approach A: <desc> vs Approach B: <desc>"

Output Format

Present Gemini's response clearly to the user. If Gemini suggests improvements, summarize them as actionable items.

Examples

File review

User: "demande à gemini ce qu'il pense du semantic-skill-router.py"

gemini "Review this Python script for a semantic routing system. List 3 improvements for production use: $(cat scripts/semantic-skill-router.py)"
