Adds a test case to `settings.test.ts` to specifically verify
the correct resolution of multiple environment variables concatenated
within a single string value (e.g., ${HOST}:${PORT} ).
Refactors the `resolveEnvVarsInObject` function in settings to
explicitly handle primitive types (null, undefined, boolean, number)
at the beginning of the function. This clarifies the logic for
subsequent string, array, and object processing.
This commit introduces the ability to use system environment variables
within the settings files (e.g., `settings.json`). Users can now
reference environment variables using the `${VAR_NAME}` syntax.
This enhancement improves security and flexibility, particularly
for configurations like MCP server settings, which often require
sensitive tokens.
Previously, to configure an MCP server, a token might be directly
embedded:
```json
"mcpServers": {
"github": {
"env": {
"GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN": "pat_abc123"
}
// ...
}
}
```
With this change, the same configuration can securely reference an
environment variable:
```json
"mcpServers": {
"github": {
"env": {
"GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN": "${GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN}"
}
// ...
}
}
```
This allows users to avoid storing secrets directly in configuration files.
# Add .gitignore-Aware File Filtering to gemini-cli
This pull request introduces .gitignore-based file filtering to the gemini-cli, ensuring that git-ignored files are automatically excluded from file-related operations and suggestions throughout the CLI. The update enhances usability, reduces noise from build artifacts and dependencies, and provides new configuration options for fine-tuning file discovery.
Key Improvements
.gitignore File Filtering
All @ (at) commands, file completions, and core discovery tools now honor .gitignore patterns by default.
Git-ignored files (such as node_modules/, dist/, .env, and .git) are excluded from results unless explicitly overridden.
The behavior can be customized via a new fileFiltering section in settings.json, including options for:
Turning .gitignore respect on/off.
Adding custom ignore patterns.
Allowing or excluding build artifacts.
Configuration & Documentation Updates
settings.json schema extended with fileFiltering options.
Documentation updated to explain new filtering controls and usage patterns.
Testing
New and updated integration/unit tests for file filtering logic, configuration merging, and edge cases.
Test coverage ensures .gitignore filtering works as intended across different workflows.
Internal Refactoring
Core file discovery logic refactored for maintainability and extensibility.
Underlying tools (ls, glob, read-many-files) now support git-aware filtering out of the box.

This change introduces a User-Agent header to all API requests made by the Gemini CLI.
The User-Agent string includes the CLI version, Node.js version, operating system, and architecture. This will help in tracking usage and identifying potential issues.

* Starting to move a lot of code into packages/server
* More of the massive refactor, builds and runs, some issues though.
* Fixing outstanding issue with double messages.
* Fixing a minor UI issue.
* Fixing the build post-merge.
* Running formatting.
* Addressing comments.
This commit introduces the initial codebase for the Gemini Code CLI, a command-line interface designed to facilitate interaction with the Gemini API for software engineering tasks.
The code was migrated from a previous git repository as a single squashed commit.
Core Features & Components:
* **Gemini Integration:** Leverages the `@google/genai` SDK to interact with the Gemini models, supporting chat history, streaming responses, and function calling (tools).
* **Terminal UI:** Built with Ink (React for CLIs) providing an interactive chat interface within the terminal, including input prompts, message display, loading indicators, and tool interaction elements.
* **Tooling Framework:** Implements a robust tool system allowing Gemini to interact with the local environment. Includes tools for:
* File system listing (`ls`)
* File reading (`read-file`)
* Content searching (`grep`)
* File globbing (`glob`)
* File editing (`edit`)
* File writing (`write-file`)
* Executing bash commands (`terminal`)
* **State Management:** Handles the streaming state of Gemini responses and manages the conversation history.
* **Configuration:** Parses command-line arguments (`yargs`) and loads environment variables (`dotenv`) for setup.
* **Project Structure:** Organized into `core`, `ui`, `tools`, `config`, and `utils` directories using TypeScript. Includes basic build (`tsc`) and start scripts.
This initial version establishes the foundation for a powerful CLI tool enabling developers to use Gemini for coding assistance directly in their terminal environment.
