The previous implementation used `flushIfNeeded` to batch most telemetry events, but it was not reliably sending them, leading to data loss. Notably, the `startSession` event, which already used `flushToClearcut`, was working correctly, indicating an issue with the batching logic itself.
This change replaces all calls to `flushIfNeeded` with `flushToClearcut` to align all event logging with the working `startSession` implementation and ensure that events are sent immediately. This prioritizes the reliability of data collection over network efficiency.
This is a temporary solution to prevent further data loss. The underlying issue with the batching mechanism in `flushIfNeeded` should be investigated and fixed in the future, at which point this change can be reverted.
Renames the `disableDataCollection` flag to the more intuitive and positive `dataCollectionEnabled`.
This change improves code clarity by avoiding double negatives and making the purpose of the flag more direct. The logic has been inverted wherever the flag is used to accommodate the new naming convention.
Using a suffix like `"Enabled"` follows a common convention that improves readability.
- A condition like `if (dataCollectionEnabled)` reads like a natural language sentence ("if data collection is enabled"), which reduces cognitive load.
- Distinguishes the boolean flag (representing a state) from potential functions that would perform an action (e.g., `enableDataCollection()` or `disableDataCollection()`), avoiding ambiguity between checking a value and calling a function.
#750
The `/bug` command tests in `slashCommandProcessor.test.ts` were flaky due to inconsistent CLI versioning.
This commit:
- Implements a flexible, top-level mock for `getCliVersion` that can be overridden per test.
- Sets a default mock value for `/bug` command tests via `beforeEach`.
- Overrides the mock in one test case requiring a specific version ('test-version').
- Ensures the test's helper `getExpectedUrl` receives the correct explicit version.
- Aligns the expected CLI version in the custom bug URL test with the default mock.
These changes ensure consistent CLI versioning in tests, resolving flakiness.
#1071
Related to https://b.corp.google.com/issues/423605555 - I figured this might be a simpler solution to start with, while still also being useful on its own even if we do implement that.
Similar to ctrl+c, ctrl+d can now be used to exit the program. To avoid accidental exit, ctrl+d must be pressed twice in relatively quick succession (same as ctrl+c).
Following common UX pattern, ctrl+d will be ignored when the input prompt is non-empty. This behavior is similar to how most shell (bash/zsh) behaves. To support this, I had to refactor so that text buffer is initialized outside of the InputPrompt component and instead do it on the main App component to allow input controller to have access to check the content of the text buffer.
Add the user's decision (accept, reject, modify) to tool call telemetry to better understand user intent. The decision provides crucial context to the `success` metric, as a user can reject a call that would have succeeded or accept one that fails.
Also prettify the arguments json.
Example:
#750
This commit refactors the telemetry system to pass a object to various logging and metrics functions. This change centralizes configuration management within the telemetry system, making it more modular and easier to maintain.
The constructor and various tool execution functions have been updated to accept the object, which is then passed down to the telemetry functions. This eliminates the need to pass individual configuration values, such as , through multiple layers of the application.
# 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.

- Introduces a suite of tests for the hook, covering various scenarios including:
- Successful tool execution
- Tool not found errors
- Errors during
- Errors during tool execution
- Tool confirmation (approved and cancelled) - (currently skipped)
- Live output updates - (currently skipped)
- Cancellation of tool calls (before execution and during approval) - (currently skipped)
- Execution of multiple tool calls
- Preventing scheduling while other calls are running - (currently skipped)
- Includes tests for the utility function to ensure correct mapping of tool call states to display objects.
- Mocks dependencies like , , and individual instances.
- Uses fake timers to control asynchronous operations.
Note: Some tests involving complex asynchronous interactions (confirmations, live output, cancellations) are currently skipped due to challenges in reliably testing these scenarios with the current setup. These will be addressed in future work.
This change introduces a small delay after the first Ctrl+C press, prompting the user to press Ctrl+C again to exit. This helps prevent accidental termination of the application.
- Added `exitOnCtrlC={false}` to the Ink render options in `gemini.tsx` to enable custom Ctrl+C handling.
- Implemented logic in `App.tsx` to:
- Display "Press Ctrl+C again to exit." for 2 seconds after the first Ctrl+C.
- Exit the application if Ctrl+C is pressed again during this period.
- Revert to normal operation if the second Ctrl+C is not pressed within the timeout.
- Defined a constant `CTRL_C_PROMPT_DURATION_MS` for the timeout duration.
This change detects the most recent git commit short hash and writes it to the `GIT_COMMIT_INFO` constant in `packages/cli/src/generated/git-commit.sh`, optionally appending the string "(local modifications)" if additional local changes after that commit are detected.
If set, this string is displayed in the `/about` dialog as well as passed into the `/bug` template.

Additionally, this change updates `.gitignore` to ignore the generated files, `scripts/clean.sh` to remove them, and adds a `npm run generate` stage for this and any other generators we need to write.
- Implements cancellation for Gemini requests while they are actively being processed by the model.
- Extends cancellation support to the logic within tools. This allows users to cancel operations during the phase where the system is determining if a tool execution requires user confirmation, which can include potentially long-running pre-flight checks or LLM-based corrections.
- Underlying LLM calls for edit corrections (within and ) and next speaker checks can now also be cancelled.
- Previously, cancellation of the main request was not possible until text started streaming, and pre-execution checks were not cancellable.
- This change leverages the updated SDK's ability to accept an abort token and threads s throughout the request, tool execution, and pre-execution check lifecycle.

- Copied the `Chat` class from `@google/genai` into `packages/server/src/core/geminiChat.ts`.
- This change is in preparation for future modifications to the chat handling logic.
- Updated relevant files to use the new `GeminiChat` class.

- Introduced a 'validating' state for tool calls to prevent the input box from reappearing while waiting for a tool's `shouldConfirmExecute` method to complete.
- When a tool call is initiated, it's now immediately set to a 'validating' status. This ensures the UI remains in a busy/responding state.
- `useGeminiStream` now considers the 'validating' state as part of `StreamingState.Responding`.
- `useToolScheduler` has been updated to:
- Set the initial status of new tool calls to 'validating'.
- Asynchronously perform the `shouldConfirmExecute` check.
- Transition to 'awaiting_approval' or 'scheduled' based on the check's outcome.
- This resolves an issue where a slow `shouldConfirmExecute` could lead to the input prompt becoming active again before the tool call lifecycle was fully determined. While 'validating' is currently treated similarly to 'executing' in the UI, this new state provides a foundation for more customized user experiences during this phase in the future.
Fixes https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/issues/527
Increases the threshold for rendering diff separators in the CLI's diff display. Previously, a separator was shown for gaps of more than one context line, leading to excessive separators in diffs with many small changes close together (Issue #534).
By increasing `MAX_CONTEXT_LINES_WITHOUT_GAP` to 5, we allow for more context lines before a separator is added, significantly reducing visual clutter in such diffs.
Added a test case to `DiffRenderer.test.tsx` to verify that separators are not rendered for small gaps within the new threshold.
No intentional different behavior aside for tweaks suggested from the code review of #506 Refactor: Extract console message logic to custom hook
This commit refactors the console message handling from App.tsx into a new custom hook useConsoleMessages.
This change improves the testability of the console message logic and declutters the main App component.
Created useConsoleMessages.ts to encapsulate console message state and update logic.
Updated App.tsx to utilize the new useConsoleMessages hook.
Added unit tests for useConsoleMessages.ts to ensure its functionality.
I deleted and started over on LoadingIndicator.test.tsx as I spent way too much time trying to fix it before just regenerating the tests as the code was easier to write tests for from scratch and the existing tests were not that good (I added them in the previous pull request).
Adds the following conventional readline-like keybindings:
- `Ctrl+H`: Delete the previous character.
- `Ctrl+D`: Delete the next character.
Additionally, remaps the Debug Console command from Ctrl+D to Ctrl+O, which had been first introduced in PR #486.
- The streaming state logic in `useGeminiStream.ts` has been updated.
- Previously, the loading indicator was displayed even when the system was
waiting for user confirmation on a tool call.
- This change introduces a `WaitingForConfirmation` state to ensure the
loading indicator is hidden during these confirmation prompts, improving
the user experience.
Implements recursive glob-based file search for both suggestions and execution of the `@` command.
- When typing `@filename`, suggestions will now include files matching `filename` in nested directories.
- Suggestions are sorted by path depth (shallowest first), then directories before files, then alphabetically.
- The maximum recursion depth for suggestions is set to 10.
- When executing an `@filename` command, if the file is not found directly, a recursive search (using the glob tool) is performed to locate the file.
This addresses the first request in issue #461 by allowing users to quickly reference deeply nested files without typing the full path. Also addresses b/416292478.
- Ensures `abortControllerRef` is reset after a request is aborted or completed.
- Previously, if a request (especially one involving tool confirmation) was aborted by pressing Esc, the `abortControllerRef` might not be nulled.
- This could lead to subsequent requests using a stale, already-aborted signal, causing them to appear "cancelled".
- The fix unconditionally sets `abortControllerRef.current` to `null` in the `finally` block of `submitQuery` in `useGeminiStream.ts`.
- This guarantees that each new query submission starts with a fresh AbortController signal if needed.
- Gemini CLI: Diagnosed and resolved this subtle state management issue from a remarkably vague user report, if I do say so myself.
Fixes https://buganizer.corp.google.com/issues/418496499
- The text buffer now correctly interprets `\\\r` (produced by Shift+Enter in the VSCode terminal) as a newline character.
- Added a corresponding test case to `text-buffer.test.ts`.
Fixes https://buganizer.corp.google.com/issues/418505364
- Adds a visual indicator for skipped lines in the diff view.
- Updates tests to verify gap indicator rendering.
- Adjusts line number padding for better alignment.
Fixes https://b.corp.google.com/issues/414453107
This change adds keybinding support for:
- `Ctrl+B`: Moves the cursor backward one character.
- `Ctrl+F`: Moves the cursor forward one character.
- `Alt+Left Arrow`: Moves the cursor backward one word.
- `Alt+Right Arrow`: Moves the cursor forward one word.
Closes b/411469305.
- The shell command processor was incorrectly truncating the first
character of the command (e.g., 'ls' became 's') due to an
erroneous `slice(1)` operation, likely introduced during a
previous merge. This change removes the slice, ensuring the full
command is processed.
- Introduces unit tests for the shellCommandProcessor hook.
- Fixes a minor grammatical issue in the display of GEMINI.md file count.
- Prevents slash commands from being triggered and suggestions from being displayed when shell mode is active. This ensures that user input is correctly interpreted as shell commands.
Fixes https://buganizer.corp.google.com/issues/418560826
This commit introduces a new ShellModeIndicator component to visually signify when shell mode is active.
- Displays "shell mode enabled (! to toggle)" in the UI.
- The AutoAcceptIndicator is now hidden when shell mode is active to prevent UI clutter.
- Implements a toggleable shell mode, removing the need to prefix every command with `!`.
- Users can now enter and exit shell mode by typing `!` as the first character in an empty input prompt.
- The input prompt visually indicates active shell mode with a distinct color and `! ` prefix.
- Shell command history items (`user_shell`) are now visually differentiated from regular user messages.
- This provides a cleaner and more streamlined user experience for frequent shell interactions.
Fixes https://b.corp.google.com/issues/418509745
- The auto-accept edits indicator was appearing in two places:
once next to the loading indicator and again in the CWD bar.
- This was introduced when the CWD bar was made always visible.
- This commit removes the duplicate indicator, leaving only the one
in the CWD bar.
Fixes https://b.corp.google.com/issues/418498237
- This commit addresses an issue where the Current Working Directory (CWD) and the auto-accept indicator were not consistently visible, especially when tool confirmations were displayed.
- Previously, the CWD could be hidden during tool confirmation prompts, potentially leading to confusion about the context in which Gemini CLI was operating.
Fixes https://b.corp.google.com/issues/414289185
- This commit introduces a visual indicator in the CLI to show when auto-accept for tool confirmations is enabled. Users can now also toggle this setting on/off using Shift + Tab.
- This addresses user feedback for better visibility and control over the auto-accept feature, improving the overall user experience.
- This behavior is similar to Claude Code, providing a familiar experience for users transitioning from that environment.
- Added tests for the new auto indicator hook.
Fixes https://b.corp.google.com/issues/413740468
- Patches `console.debug` in `ConsolePatcher.tsx` to capture debug messages.
- Updates `ConsoleOutput` to only display debug messages when `debugMode` is enabled.
- Passes `debugMode` prop from `App.tsx` to `ConsoleOutput`.
Fixes https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/issues/397
This commit resolves a bug where the `write-file` operation could fail to render content due to a missing filename.
The fix involves:
- Ensuring `fileName` is consistently passed to `DiffRenderer.tsx` through `ToolConfirmationMessage.tsx`, `ToolMessage.tsx`, and `useGeminiStream.ts`.
- Modifying `edit.ts` and `write-file.ts` to include `fileName` in the `FileDiff` object.
- Expanding the `FileDiff` interface in `tools.ts` to include `fileName`.
Additionally, this commit enhances the diff rendering by:
- Adding syntax highlighting based on file extension in `DiffRenderer.tsx`.
- Adding more language mappings to `getLanguageFromExtension` in `DiffRenderer.tsx`.
- Added lots of tests for all the above.
Fixes https://b.corp.google.com/issues/418125982
This commit addresses several code review comments primarily focused on improving the rendering and stability of the CLI UI.
Key changes include:
- Passing `isPending` and `availableTerminalHeight` props to `MarkdownDisplay` to enable more intelligent rendering of content, especially for pending messages and code blocks.
- Adjusting height calculations in `ToolGroupMessage` and `ToolMessage` to more accurately reflect available space.
- Refining the logic in `App.tsx` for measuring and utilizing terminal height, including renaming `footerRef` to `mainControlsRef` for clarity.
- Ensuring consistent prop drilling for `isPending` and `availableTerminalHeight` through `HistoryItemDisplay`, `GeminiMessage`, and `GeminiMessageContent`.
- In `MarkdownDisplay`, when `isPending` is true and content exceeds `availableTerminalHeight`, the code block will now be truncated with a "... generating more ..." message. If there's insufficient space even for the
message, a simpler "... code is being written ..." will be shown.
This commit introduces several changes to better manage terminal height and prevent UI tearing, especially when displaying long tool outputs or when the pending history item exceeds the available terminal height.
- Calculate and utilize available terminal height in `App.tsx`, `HistoryItemDisplay.tsx`, `ToolGroupMessage.tsx`, and `ToolMessage.tsx`.
- Refresh the static display area in `App.tsx` when a pending history item is too large, working around an Ink bug (see https://github.com/vadimdemedes/ink/pull/717).
- Truncate long tool output in `ToolMessage.tsx` and indicate the number of hidden lines.
- Refactor `App.tsx` to correctly measure and account for footer height.
Fixes https://b.corp.google.com/issues/414196943
- This commit refactors the Markdown rendering logic within the CLI UI.
The existing `MarkdownRenderer.tsx` class-based component has been
replaced with a new functional component `MarkdownDisplay.tsx`.
- The `MarkdownDisplay` component is a React.memoized component for
improved performance and maintains the same core Markdown parsing
and rendering capabilities.
New keybindings in the main input prompt (when auto-suggestions are not active):
- `Ctrl+L`: Clears the entire screen.
- `Ctrl+A`: Moves the cursor to the beginning of the current input line.
- `Ctrl+E`: Moves the cursor to the end of the current input line.
- `Ctrl+P`: Navigates to the previous command in the input history.
- `Ctrl+N`: Navigates to the next command in the input history.
In the multiline text editor (e.g., when editing a previous message):
- `Ctrl+K`: Deletes text from the current cursor position to the end of the line ("kill line right").
