# Gemini CLI Tool Mapping
|
||||
|
||||
Skills speak in actions ("dispatch a subagent", "create a todo", "read a file"). On Gemini CLI these resolve to the tools below.
|
||||
|
||||
| Action skills request | Gemini CLI equivalent |
|
||||
|----------------------|----------------------|
|
||||
| Read a file | `read_file` |
|
||||
| Read multiple files at once | `read_many_files` |
|
||||
| Create a new file | `write_file` |
|
||||
| Edit a file | `replace` |
|
||||
| Run a shell command | `run_shell_command` |
|
||||
| Search file contents | `grep_search` |
|
||||
| Find files by name | `glob` |
|
||||
| List files and subdirectories | `list_directory` |
|
||||
| Fetch a URL | `web_fetch` |
|
||||
| Search the web | `google_web_search` |
|
||||
| Invoke a skill | `activate_skill` |
|
||||
| Dispatch a subagent (`Subagent (general-purpose):` template) | `invoke_agent` with `agent_name: "generalist"` (invocable via `@generalist` chat syntax — see [Subagent support](#subagent-support)) |
|
||||
| Multiple parallel dispatches | Multiple `invoke_agent` calls in the same response |
|
||||
| Task tracking ("create a todo", "mark complete") | `write_todos` (statuses: pending, in_progress, completed, cancelled, blocked) |
|
||||
|
||||
## Instructions file
|
||||
|
||||
When a skill mentions "your instructions file", on Gemini CLI this is **`GEMINI.md`**. Gemini CLI loads `GEMINI.md` hierarchically: global at `~/.gemini/GEMINI.md`, project-level files in workspace directories and their ancestors, and sub-directory `GEMINI.md` files when a tool accesses files in those directories.
|
||||
|
||||
## Personal skills directory
|
||||
|
||||
User-level skills live at **`~/.gemini/skills/`**, with **`~/.agents/skills/`** as a cross-runtime alias (shared with Codex and Copilot CLI). When both directories exist at the same scope, `.agents/skills/` takes precedence. Each skill is a subdirectory containing a `SKILL.md` (with `name` and `description` frontmatter).
|
||||
|
||||
## Subagent support
|
||||
|
||||
Gemini CLI dispatches subagents through the `invoke_agent` tool, which takes `agent_name` and `prompt` parameters. The same dispatch is also surfaced as a chat-syntax shortcut: typing `@generalist <prompt>` is equivalent to calling `invoke_agent` with `agent_name: "generalist"`. Built-in agent names include `generalist`, `cli_help`, `codebase_investigator`, and (with browser tooling enabled) `browser_agent`.
|
||||
|
||||
Skills dispatch with `Subagent (general-purpose):` and either reference a prompt-template file (e.g., `superpowers:subagent-driven-development`'s `./implementer-prompt.md`) or supply an inline prompt. On Gemini CLI:
|
||||
|
||||
| Skill dispatch form | Gemini CLI equivalent |
|
||||
|---------------------|----------------------|
|
||||
| References a `*-prompt.md` template (implementer, task-reviewer, code-reviewer, etc.) | Fill the template, then `invoke_agent` with `agent_name: "generalist"` and the filled prompt |
|
||||
| References `superpowers:requesting-code-review`'s `./code-reviewer.md` | `invoke_agent` with `agent_name: "generalist"` and the filled review template |
|
||||
| Inline prompt (no template referenced) | `invoke_agent` with `agent_name: "generalist"` and your inline prompt |
|
||||
|
||||
### Prompt filling
|
||||
|
||||
Skills provide prompt templates with placeholders like `{WHAT_WAS_IMPLEMENTED}` or `[FULL TEXT of task]`. Fill all placeholders before passing the complete prompt to `invoke_agent`. The prompt template itself contains the agent's role, review criteria, and expected output format — the subagent will follow it.
|
||||
|
||||
### Parallel dispatch
|
||||
|
||||
Gemini CLI supports parallel subagent dispatch. Issue multiple `invoke_agent` calls in the same response (or multiple `@generalist` invocations in one prompt) to run independent subagent work in parallel. Keep dependent tasks sequential, but do not serialize independent subagent tasks just to preserve a simpler history.
|
||||
|
||||
## Additional Gemini CLI tools
|
||||
|
||||
These tools are unique to Gemini CLI:
|
||||
|
||||
| Tool | Purpose |
|
||||
|------|---------|
|
||||
| `save_memory` (legacy) | Persist facts across sessions when `experimental.memoryV2 = false` |
|
||||
| `get_internal_docs` | Look up Gemini CLI's bundled documentation |
|
||||
| `ask_user` | Pose structured questions to the user (text / single-select / multi-select) |
|
||||
| `enter_plan_mode` / `exit_plan_mode` | Switch into and out of read-only plan mode |
|
||||
| `update_topic` | Update the current conversation's topic / strategic-intent metadata |
|
||||
| `complete_task` | Signal that a Gemini subagent has completed and return its result to the parent agent |
|
||||
| `tracker_create_task`, `tracker_update_task`, `tracker_get_task`, `tracker_list_tasks`, `tracker_add_dependency`, `tracker_visualize` | Rich task tracker with dependency and visualization support |
|
||||
| `read_mcp_resource`, `list_mcp_resources` | MCP resource access |
