What it does

Gemini CLI is a free, open-source tool that lets developers chat with Google's most powerful Gemini AI models directly inside their computer's terminal (the text-based command window programmers use daily). It can help with tasks like understanding large codebases, generating new apps from images or documents, searching the web, and running file operations — all through a conversational AI interface.

Why it matters for PMs

With nearly 95,000 stars on GitHub in what appears to be a very short time, this is one of the fastest-growing developer tools in recent memory, signaling massive demand for AI assistants that integrate deeply into engineering workflows rather than living in a separate browser tab. For product leaders, this raises the bar on what developers expect from AI tooling and threatens products that offer only surface-level AI features, while also representing a free, powerful alternative to paid tools like GitHub Copilot.
