Try itGenerate text and images through the Gemini web interface from the command line, with optional reference images and multi-turn sessions.
What it does
A CLI wrapper around a TypeScript port of the Gemini web API. Generates text or images from a prompt, accepts reference images for vision input, and supports multi-turn conversations via session IDs. First run opens a browser for Google authentication (cookies are cached) and prompts the user to accept a disclaimer for reverse-engineered API usage. Four Gemini models are selectable via --model, including a preview build.
When to use it
- Generate images from a prompt with --image
- Maintain multi-turn conversations through --sessionId
- Attach reference images for vision-style prompts
- Script Gemini text generation with a chosen model

Gemini Web Client
Text/image generation via Gemini Web API. Supports reference images and multi-turn conversations.
User Input Tools
When this skill prompts the user, follow this tool-selection rule (priority order):
- Prefer built-in user-input tools exposed by the current agent runtime — e.g.,
AskUserQuestion,request_user_input,clarify,ask_user, or any equivalent. - Fallback: if no such tool exists, emit a numbered plain-text message and ask the user to reply with the chosen number/answer for each question.
- Batching: if the tool supports multiple questions per call, combine all applicable questions into a single call; if only single-question, ask them one at a time in priority order.
Concrete AskUserQuestion references below are examples — substitute the local equivalent in other runtimes.
Script Directory
Important: All scripts are located in the scripts/ subdirectory of this skill.
Agent Execution Instructions:
- Determine this SKILL.md file's directory path as
{baseDir} - Script path =
{baseDir}/scripts/.ts - Resolve
${BUN_X}runtime: ifbuninstalled →bun; ifnpxavailable →npx -y bun; else suggest installing bun - Replace all
{baseDir}and${BUN_X}in this document with actual values
Script Reference:
| Script | Purpose |
|---|---|
scripts/main.ts | CLI entry point for text/image generation |
scripts/gemini-webapi/* | TypeScript port of gemini_webapi (GeminiClient, types, utils) |
Consent Check (REQUIRED)
Before first use, verify user consent for reverse-engineered API usage.
Consent file locations:
- macOS:
~/Library/Application Support/baoyu-skills/gemini-web/consent.json - Linux:
~/.local/share/baoyu-skills/gemini-web/consent.json - Windows:
%APPDATA%\baoyu-skills\gemini-web\consent.json
Flow:
- Check if consent file exists with
accepted: trueanddisclaimerVersion: "1.0" - If valid consent exists → print warning with
acceptedAtdate, proceed - If no consent → show disclaimer, ask user via
AskUserQuestion:- "Yes, I accept" → create consent file with ISO timestamp, proceed
- "No, I decline" → output decline message, stop
- Consent file format:
{"version":1,"accepted":true,"acceptedAt":"","disclaimerVersion":"1.0"}

Usage
# Text generation
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts "Your prompt"
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "Your prompt" --model gemini-3-flash
# Image generation
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cute cat" --image cat.png
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts --promptfiles system.md content.md --image out.png
# Vision input (reference images)
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "Describe this" --reference image.png
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts --prompt "Create variation" --reference a.png --image out.png
# Multi-turn conversation
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts "Remember: 42" --sessionId session-abc
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts "What number?" --sessionId session-abc
# JSON output
${BUN_X} {baseDir}/scripts/main.ts "Hello" --json

Models
| Model | Description |
|---|---|
gemini-3-pro | Default, latest 3.0 Pro |
gemini-3-flash | Fast, lightweight 3.0 Flash |
gemini-3-flash-thinking | 3.0 Flash with thinking |
gemini-3.1-pro-preview | 3.1 Pro preview (empty header, auto-routed) |
Authentication
First run opens browser for Google auth. Cookies cached automatically.
When no explicit profile dir is set, cookie refresh may reuse an already-running local Chrome/Chromium debugging session tied to a standard user-data dir.
Set --profile-dir or GEMINI_WEB_CHROME_PROFILE_DIR to force a dedicated profile and skip existing-session reuse.
This is a best-effort CDP session reuse path, not the Chrome DevTools MCP prompt-based --autoConnect flow described in Chrome's official docs.
Supported browsers (auto-detected): Chrome, Chrome Canary/Beta, Chromium, Edge.
Force refresh: --login flag. Override browser: GEMINI_WEB_CHROME_PATH env var.
Environment Variables
| Variable | Description |
|---|---|
GEMINI_WEB_DATA_DIR | Data directory |
GEMINI_WEB_COOKIE_PATH | Cookie file path |
GEMINI_WEB_CHROME_PROFILE_DIR | Chrome profile directory |
GEMINI_WEB_CHROME_PATH | Chrome executable path |
HTTP_PROXY, HTTPS_PROXY | Proxy for Google access (set inline with command) |
Sessions
Session files stored in data directory under sessions/.json.
Contains: id, metadata (Gemini chat state), messages array, timestamps.
Extension Support
Custom configurations via EXTEND.md. See Preferences section for paths and supported options.
Questions people ask
- Does it require login?
- Yes. First run opens a supported browser (Chrome, Chromium, Edge, etc.) for Google authentication; cookies are cached locally for reuse. Pass --login to force a refresh.
- Which models are available?
- gemini-3-pro (default), gemini-3-flash, gemini-3-flash-thinking, and gemini-3.1-pro-preview, selected via the --model flag.
- How do multi-turn conversations work?
- Reuse the same --sessionId value across calls. Session files are stored under the data directory's sessions folder and can be listed with --list-sessions.
