In June, we launched Gemini CLI, an open-source AI agent that brings the power of Gemini to your terminal. The enthusiastic adoption from developers has been incredible. To keep up with the flood of feature requests and contributions, we put our own tool to the test — using Gemini CLI to automate issue triage and pull request reviews. When community members noticed our new workflows, they asked us to share what we’ve built.
Today, we’re introducing Gemini CLI GitHub Actions. It’s a no-cost, powerful AI coding teammate for your repository. It acts both as an autonomous agent for critical routine coding tasks, and an on-demand collaborator you can quickly delegate work to.
It’s now in beta, available to everyone worldwide, and you can find it on GitHub at google-github-actions/run-gemini-cli.
An AI teammate in your repository
While Gemini CLI is a tool built for individual use in your own terminal, Gemini CLI GitHub Actions was created for team collaboration on the platform where developers work with each other.
Triggered by events like new issues or pull requests, it works asynchronously in the background, using the full context of your project to automatically handle tasks. It knows your code, understands what you want to do, and gets it done.
We’re launching with three powerful, open-source workflows that can help you code better, faster:
- 🤖Intelligent issue triage: Automate the overhead of managing new issues. Gemini CLI can analyze, label and prioritize incoming issues, helping focus your attention on what matters most.
- 🚀Accelerated pull request reviews: Get instant, insightful feedback on code changes. Gemini CLI can review pull requests for quality, style and correctness, freeing up reviewers to focus on more complex tasks and decisions.
- 🤝On-demand collaboration: Simply mention @gemini-cli in any issue or pull request to delegate tasks. Tell it to do things like, “write tests for this bug,” “implement the changes suggested above,” “brainstorm alternative solutions,” or “fix this well defined bug.”
