What this skill does
Gemini Skill Guide When to Use Gemini WHEN ASKED TO BE ACTIVATED Code Review: Comprehensive code reviews across multiple files Plan Review: Analyzing architectural plans, technical specifications, or project roadmaps Big Context Processing: Tasks requiring >200k tokens of context (entire codebases, documentation sets) Multi-file Analysis: Understanding relationships and patterns across many files ⚠️ Critical: Background/Non-Interactive Mode Warning NEVER use --approval-mode default in background or non-interactive shells (like Claude Code tool calls). It will hang indefinitely waiting for approval prompts that cannot be provided. For automated/background reviews: ✅ Use --approval-mode yolo for fully automated execution ✅ OR wrap with timeout: timeout 300 gemini ... ❌ NEVER use --approval-mode default without interactive terminal Symptoms of hung Gemini: Process running 20+ minutes with 0% CPU usage No network activity Process state shows 'S' (sleeping) Fix hung process: Running a Task 1. Ask the user (via AskUserQuestion) which model to use in a single prompt. Available models: gemini-3-pro-preview ⭐ (flagship model, best for coding & complex reasoning, 35% better at software engineering than 2.5 Pro) gemini-3-flash (sub-second latency, distilled from 3 Pro, best for speed-critical tasks) gemini-2.5-pro (legacy option, strong all-around performance) gemini-2.5-flash (legacy option, cost-efficient with thinking capabilities) gemini-2.5-flash-lite (legacy option, fastest processing) 2. Select the approval mode based on the task: default: Prompt for approval (⚠️ ONLY for interactive terminal sessions) autoedit: Auto-approve edit tools only (for code reviews with suggestions) yolo: Auto-approve all tools (✅ REQUIRED for background/automated tasks) 3. …
