Windows + Gemini CLI Setup Guide

Learn how to utilize the powerful analysis capabilities of Google Gemini directly in your Windows terminal and integrate it with the GIIP platform.

📋 Overview

Gemini CLI is a terminal-based AI conversational tool, useful for querying GIIP platform data or creating and executing local scripts. It is specifically optimized for analyzing complex system logs through Large Language Models (LLM).

🛠️ Installation & Setup Steps

1. Prerequisites

Node.js: The latest LTS version must be installed.
Google Cloud Account: Project ID and API access permissions are required.

2. Install CLI

Run the following command in Windows Command Prompt (CMD) or PowerShell:

npm install -g @google/generative-ai-cli

3. Auth & API Key Setup

Issue an API key from Google AI Studio.

Add

to your system environment variables or pass it as a parameter during execution.

$env:GOOGLE_API_KEY="your-api-key"

4. GIIP Integration Setup

Modify

cli-config.json

in the GIIP agent folder so that Gemini CLI can reference the infrastructure metadata from GIIP.

🚀 Usage Examples

Log Analysis:

gemini-cli "Analyze fatal errors in error.log file"

Script Generation:
