- Start a REPL session to chat interactively:

`gemini`

- Send the output of another command to Gemini and exit immediately:

`{{echo "Summarize the history of Rome"}} | gemini {{[-p|--prompt]}} -`

- Use a specific model (default: auto-gemini-3):

`gemini {{[-m|--model]}} {{model_name}}`

- Run inside a sandbox container:

`gemini {{[-s|--sandbox]}}`

- Execute a prompt then stay in interactive mode:

`gemini {{[-i|--prompt-interactive]}} "{{Give me an example of recursion in Python}}"`

- Set the approval mode for tool calls:

`gemini --approval-mode {{default|auto_edit|yolo|plan}}`

- Resume a session (defaults to "latest"; accepts an index number or UUID):

`gemini {{[-r|--resume]}} {{latest|index|session_id}}`
