Gemini CLI
Google’s terminal. Gemini login / a Google key, not OpenAI fields.
This app will not take a foreign key. Not a cabinet bug — it only accepts its own login or a different protocol.
Do it in order. Don’t skip
Gemini CLI has no arbitrary OpenAI Base URL.
Don’t paste our key here — it will spin on Google login.
Want a terminal with your key — Claude Code, OpenCode, Aider, Crush, or Goose.
Check
A cheapai key will not go into Gemini CLI. That’s fine.
If it didn’t start
- Not a 401 and not a wrong Base URL. The app simply will not take a foreign key.
- Use Cursor, Cline, Claude Code, or OpenCode — those take the three fields from the cabinet.
