Gemini CLI is terrible. I've had it:

- Repeat more than 20 times the same response to my prompt rejecting its proposed changes; I just kept prompting to see how far it would go before doing something different. Claude Code would quickly guess there is something wrong and try something else or ask what I'm getting at

- Continually refer to outdated versions of files, even after I've told to re-read the files

- Refer to files in a different session on a different machine that have no relevance to what I'm currently doing, presumably simply because I logged in with the same account.

- Randomly crash or enter infinite loops, sometimes soon after starting

- Refuse to read files in a sibling or parent folder

- Fail to understand simple request.

- Propose empty changes

Claude Code is just far better. I only use Gemini CLI for the simplest of tasks
