The rest of out here watching usage and telemetry to decide where to invest, meanwhile, over at Google…

What if their telemetry shows very low usage? I've seen virtually no discussion of Gemini CLI online.

  • There's a fair amount of enterprise usage. It's a really good product, despite the Claude hype. Anthropic is a PITA to deal with, and it's slow as shit weekday morning Eastern time.

    • I use all 3 compared to what do you think Gemini CLI is a good product? (my only use case for it now is triple checking specifications for drift inconsistencies beyond that I find it pretty lacking compared to codex and cc).

    • Gemini CLI for Enterprise will continue.

      > If your organization uses Gemini CLI or our IDE extensions via a Gemini Code Assist Standard or Enterprise license, or if your organization uses Gemini Code Assist for GitHub through Google Cloud, your access remains unchanged.

  • There are 13,700 forks of its repo on Github.

    If anything, I suspect closing the source for their coding agent may have been part of the goal.

    • If the repo is already forked, what difference does it make if Google supports it or not? The community can just continue development if they so choose

    • Forks don't mean anything anymore, especially on an AI-related repo. 99% of them are automated.
