Google’s open-source terminal agent for Gemini models, with repository operations, shell and web tools, and MCP support. Google also documents a migration path to the separate Antigravity CLI.

100%25 / 25 sampled commits
25 of 25 unique sampled commits carry additional agent attribution (Claude, Cursor). Counting each agent separately can therefore count the same commit more than once. This is shared attribution, not proof of a handoff or which tool did most of the work.
100%25 / 25 sampled commits
jee1/memento accounts for 25 of the 25 distinct attributed commits returned. This makes the sample useful for studying that project’s workflow, but unsuitable as a picture of the agent’s wider adoption.

This is a sample of publicly attributed work, not total usage or a market-share estimate. Repositories are not customers. Attribution is declared in metadata, not independently verified tool execution; it does not prove exclusive authorship or autonomy. GitHub flagged incomplete search results; only returned, validated records are described and search totals are not used.
Up to 100 returned search results ordered by commit date within the audit window; attribution trailers validated and duplicate SHAs removed across repositories. A recent convenience sample, not a random or exhaustive sample. Commit sample dates use the UTC committer timestamp, matching the search window. Excluded 0 commits with five or more distinct recognized agent/model credits in one message; broad credit lists are not used as evidence of a workflow. Of 82 unique candidate commits, 25 explicitly named Gemini CLI; model-only and other-client trailers were excluded. A model name alone is not an agent signature.
Returned records dated Aug 28, 2026–Oct 11, 2026.

Public GitHub commits attributed to Gemini
This spans Google's Gemini surfaces, so it is a Google-Gemini floor rather than a CLI-only count. Gemini CLI does not attribute its work by default, so its real output is far larger.
Last full week (ending 2026-10-18): 2,449 signed commits (+70.2% week over week), search estimate.
Flow share: 0% of the 1999 most recent public PRs sampled (0 PRs, 2 windows, last 2026-09-27). Zero marked PRs in the sampled flow despite the historical total: current run-rate is far below the accumulated stock.
Snapshot 2026-06-09, confidence Low, tracked since 2026-06-09. Read the methodology.
Gemini CLI has a public npm install channel.
Counts public npm package downloads only. Other install channels, caches, mirrors, IDE extensions, and enterprise distribution are not included.
