Google really can’t help themselves but to have some internal re-org kill off a public thing people are actively using. It’s honestly impressive how consistent they are.

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 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.
Whats to discuss, it works, it does the job, cant complain.
The usual playbook is they rename it a few times first, then they kill it.
Sometimes it becomes 11 different chat applications among the way.
It's technically a chat application. Except you're chatting with an LLM instead of friends and family.
Another tombstone in Google Graveyard soon [1].
