gemini-cli - 💡(How to fix) Fix Agent Failure: Systemic Tool Execution Inaccuracy, Data Extraction Reliability, and Integration Failures

What happened?

Description: The Gemini agent exhibits systemic degradation in tool-calling reliability, data extraction, and service integration. Routine tasks consistently fail, requiring multiple corrective prompts. Observed Issues: Tool Execution (Calendar): Repeated failure to populate required parameters (specifically location) in tool-call schemas, despite explicit instructions. Data Extraction: Consistent failure to parse/extract static information (e.g., phone numbers) from provided context/Google Maps. Integration Failure: Persistent inability to interface with core services (Gmail) to perform requested monitoring/retrieval tasks, returning execution errors. Expected Behavior: Accurate parameter mapping on the first invocation. Reliable extraction of data from source contexts. Successful integration with authenticated services (Gmail). Adherence to "Verify Before Finalize" protocols when reliability is compromised. System Context: Environment: Gemini CLI. Context: Recurring instability across multiple core agent functions. Reproduction: See attached gemini_tool_failure_log.txt for specific turn-by-turn failure patterns.
