TL;DR

The issue is likely caused by an invalid count value in the String.repeat function, which may be related to a bug in the @google/gemini-cli package.

Guidance

  • The error message indicates a RangeError: Invalid count value: -1 at String.repeat, suggesting that the issue is related to an invalid input to this function.
  • The stack trace points to the renderBorder function in the @google/gemini-cli package, which may be the source of the problem.
  • To mitigate the issue, you can try updating the @google/gemini-cli package to a newer version, if available.
  • If updating is not possible, you can try to identify the specific input that is causing the error and modify it to avoid the invalid count value.

Example

No code snippet is provided as the issue is related to a third-party package and the exact code change is unclear.

Notes

The issue may be specific to the @google/gemini-cli package version 0.38.2, and updating to a newer version may resolve the problem. However, without more information about the package or the specific input causing the error, it is difficult to provide a more specific solution.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: The best course of action is to try to update the @google/gemini-cli package to a newer version, if available, to see if the issue is resolved. If updating is not possible, you can try to identify the specific input causing the error and modify it to avoid the invalid count value.
