gemini-cli - 💡(How to fix) Fix It consumed a bunch of memory, then it crashed. [1 comments, 2 participants]

TL;DR

The issue is likely related to a crash in the CLI version 0.40.1, and attaching the exported chat history JSON file may help diagnose the problem.

Guidance

• The crash may be specific to the combination of CLI version 0.40.1, Git commit 7a382e066, and model version auto-gemini-3, so checking for similar issues with these versions could be helpful.
• Attaching the exported chat history JSON file as requested could provide valuable information for debugging the crash.
• Verifying that the issue persists across different terminal environments (e.g., changing the terminal name or background) might help isolate the cause.
• If the issue is reproducible, trying a different auth type (e.g., switching from oauth-personal to another type if available) could provide insight into whether the crash is authentication-related.

Notes
