What happened?

Run gemini to enter the interactive CLI, then run the /about command.

TL;DR

The issue can likely be resolved by removing or reconfiguring the android-cli skills installed in the .agents directory to avoid conflicts with the skills in the .gemini folder.

Guidance

  • Check the contents of the .agents directory to identify the specific android-cli skills that are causing the conflict.
  • Consider removing the android-cli skills from the .agents directory if they are not necessary for your workflow.
  • If the skills are required, try renaming or reconfiguring them to avoid naming conflicts with the skills in the .gemini folder.
  • Verify that the android init command is not reinstalling the conflicting skills after making changes.

Notes

The solution may vary depending on the specific requirements of the android-cli and gemini-cli tools, as well as the user's workflow and environment.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Remove or reconfigure the conflicting android-cli skills to avoid naming conflicts with the skills in the .gemini folder. This approach is recommended because it allows for a targeted solution that addresses the specific conflict without requiring a version upgrade or more invasive changes.
