Gemini Web Client
Supports:
- Text generation
- Image generation (download + save)
- Reference image upload (attach images for vision tasks)
- Multi-turn conversations within the same executor instance (
)keepSession - Experimental video generation (
) — Gemini may return an async placeholder; download might require Gemini web UIgenerateVideo
Quick start
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "Hello, Gemini" npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --prompt "Explain quantum computing" npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cute cat" --image cat.png npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --promptfiles system.md content.md --image out.png # Multi-turn conversation (agent generates unique sessionId) npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "Remember this: 42" --sessionId my-unique-id-123 npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "What number?" --sessionId my-unique-id-123
Executor options (programmatic)
This skill is typically consumed via
createGeminiWebExecutor(geminiOptions) (see scripts/executor.ts).
Key options in
GeminiWebOptions:
Upload local images as references (vision input).referenceImages?: string | string[]
Reuse GeminikeepSession?: boolean
to continue the same conversation across calls (required if you want reference images to persist across multiple messages).chatMetadata
Generate a video and (best-effort) download to the given path. Gemini may returngenerateVideo?: string
(async); in that case you must open Gemini web UI to download the result.video_gen_chip
Notes:
cannot be combined withgenerateVideo
/generateImage
.editImage- When
andkeepSession=true
is set, reference images are uploaded once per executor instance.referenceImages
Commands
Text generation
# Simple prompt (positional) npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "Your prompt here" # Explicit prompt flag npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --prompt "Your prompt here" npx -y bun scripts/main.ts -p "Your prompt here" # With model selection npx -y bun scripts/main.ts -p "Hello" -m gemini-2.5-pro # Pipe from stdin echo "Summarize this" | npx -y bun scripts/main.ts
Image generation
# Generate image with default path (./generated.png) npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --prompt "A sunset over mountains" --image # Generate image with custom path npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --prompt "A cute robot" --image robot.png # Shorthand npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "A dragon" --image=dragon.png
Output formats
# Plain text (default) npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "Hello" # JSON output npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "Hello" --json
Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
, | Prompt text |
| Read prompt from files (concatenated in order) |
, | Model: gemini-3-pro (default), gemini-2.5-pro, gemini-2.5-flash |
| Generate image, save to path (default: generated.png) |
| Session ID for multi-turn conversation (agent generates unique ID) |
| List saved sessions (max 100, sorted by update time) |
| Output as JSON |
| Refresh cookies only, then exit |
| Custom cookie file path |
| Chrome profile directory |

CLI note:
scripts/main.ts supports text generation, image generation, and multi-turn conversations via --sessionId. Reference images and video generation are exposed via the executor API.

Examples
Generate text response
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "What is the capital of France?"
Generate image
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "A photorealistic image of a golden retriever puppy" --image puppy.png
Get JSON output for parsing
npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "Hello" --json | jq '.text'
Generate image from prompt files
# Concatenate system.md + content.md as prompt npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --promptfiles system.md content.md --image output.png
Multi-turn conversation
# Start a session with unique ID (agent generates this) npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "You are a helpful math tutor." --sessionId task-abc123 # Continue the conversation (remembers context) npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "What is 2+2?" --sessionId task-abc123 npx -y bun scripts/main.ts "Now multiply that by 10" --sessionId task-abc123 # List recent sessions (max 100, sorted by update time) npx -y bun scripts/main.ts --list-sessions
Session files are stored in
~/Library/Application Support/genimg-skills/gemini-web/sessions/<id>.json and contain:
: Session IDid
