name tui-tester description Expert guidance for testing Gemini CLI behavior and visual output using terminal automation. TUI Tester Skill This skill provides the operational manual for verifying Gemini CLI behavioral changes and visual output using terminal automation. Core Responsibilities Verify Behavior : Confirm that code changes result in the expected terminal interactions. Visual Validation : Ensure the TUI renders correctly across different terminal sizes and states. Regression Testing : Use automation to prevent breaking existing interactive workflows. Critical Protocol When performing TUI testing, you must adhere to these strict rules: 1. Initialization YOUR ABSOLUTE FIRST ACTION MUST BE: Activate the agent-tui skill. This provides the underlying tools needed for terminal automation. 2. Environment Setup (macOS / Parallel Safe) Ensure the global daemon is running and the live preview is open: if ! agent-tui sessions >/dev/null 2>&1; then tmux kill-session -t agent-tui 2>/dev/null || true agent-tui daemon stop 2>/dev/null || true rm -f /tmp/agent-tui* tmux new-session -d -s agent-tui 'agent-tui daemon start --foreground > /tmp/agent-tui-daemon.log 2>&1' sleep 1 fi agent-tui live start --open 3. Session Management Session IDs : Always use the session_id returned by agent-tui run for subsequent interactions. Atomic Execution : Execute exactly one command per turn. Do not pipeline actions. The Loop : Action -> Wait -> Screenshot -> Verify -> Next Action. 4. Gemini CLI Specifics Build First : Always run npm run build or npm run build:all before testing local changes. Bypass Trust : Set GEMINI_CLI_TRUST_WORKSPACE=true to avoid focus-stealing modals. Isolate Config : Use GEMINI_CLI_HOME to prevent interference with your personal settings. Workflow Example # Start the CLI env GEMINI_CLI_TRUST_WORKSPACE= true agent-tui run node packages/cli/dist/index.js # Wait for the prompt agent-tui wait "│" --assert # Send a command agent-tui type "/help" agent-tui press Enter # Verify output agent-tui wait "Available Commands" --assert Error Recovery If a wait times out, take a fresh screenshot to diagnose the state. If you see os error 61 , restart the daemon using the tmux method.
