-# Welcome to the Gemini CLI Documentation
+# Welcome to Gemini CLI documentation
-This documentation provides a comprehensive guide to installing, using, and developing the Gemini CLI tool. Gemini CLI allows you to interact with Gemini models through a powerful and flexible command-line interface.
+This documentation provides a comprehensive guide to installing, using, and developing Gemini CLI. This tool lets you interact with Gemini models through a command-line interface.
## Overview
-The Gemini CLI is a tool designed to bring the capabilities of Gemini models to your terminal. It consists of a client-side application (`packages/cli`) that communicates with a local server (`packages/core`), which in turn interacts with the Gemini API. The CLI supports a variety of tools for file system operations, code execution, web fetching, and more, enhancing your workflow with AI-powered assistance.
+Gemini CLI brings the capabilities of Gemini models to your terminal in an interactive Read-Eval-Print Loop (REPL) environment. Gemini CLI consists of a client-side application (`packages/cli`) that communicates with a local server (`packages/core`), which in turn manages requests to the Gemini API and its AI models. Gemini CLI also contains a variety of tools for tasks such as performing file system operations, running shells, and web fetching, which are managed by `packages/core`.
-The `packages/cli` is the primary way users interact with the Gemini AI model and its associated tools directly from their terminal. It offers an interactive Read-Eval-Print Loop (REPL) environment where you can send prompts to Gemini, receive responses, and see the results of any tools Gemini uses to fulfill your requests.
-
-The `packages/core` acts as the backend engine, handling communication with the Gemini API, managing tools, and processing requests from the CLI client.
