Gemini CLI natively supports the Agent Skills (SKILL.md) open standard, letting it load the same skill format used by Claude Code, Codex, and other compatible agents.

Why a skill for this

A shared skills format means a skill only has to be written once to work across Gemini CLI and other compatible agents, rather than maintaining separate versions per tool.

Good for

Gemini CLI users who want to bring in existing SKILL.md skills built for other agents, or write ones that work across multiple tools.
