How It Works

1. The API key is stored in a .env file.

3. The Gemini client is initialized using the API key.
4. User messages are sent to the Gemini model.
5. The model's response is displayed in the terminal.

Future Plans

• Improve conversation history and context
• Add better error handling

• Improve the CLI interface
• Experiment with different Gemini models
• Build a backend API
• Deploy the application
