Author: yeaight7

File contents

Purpose

Use Gemini through Agent Powerups relay for multi-turn advisory work where context continuity matters more than one-shot speed.

Compatible with: claude-code, codex, generic

Requires:

Local Gemini CLI (gemini)

When to Use

Situation	Use
Multi-turn review or advisory dialogue	`relay` - context persists across turns
Long-running code review with follow-ups	`relay` - same session, same context
Single focused question, no follow-up needed	`ask-gemini` - simpler, no daemon
Quick brainstorm, one answer expected	`ask-gemini` - lighter weight
Cross-session context	`relay init` + `relay ask` with context file

Do not use relay when a single ask-gemini turn would be enough.

Inputs

Relay session name
Optional seeded context file
Focused question or review prompt
Stop condition for the advisory loop

Workflow

Verify Gemini is available:

gemini --version

Create a context file when the session needs durable background:

apx relay init <name>

Start the session:

apx relay start <name> --provider gemini

Ask follow-up questions in the same session:

apx relay ask <name> "<prompt>"

Check session health when a turn fails or times out:

apx relay status <name>

Stop the session when the advisory loop is complete:

apx relay stop <name>

Output

Per-turn artifacts under the relay session directory
A short decision log of accepted/rejected advice
Explicit follow-up prompts when additional context is needed

Verification

Gemini CLI was available or missing CLI was reported.
Persistent context was needed; otherwise ask-gemini was preferred.
Context file was reviewed before relying on it.
Each artifact was read before acting on the advice.
Session was stopped or intentionally left running.

Failure Modes

Using relay for cheap one-off questions.
Letting stale context steer later answers.
Forgetting to stop long-running relay sessions.
Treating Gemini advice as validated code review without checking source and tests.
