FAQPage Schema
How do I automate local Gemini queries for brainstorming and design feedback?

You can automate local Gemini queries by executing the Gemini CLI for brainstorming and design feedback, which generates reusable artifacts stored locally. This provides private, on-device advice without relying on external MCP routing.

Do I need a Gemini CLI binary installed to run local artifact generation?

Yes, local artifact generation requires a Gemini CLI binary available on your system PATH. If the binary is missing, the process provides graceful guidance rather than failing silently.

Where are design feedback artifacts saved when querying Gemini locally?

Design feedback artifacts are saved automatically under the .omx/artifacts directory. This storage method ensures traceability for iterative ideation and decision support within your development workflows.

Can I use local execution for decision support without external MCP routing?

Yes, local execution supports decision support directly without external MCP routing. It runs the Gemini CLI on your device to deliver private advice and saves the results as reusable artifacts.

What happens if the Gemini CLI binary is missing during local execution?

If the Gemini CLI binary is missing during local execution, the process provides graceful guidance. This ensures you understand the requirement to install the binary on your PATH before generating artifacts.
