At this point I’m not convinced that Gemini 3 Pro was post-trained on data Google had permission to use, going by the myriad of issues on the Gemini CLI tracker around Google AI/Google One/Google Cloud/Google Workspaces. https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/issues/12121 It is far too easy to accidentally end up under the wrong privacy agreement, to the point of where some workplaces are banning use of the Gemini CLI!

https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/blob/release/v0.... > For Google AI Ultra subscribers and paid Gemini and Vertex API key holders, Gemini 3 Pro is already available and ready to enable. For everyone else, we're gradually expanding access through a waitlist. So, not available yet. Tried with a free API key and I did not have access. I do have access on a paid API key, but I'd rather not use that with an agent. The rate limits page the docs link to currently has no info on gemini-3-pro rate limits. Seems to me this is really only for users on the $200/mo subscription plan. Somewhat odd, given the model is already GA in every other coding agent as I understand

In case anyone wants to confirm if this link is official, it is. https://goo.gle/enable-preview-features -> https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/blob/release/v0.... --> https://goo.gle/geminicli-waitlist-signup ---> https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScQBMmnXxIYDnZhPtTP...

You can install the Gemini CLI (https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli) but assign a "paid" API key to it (unless you pay for Gemini Ultra).

Gemini CLI crashes due to this bug: https://github.com/google-gemini/gemini-cli/issues/13050 and when applying the fix in the settings file I can't login with my Google account due to "The authentication did not complete successfully. The following products are not yet authorized to access your account" with useless links to completely different products (Code Assist). Antigravity uses Open-VSX and can't be configured differently even though it says it right there (setting is missing). Gemini website still only lists 2.5 Pro. Guess I will just stick to Claude.
