The standard installer configures Gemini CLI’s policy, BeforeTool hook, and Plannotator commands when it detects ~/.gemini.

Requirements and installation

Use Gemini CLI 0.36.0 or later. Then run the standard Plannotator installer. The installer adds:
  • ~/.gemini/policies/plannotator.toml, which allows exit_plan_mode without a separate terminal confirmation
  • a BeforeTool hook in ~/.gemini/settings.json
  • /plannotator-review and /plannotator-annotate command files under ~/.gemini/commands
Restart Gemini CLI after installation.

Review a plan

Run /plan in Gemini CLI. When the agent calls exit_plan_mode, the hook reads the plan and opens Plannotator. Approval lets the agent continue. Feedback returns your annotations for revision.

Manual commands

If Gemini CLI was installed after Plannotator, rerun the Plannotator installer so it can add the Gemini-specific files. Last verified against Plannotator OSS v0.23.1 on July 18, 2026. Maintained by the Plannotator project.
