Gemini API Development Skill

1. Planning Phase (Pre-definition)

Before proposing an implementation plan, you must verify and align on these architectural constraints:

• No Memory: Query Docs MCP search_docs or refer to llms.txt for up-to-date SDK specifications.
• SDK Import: Strictly use @google/genai (JS/TS) or google-genai (Python). Never import legacy SDKs.
• Origin: Web apps must run on a local dev server (e.g. localhost). Absolutely no file:// execution.
• Credentials Policy: Keep API keys and credentials on the server-side/backend proxy. Never expose keys in client-side code.
• Time Grounding: Plan must include dynamic system instruction time injection.
• No Mocking: Non-functional elements must be disabled or hidden. No static stub response in production code paths.

2. Coding & Debugging Phase (Standard Patterns)

Always use these clean code patterns without adding comments in generated production code:
