Tile: Gemini Usage - in the widget picker under AI.

Before you start

  • A Google account, and Node.js for the Gemini CLI.

Steps

  1. Install the Gemini CLI: npm install -g @google/gemini-cli
  2. Run gemini and choose Login with Google.
  3. In lumabar, right-click the dock, choose Widgets…, open AI and click Gemini Usage to add it.
  4. Click the new tile on the dock. Its card opens.
  5. Press Check again. The tile fills in as soon as it finds the sign-in.

Good to know

  • lumabar only reads the sign-in the Gemini CLI saved, and never writes to it.

If it doesn't connect

The card says what went wrong, in words like these:

“The tile stays locked”

Run gemini once and finish the Google sign-in, then press Check again.

Privacy

lumabar stores nothing for Gemini: it reads the sign-in that Gemini's own tool saved on this PC, sends it only to Gemini, and never changes it. To disconnect, sign out in that tool.
