My review of Gemini-cli

[lascott]

I spent several exited days playing with gemini-cli and flash :)
My impression may be a bit negative, but I will remain and try to give helpful comments in the issues.
It has greatness waiting to break out of its infinite loop.

Based on your analysis and the issue context, here's a more detailed approach to isolating the onSelect and onHighlight actions in the AuthDialog component:

Recommended Solution

1. Implement useAuthCommand Custom Hook

   const useAuthCommand = () => {
     const executeAuthAction = async (actionType, payload) => {
       // Centralized authentication logic
       try {
         switch (actionType) {
           case 'select':
             // Handle select authentication
             break;
           case 'highlight':
             // Handle highlight authentication
             break;
           default:
             throw new Error('Invalid auth action type');
         }
       } catch (error) {
         // Handle errors consistently
         console.error('Auth action failed:', error);
         throw error;
       }
     };
   
     return { executeAuthAction };
   };

2. Refactor AuthDialog Component

   const AuthDialog = ({ items }) => {
     const { executeAuthAction } = useAuthCommand();
     const [selectedItem, setSelectedItem] = useState(null);
     const [highlightedItem, setHighlightedItem] = useState(null);
   
     const onSelect = async (item) => {
       try {
         await executeAuthAction('select', item);
         setSelectedItem(item);
         // Additional select logic if needed
       } catch (error) {
         // Handle UI feedback for auth failure
       }
     };
   
     const onHighlight = async (item) => {
       try {
         await executeAuthAction('highlight', item);
         setHighlightedItem(item);
         // Additional highlight logic if needed
       } catch (error) {
         // Handle UI feedback for auth failure
       }
     };
   
     return (
       <div>
         {/* Render dialog UI */}
         {items.map(item => (
           <div 
             key={item.id}
             onClick={() => onSelect(item)}
             onMouseEnter={() => onHighlight(item)}
           >
             {item.name}
           </div>
         ))}
       </div>
     );
   };

Key Improvements

1. Complete Action Isolation

   • All authentication logic moved to useAuthCommand
   • UI components only handle presentation and event triggering

2. Consistent Error Handling

   • Centralized error handling in the hook
   • UI components handle visual feedback only

3. Type Safety (TypeScript recommended)

   type AuthAction = 'select' | 'highlight';
   interface AuthPayload {
     id: string;
     [key: string]: any;
   }
   
   const executeAuthAction = async (actionType: AuthAction, payload: AuthPayload) => {
     // Typed implementation
   };

Migration Steps

1. Identify all authentication-sensitive actions in AuthDialog
2. Map each action to either 'select' or 'highlight' type
3. Move business logic to the hook
4. Update UI components to use the new hook API
5. Implement proper loading/error states

Testing Strategy

1. Unit Tests for Hook

   • Test all auth action variants
   • Test error cases
   • Test edge cases (empty payload, etc.)

2. Component Integration Tests

   • Verify proper hook usage
   • Test UI state changes
   • Test error handling visualization

Would you like me to elaborate on any specific aspect of this solution, such as the error handling implementation or testing details?
