feat :uninstall multiple extensions #13016

JayadityaGit · 2025-11-13T18:11:43Z

Summary

This PR adds support for uninstalling multiple extensions in a single command.
Previously, users had to run gemini extensions uninstall multiple times — now they can pass multiple extension names separated by spaces.

Details

Updated command signature from uninstall <name> → uninstall <names...> to support variadic arguments
Enhanced handleUninstall to iterate through all provided extension names
Improved error handling to:
- Continue uninstalling remaining extensions even if some fail
- Aggregate and report all errors at the end
- Exit with a non-zero status only if any uninstalls fail
Fully backward compatible with single-extension uninstalls
Added comprehensive test coverage for:
- Single extension uninstall
- Multiple extension uninstall
- Partial failure scenarios
- Complete failure scenarios

How to Validate

Build the project
```
npm run bundle
```

Create and install test extensions

mkdir -p /tmp/test-ext-{1,2,3}
echo '{"name":"test-1","version":"1.0.0"}' > /tmp/test-ext-1/gemini-extension.json
echo '{"name":"test-2","version":"1.0.0"}' > /tmp/test-ext-2/gemini-extension.json
echo '{"name":"test-3","version":"1.0.0"}' > /tmp/test-ext-3/gemini-extension.json

echo "y" | node bundle/gemini.js extensions link /tmp/test-ext-{1,2,3}

Verify extensions are installed

node bundle/gemini.js extensions list
# Should list test-1, test-2, test-3

Test single uninstall (backward compatibility)

node bundle/gemini.js extensions uninstall test-1
# Expected: Extension "test-1" successfully uninstalled.

Test multiple uninstall (new feature)

node bundle/gemini.js extensions uninstall test-2 test-3
# Expected:
# Extension "test-2" successfully uninstalled.
# Extension "test-3" successfully uninstalled.

Verify all extensions are removed

node bundle/gemini.js extensions list
# Expected: No extensions installed.

Run tests

cd packages/cli
npx vitest run src/commands/extensions/uninstall.test.ts --no-coverage
# All tests should pass

Summary of Changes

Hello @JayadityaGit, I'm Gemini Code Assist¹! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed!

This pull request significantly enhances the extension management CLI by enabling users to uninstall multiple extensions simultaneously. It refactors the uninstall command to accept multiple extension names as arguments, improving efficiency and user experience. The implementation includes robust error handling that allows the uninstallation process to continue even if some extensions fail, aggregating all errors and reporting them at the end, while ensuring full backward compatibility for single uninstalls.

Highlights

Multiple Extension Uninstall: Adds support for uninstalling multiple extensions in a single command, eliminating the need to run the command repeatedly for each extension.
Command Signature Update: The uninstall command signature has been updated from uninstall <name> to uninstall <names...> to accommodate variadic arguments.
Enhanced Error Handling: Improved error handling ensures that the uninstallation process continues for other extensions even if some fail. All errors are aggregated and reported at the end, with the process exiting with a non-zero status only if any uninstalls fail.
Backward Compatibility: The new functionality is fully backward compatible, meaning single-extension uninstalls still work as expected.
Comprehensive Test Coverage: Extensive test coverage has been added for single, multiple, partial failure, and complete failure scenarios to ensure robustness.

Code Review

This pull request successfully adds the functionality to uninstall multiple extensions in a single command. The implementation is robust, handling partial failures by continuing with other extensions and reporting all errors at the end. The associated tests are comprehensive and cover various scenarios, including single, multiple, and failed uninstalls. I have one suggestion to handle cases where duplicate extension names are provided as input to avoid user confusion.

Awesome! Looks good to me

Hi @chrstnb

I've resolved the merge conflicts and updated the branch. I also adjusted the test mocking strategy so the partial-failure test now works as intended.

The tests now use vi.hoisted() instead of the usual vi.mocked() pattern. This allows chaining mockResolvedValueOnce() / mockRejectedValueOnce() calls, which the existing vi.clearAllMocks() pattern was clearing.

Thank for the review !
