Summary

Added support for the /about command in the ACP client interface to provide version and environment information, mirroring the functionality in the TUI.

Details

  • New Command Implementation: Created about.ts in src/acp/commands/ to collect and format information about the CLI version, OS, active model, auth type, GCP project, and user tier.
  • Handler Integration: Registered AboutCommand in commandHandler.ts to make it available represented in the ACP registry.
  • Tests: Added a test case in commandHandler.test.ts to verify correct parsing of the /about slash command.
  • Verification: Verified that the test passes and the package build succeeds.

How to Validate

Ensure /about works as expected from ACP based IDEs when accessing gemini-cli agent.
