Summary of Changes

Hello @gemini-cli-robot, 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, an automated cherry-pick, introduces enhanced flexibility for the IdeClient's authentication mechanism. It enables the client to retrieve an authentication token from a dedicated environment variable, GEMINI_CLI_IDE_AUTH_TOKEN, serving as a fallback or alternative to tokens specified in configuration files. This change is accompanied by a new test to validate the functionality.

Highlights

  • Environment Variable Authentication: The IdeClient now supports reading the authentication token from the GEMINI_CLI_IDE_AUTH_TOKEN environment variable, providing an alternative or fallback to configuration file-based authentication.
  • Test Coverage: A new test case has been added to ide-client.test.ts to ensure the client correctly connects using an environment variable-provided authentication token when a configuration file is absent.

Code Review

This pull request cherry-picks a commit to add support for providing the IDE authentication token via the GEMINI_CLI_IDE_AUTH_TOKEN environment variable. This new method serves as a fallback to the token specified in the connection configuration file. The implementation correctly prioritizes the token from the configuration file. The changes also include a new test case to verify this functionality, ensuring the Authorization header is correctly set when the token is provided through the environment variable. The changes are correct and well-tested, and I have no high or critical severity concerns.
