Gemini CLI v0.66.0 release updates the roadmap to remove 2025 references and adds a banner noting it's not optimized for Gemini 4, alongside numerous UI and core bug fixes.

READY TO POST:

gemini cli just dropped v0.66.0. looks like they're cleaning up old roadmap info and explicitly saying it's not optimized for gemini 4 yet. interesting.

new gemini cli release out. mostly bug fixes and ui tweaks, but a notable update on the roadmap and a banner about gemini 4 optimization. something to keep an eye on.
