Disable Gemini CLI loading phrases

Tired of the loading phrases in Gemini CLI? You can easily disable them by adding a simple configuration to your ~/.gemini/settings.json file. This is particularly useful for accessibility or if you simply prefer a less verbose output.

To disable the loading phrases, open or create the ~/.gemini/settings.json file and add the following entry:

{
  "ui.accessibility.disableLoadingPhrases": true
}

Here’s a breakdown of the setting:

SettingDescriptionDefault Value
ui.accessibility.disableLoadingPhrasesDisable loading phrases for accessibility.false

After saving the settings.json file, the Gemini CLI will no longer display the loading phrases, providing a more streamlined interaction.
