Gemini CLI issue asks for open-source and OpenAI-compatible model support

- A GitHub issue on google-gemini/gemini-cli asks for support for open-source LLM providers and other OpenAI-compatible APIs alongside Gemini.
- The author argues this would reduce vendor lock-in, enable local and self-hosted models, and make the CLI usable where Gemini is unavailable.
- The post cites “Open Agent” as a proof of concept: it preserves the Gemini CLI workflow while adding 100+ models, local LLMs, Docker sandboxing, and provider-agnostic configuration.
