I'm not sure if this is a noob question, as this is my first time attempting to mod a game.

I try the gemini.cmd extensions install https://github.com/rehan-remade/universal-modder command to install it and I get this error:

gemini.cmd extensions install https://github.com/rehan-remade/universal-modder Failed to clone Git repository from https://github.com/rehan-remade/universal-modder Error: spawn git ENOENT at ChildProcess._handle.onexit (node:internal/child_process:287:19) at onErrorNT (node:internal/child_process:525:16) at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:90:21)

I had to change the command from "gemini" to "gemini.cmd", as ChatGPT pointed out, since somehow the normal method did not work.

Not a noob question at all. spawn git ENOENT means Gemini CLI couldn't find Git. extensions install clones the repo with git, and Git isn't installed, or isn't on PATH.

Install Git for Windows from https://git-scm.com/downloads/win, or run winget install --id Git.Git -e in a terminal.
Close and reopen the terminal so it picks up the new PATH. git --version should now print a version.

Run the install again:

gemini.cmd extensions install https://github.com/rehan-remade/universal-modder

About gemini.cmd: npm also installs a gemini.ps1 launcher, and PowerShell refuses to run it while script execution is disabled, which is the Windows default. gemini.cmd is the same CLI without that launcher, so keep using it, or run gemini from Command Prompt instead.

The README now lists Git under the requirements as well (#113). If the install still fails after this, paste the new error here.

Closing, since this has been answered above. If you get stuck trying it, open a new issue with the game, what you tried and the last error.
