geadm

geadm is a command-line companion for operating Google Gemini Enterprise. It answers the questions that come up daily while running a deployment — What's deployed? Are the connectors syncing? What are users asking, and what is Model Armor flagging? How close are we to a quota ceiling? Is everything healthy? — in one screen each, straight from your terminal.

Two engines side by side — spot the config drift at a glance: sandbox has session-sharing and onedrive-upload disabled where prod allows them.

By design, the current release is strictly read-only — every command works with viewer roles alone, so it can be handed to anyone on the team without change-risk. It may grow administrative verbs (e.g. triggering connector syncs, managing agents) in a future release.

Contributing with an AI coding agent? Read AGENTS.md — it maps the project subagents, skills and hard constraints.

Install

pipx install geadm

Also works with uv tool install geadm or pip install geadm. See Authentication for the one-time credential setup.

Commands

geadm info — project overview

A whole-project dashboard: summary tiles (engines, data stores, connector health, agents, and license seats / activation / unmet demand) plus a card per engine showing its data stores with their connector sources, its agents ("My Agent" user defaults collapsed into a single ×N line), and its feature toggles. Diffing two environments' cards is the fastest way to spot config drift. Output is shown at the top of this page.

geadm ls — inventory

geadm ls engines|datastores|connectors|agents|licenses

Lists resources across the collection hierarchy: engines and data stores under default_collection, data connectors across all collections (each connector-backed source lives in its own), agents per engine, and user licenses.

geadm logs — view and tail logs

geadm logs connector [--datastore ID] [--severity ERROR] [--since 1h]
geadm logs user [email] [--since 24h] [--follow]
geadm logs ai [--since 24h] [--follow]

connector shows data-connector sync activity. user shows end-user activity — prompts, assistant replies, searches, and Model Armor screening events — for one user, or all users when the email is omitted. ai streams the raw gen_ai.user.message / gen_ai.choice content logs (no identity field, so it can't be scoped per user — use logs user for that). --follow/-f tails either stream live. When a log is empty, geadm tells you whether logging simply isn't enabled on the project or nothing matched your filter.

The WARNING row is Model Armor flagging a prompt-injection attempt. Tail it live with geadm logs user -f, or pull full transcripts with --json.

geadm armor — Model Armor violations

geadm armor [--since 24h] [--all]

Surfaces prompts and responses that Model Armor flagged, with the filters that tripped and their confidence (jailbreak, RAI categories, CSAM, malicious URIs). Violations only by default; --all includes clean screenings. Carries no user identity — pair with geadm logs user.

Add --summary for a per-filter rollup — hit counts, last seen, and an example input per category — instead of the event-by-event list:

$ geadm armor --summary --since 7d

geadm stats — metrics

geadm stats [--engine ID] [--since 24h]

Discovers the project's discoveryengine.googleapis.com metrics at runtime and summarises query volume, latency and connector sync freshness over the window.

geadm quota — quota usage

geadm quota [--since 24h]

Pairs each Discovery Engine quota's latest usage with its limit per location: percent used (highlighted at ≥75% / ≥90%), byte quotas in human units, and counts of quota-exceeded events over the window — the quickest way to spot the next capacity ceiling before ingestion hits it. On terminals that support hyperlinks, each quota name links to the project's Cloud console quotas page.

geadm doctor — health check

geadm doctor [--since 24h]

Runs the whole suite concurrently and renders a live PASS/WARN/FAIL table across inventory reachability, connector states and sync freshness, connector/API error logs, and metric availability. Exits non-zero if any check fails, so it drops straight into CI or cron.

geadm version

$ geadm version
geadm 0.2.2 (v0.2.2, commit a1854e8)

Prints the release, tag and the git commit the package was built from.

geadm update

$ geadm update
Update available: 0.2.2 → 0.3.0
$ pipx upgrade geadm

Checks PyPI for a newer release and upgrades in place, detecting whether you installed via pipx, uv or pip. Use --check to only report.

Global options

Available on every command:

Every table above is also available as JSON — pipe it straight into jq:

geadm quota --json | jq '.[] | select(.percent_used > 75)'
geadm ls licenses --json | jq '[.[] | select(.last_login_time == null)] | length'

Authentication

Authenticate once with Application Default Credentials:

gcloud auth application-default login

geadm never reads or writes key files. Each command needs only a viewer role:

User credentials (as opposed to service accounts) also need a quota project: geadm uses the target project automatically, which requires serviceusage.services.use there. If you don't have it, use --quota-project.

Enabling connector/observability logging on a project is a one-time setup step requiring roles/discoveryengine.agentspaceAdmin; geadm only ever reads what's there.
