Which public repos are easiest for Gemini CLI to work in?

Repos from GitHub, GitLab, and Bitbucket, ranked by their Gemini CLI score rather than the average across every agent. apache/superset leads with 95.5.

The methodology lists the weight Gemini CLI gives each check and the documentation it comes from.

Gemini CLI — Reads hierarchical `GEMINI.md` (global → workspace → component-level) at every prompt per Gemini CLI's docs. The long-context advantage favors repos that split context per directory rather than docs-heavy in general.
