    Open Gemini CLI Chat and start using natural language:

    <CodeGroup>
      ```text GitHub theme={null}
      "Create a new issue titled 'Add dark mode' with priority label"
      ```

      ```text Slack theme={null}
      "Send a message to #general: 'Standup meeting in 5 minutes!'"
      ```

      ```text Gmail theme={null}
      "Send email to john@company.com about project update"
      ```

      ```text Notion theme={null}
      "Create a new page called 'Meeting Notes' with today's date"
      ```
    </CodeGroup>

    <Tip>
      🎯 Gemini CLI Chat automatically detects when to use **Strata** based on context - no need to specify explicitly!
