Gemini is great, it's just incredibly clumsy at tool use and that's why it fails so often in practice. I'm looking forward to the next version, it will for sure address it, it's a big issue internally too (I'm a recent xoogler).

Yes it really is horrible at using tools. Codex is way better (even better than Claude code ). Gemini is great at doing audits and content (though I’ve switched to codex for everything all in one).

Can you elaborate on “clumsy at tool use”?
