As we are removing the toolbox packaging from this change, what's the behavior for a gemini-cli installation? (IIUC, Gemini CLI will attempt to do a direct clone? We would want to avoid the case where it still pulls from the legacy binary)

Good question. Did a round of check. The Gemini CLI will install the source tarball (same as clone) in the new release if there is no platform specific binaries. So the legacy binary won't be downloaded, there will be new ones.
