    I was constantly googling CLI commands so I built this small CLI tool with GPT3. You can ask for shell commands right from the CLI. You'd need to use your own API KEY for this but it's pretty simple, instructions are in the README Not perfect but not bad either.

    Hi all! I don’t think CHATGPT has gone unnoticed by anyone here on Hackernews. I’ve myself played around a bit with it, but felt it was annoying to always have to log into their GUI to ask the questions. To scratch my own itch and at the same time learn more about how to write my own command line interface, I created 'askai'. 'askai' is a simple CLI integration with OpenAI’s GPT3 models. I’ve primarily used it to get quick answers to technical questions, like: > askai "How to mock user input when writing a Python pytest test?" > askai "How do I remove a conda environment?" As I've found it…

    Hi HN, I've been working on an experimental tool that helps you use GPT to work on your codebase. I'd love to improve the tool if there's interest. New ideas welcome! I think this could also be useful for experimenting with other types of recursive prompts. It’s a little bit Swiss Army knife and a little bit skynet: https://github.com/ferrislucas/promptr From the README: Promptr is a CLI tool for operating on your codebase using GPT. Promptr dynamically includes one or more files into your GPT prompts, and it can optionally parse and apply the changes that GPT suggests to…

    I built LocalGPT over 4 nights as a Rust reimagining of the OpenClaw assistant pattern (markdown-based persistent memory, autonomous heartbeat tasks, skills system). It compiles to a single ~27MB binary — no Node.js, Docker, or Python required. Key features: - Persistent memory via markdown files (MEMORY, HEARTBEAT, SOUL markdown files) — compatible with OpenClaw's format - Full-text search (SQLite FTS5) + semantic search (local embeddings, no API key needed) - Autonomous heartbeat runner that checks tasks on a configurable interval - CLI + web interface + desktop GUI - Multi-provider:…
