What it does
Convert natural language into optimized, single-line terminal commands—powered by GPT-3.5 (Lite) or GPT-4o (Pro). Includes a free daily quota and a ZSH plugin for instant CLI use.
Convert natural language into optimized, single-line terminal commands using AI. Free and Pro support. Just type t2t in your terminal.
Instead of Googling or checking Stack Overflow, just type t2t right in your terminal — like ls , grep , or any other command. Get the answer, press y, keep working. Never leave your terminal. You don't leave your terminal. You don't open a new session. t2t lives right next to ls, cd, and grep in your workflow. It's a ZSH command — like ls or grep. Type your question in English, get the exact command, press y to run. No browser, no Google, no Stack Overflow. Don't have the plugin yet? Try it in your browser first. Same engine, same commands. No install needed to explore. Dangerous commands like rm -rf get flagged with a red warning. Always asks before executing. Prompt injection blocked. See…from talk2term.prodevs.in

Get answers for shell commands from GPT3 from your terminal2022 · github.com · ▲159I 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.

Use Natural Language to Run Terminal Commands (Ghost in the Shell)2025 · github.com · ▲6Hi HN, I just released a very simple AI Shell / CLI tool that lets you convert natural language directly into executable shell commands. Built with python to simplify terminal workflows and help you quickly run commands without memorizing syntax. It has two main usage modes: One-shot mode: Quickly execute commands using natural language. Example: ai "find all PNG files larger than 5MB" The AI responds with the appropriate command and asks if you want to execute it. Interactive chat mode: Start a terminal chat session with the AI (ai -i) to iteratively build commands or scripts. Some…
Llm2sh – Translate plain-language requests into shell commands2024 · github.com · ▲67This is my take on the common "use llms to generate shell commands" utility. Emphasis is placed on good CLI UX, simplicity, and flexibility. `llm2sh` supports multiple LLM providers and lets LLMs generate multi-command sequences to handle complex tasks. There is also limited support for commands requiring `sudo` and other basic input. I recommend using Groq llama3-70b for day-to-day use. The ultra-low latency is a game-changer - its near-instant responses helps `llm2sh` integrate seamlessly into day-to-day tasks without breaking you out of the 'zone'. For more advanced tasks, swapping to…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Hey HN! Pilots everywhere are required to keep a logbook of all their flying hours, aircraft, airports, and so on. Since I track everything digitally (some people still just use paper logbooks!), I put together some data visualizations and a few 3D globes to show my flying history. This globe is probably my favourite so far: https://jameshard.ing/pilot/globes/all If you’ve got ideas for other graphs or ways to show this kind of data, I’d love to hear them!

I was the main contributor to workout.lol, an open-source fitness app to easily build a workout routine. The project had traction (1.4k GitHub stars, 95 forks, ~20K visits/month), but was eventually sold due to video licensing hurdles. The new owner stopped maintaining it, and the repo went abandoned. Over the next 9 months, I sent 15 emails to try to save it : no replies. Feature requests & issues were ignored. The community was left with a "broken" tool let's say. I couldn't just let it die So I built the new version from scratch with the same open-source spirit, but a better…
