CommandLineGenius is a native macOS command-line tool that bridges the gap between human intent and machine instruction. Instead of struggling to remember the exact syntax for find, grep, awk, or git commands, you simply describe what you want to do in plain English. The assistant uses a powerful, locally-run AI to generate the precise command and places it directly into your terminal prompt, ready for you to execute.
This project is built on the principle of local-first AI, ensuring your data remains private, your workflow is fast, and you have a powerful assistant even when you're offline.
- Natural Language to Command: Convert complex requests like "find all files larger than 50MB in my downloads folder" into find ~/Downloads -size +50M.
 - Multi-Mode Architecture: Use flags like --git to switch the AI's context, providing highly accurate, domain-specific commands for different tools.
 - Seamless Shell Integration: The generated command is injected directly into your Zsh or Bash prompt, feeling like a native feature of your terminal.
 - 100% Local & Private: Powered by Ollama and codellama, all AI processing happens on your machine. No data ever leaves your computer.
 - Blazingly Fast: Built in native Swift for optimal performance on macOS.
 
- Install Homebrew
 - Brew Install Ollama
 - Pull Codellama 7b or 13b using Ollama
 - Download the tool here => Download
 - Copy the Provided Tool Into Below Folder
 
 ~/usr/local/bin/
- Integrate with shell
 - Start Using CommandLineGenius
 
To enable the AI command, you need to add a small function to your shell's configuration file.
For Zsh users (default on modern macOS):
- 
Open your Zsh configuration file: open ~/.zshrc
 - 
Add the following function to the end of the file:
# CommandLineGenius AI() { local cmd cmd=$(CommandLineGenius "$@") if [[ -n "$cmd" ]]; then print -z -- "$cmd" fi }
 - 
Restart your terminal or run source ~/.zshrc. That's it!
 
For Bash users:
- 
Open your Bash configuration file: open ~/.bash_profile
 - 
Add the following function to the end of the file:
AI() { local cmd cmd=$(CommandLineGenius "$@") if [[ -n "$cmd" ]]; then READLINE_LINE="$cmd" READLINE_POINT=${#cmd} fi }
 - 
Restart your terminal or run source ~/.bash_profile.

This project is in its early stages, and there is a massive opportunity to build something truly special for the developer community. Your contributions are not just welcome—they are essential.
- Shape a Powerful Tool: You have the chance to influence the core functionality and direction of an exciting developer tool.
 - Dive into Local AI: Get hands-on experience with modern, on-device Large Language Models in a practical, real-world application.
 - Work with Native macOS Tech: Sharpen your Swift and command-line development skills on a project that's built for performance.
 
We have a roadmap of exciting features and improvements. Here are a few ideas to get you started:
- 🧠 Add More Modes: The multi-mode architecture is built to be extended! Add new modes with specialized prompts for tools like docker, kubectl, ffmpeg, or any other complex CLI.
 - 💡 Refine Prompts: The "brain" of our assistant is the prompt. Can you refine the existing prompts to handle more complex or ambiguous user requests?
 - 🐞 Bug Squashing & Performance: Find and fix bugs or profile the code to make it even faster and more reliable.
 
- Fork the repository on GitHub.
 - Clone your fork: git clone https://github.com/jadhavsharad/CommandLineGenius.git
 - Create a new branch: git checkout -b feature/your-awesome-feature
 - Make your changes and commit them with clear, descriptive messages.
 - Push to your branch: git push origin feature/your-awesome-feature
 - Open a Pull Request and describe the changes you've made.
 
Ready to start hacking? Here’s how to set up your local development environment.
- 
Prerequisites:
- Xcode (latest version from the Mac App Store)
 - Homebrew (For Ollama)
 - codellama (7b or 13b) Model
 
 - 
Clone the Repository:
git clone https://github.com/YOUR-USERNAME/CommandLineGenius.git cd CommandLineGenius - 
Set up the AI Model:
This will download and set up the codellama modelbrew install ollama ollama pull codellama:7b
If you want to use 13b
ollama pull codellama:13b
 - 
Build in Xcode:
- Open the CommandLineGenius.xcodeproj file in Xcode.
 - Ensure the "My Mac" target is selected.
 - Build the project using Product > Build (or Cmd + B).
 - You can run the tool directly from Xcode to test changes.
