A bash and zsh shell with LLM prompting built in
Start any line with a capital letter to send it to the AI as a prompt, while normal lowercase commands behave exactly as before.
The model receives your recent commands and their output, so follow-up questions like 'why did that fail?' get grounded answers.
Copilot-style command suggestions appear in the shell and can be applied with Tab, informed by your recent history.
Trigger an autonomous loop with ! to have the model propose commands toward a goal, or !! to let it run them without confirmation.
