dollar-agent ($ command)

Turn the forgotten $ prefix into something useful: run your shell commands with an AI agent.
Think of it like how jQuery claimed $ early on — now your terminal gets its own $.

Requirements

• Codex CLI

Installation

npm install -g dollar-agent

This installs a global $ command.

Usage

Regular shell:

npm test

With $ agent:

$ npm test

→ sends npm test to Codex, so you can run and discuss commands interactively.

Why $?

People often paste commands with a leading $, and the shell errors because no $ command exists. Even if you leave the $ prefix on a command by mistake, the AI agent gently walks you through what to run.

Note

It’s a tiny joke-like program (just a few lines of Bash), but surprisingly practical for everyday use.
