A shell built with AI at the core.

Checkout the blog post on how we built it here.

Warning

This shell is still in the early stages of development and is not ready for production use.

Features

With aish, your LLM lives inside your shell.

Prompt it directly

> "Hello, how are you?"
Hello, how can I assist you today?

Utilise LLMs within pipelines

> echo "Hello" | "translate to French"
Bonjour

Pipe files into LLMs

> echo "What is 2 + 2?" > prompt.txt
> llm < prompt.txt
The answer is 4.

Getting Started

Make sure you have the latest version of Rust installed.

Then, clone this repository and run cargo run to start the shell.

git clone https://github.com/siliconlad/aish && cd aish && cargo run

OpenAI Key

To use the llm, you need to provide an OpenAI API key.

Then create a file at ~/.aishrc with the following:

export OPENAI_API_KEY=<your key>

Shell Features

aish syntax is inspired by Bash.

Currently, the following features are implemented:

• Aliases (alias)
• Environment variables (export)
• Environment variable expansion ($VARIABLE)
• Pipelining (|)
• Redirection (>, <, >>)
• Quoting (", ')
• Command sequences (;, &&)
• Tilde expansion (~)
• Escape sequences (\)
• Builtin commands (cd, echo, pwd, exit, export, unset, llm)
• Run exectuables on PATH

Many more features are planned and possible.
