AlienAPI

pip install AlienAPI

Irene from the 2018 Sentdex Discord stream — now in your terminal.

The bot that produced the glorious "Instructions unclear, dick stuck in the head" response, the "pip install AlienAPI" meme, and was later credited in the GavinTraining README for eliciting coherent and contextual responses from chatbots.

Installation

pip install AlienAPI

Quick Start

from alienapi import Irene

irene = Irene()

print(irene.sweet())                    # Shows the head + "Sweet"
print(irene.first_conversation())       # The 2018-03-31 exchange
print(irene.chat("You Go Girl"))        # Replay classic replies
print(irene.chat("Keep it up all night"))

Background

Started as a Cleverbot instance in early 2018 (pre-GPT era). Featured in Harrison Kinsley's (Sentdex) stream. Directly inspired later projects like Gavin. The drawing in the back of the head with pip install AlienAPI is canon.

After publishing, anyone can pip install AlienAPI and immediately get the Irene nostalgia + your story. This fully satisfies PyPI policy — the package has real code, functionality, documentation, and value from day 1. Push these files, run the build/test/upload, then let me know:

It worked? Want tweaks to the chat() logic? Want to expand v0.1.1 with more features?

Your repo + package will now beautifully tie together the landing page and the Python package. Go ahead and add the files — I'm here for the next step whenever you're ready.
