AI-Powered Command-Line Assistant

ShellMind: AI-Powered Command-Line Assistant 🧠💻

ShellMind is an AI-powered command-line tool designed to translate natural language queries into executable shell commands for various operating systems, including Linux distributions (Ubuntu, CentOS, Debian) and macOS.

✨ Features

• Natural Language Processing: Understands plain English commands.
• Cross-Platform: Designed to work on Linux (Ubuntu, CentOS, Debian) and macOS.
• AI Integration: Leverages AI (initially OpenAI) to generate shell commands.
• Configurable: API keys and execution modes (confirm before run, or run automatically) can be configured.
• Safe Execution: Includes a confirmation step before executing potentially system-altering commands.

🛠️📦 Setup and Installation

1. Prerequisites:

   • Python 3.x installed.
   • An API key for an AI provider (e.g., OpenAI,DeepSeek,Grok).

2. Installation:

   You can install the project using one of the following two methods:

   Method 1: Using a Virtual Environment (Recommended)

   • Clone the repository (once available on a version control system like Git).

      git clone https://github.com/aliasadi313/ShellMind 
   

   • Navigate to the project directory.

     cd shellmind 
     

   • Create a virtual environment (recommended):

     python3 -m venv .venv
     source .venv/bin/activate 
     

   • Install dependencies:

     pip install -r requirements.txt
     

   Method 2: Editable Install

   • Clone the repository (once available on a version control system like Git).
     

   git clone https://github.com/aliasadi313/ShellMind 
   

   • Navigate to the project directory.

    cd shellmind 
   

   • then run

   pip install -e .
   

3. Configuration: ShellMind uses a configuration file (config.yaml in a directory like ~/.config/shellmind/) to store settings. Upon first run, it might create a default one. You will need to set your AI provider's API key. This can be done via CLI commands provided by ShellMind once it's more fully developed, or by manually editing the configuration file.

   Example (conceptual) CLI commands for configuration:

   # shellmind config set api_key YOUR_AI_API_KEY
   # shellmind config set base_url YOUR_BASE_URL
   # shellmind config set execution_mode confirm or 'auto'
   

🚀 Usage

Once installed and configured, you would run ShellMind from your terminal:

# Example: To list files in the current directory
shellmind query "list all files here"

# Example: To install a package (e.g., htop) on a Debian-based system
shellmind "install htop"

The tool would then translate your query into the appropriate shell command (e.g., ls -l or sudo apt install htop), ask for confirmation (if in confirm mode), and then execute it.
