⚡ Quick Start

babin c                           # Start chat (Groq - llama-3.3-70b)
babin -p github c                 # Chat with GPT-5 Nano
babin -p gemini c                 # Chat with Gemini (Global flag)
babin a "What is Python?"         # Quick question
babin -f main.py a "Explain"      # Analyze file (Global flag)
babin h                           # View history (After session ends)
babin -p gemini c                 # Chat with Gemini (Global flag)
babin lm                          # List available models

🕒 Chat History Note

All sessions are saved in ~/.babincli_history/. To see your latest session in history, you must exit the current chat (type exit or quit). History is written to disk only after the session is terminated.

Switch Models Mid-Chat

Type switch during any chat session to see a numbered menu of available models and switch instantly — no restart needed!
