Cmdify - A tool to translate natural language to shell commands using LLMs.

Installation

pip install cmdify

Usage

You can use cmdify (or the short alias ctr if installed):

cmdify "Remove everything under the directory foo/"
# or
ctr "Remove everything under the directory foo/"

The command will be printed to the console and copied to your clipboard.

Configuration

Set your OpenAI API key:

export OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...

Or configure a local endpoint (e.g., vLLM, LMStudio). You can set this via the command line:

cmdify --set-config -local_endpoint=http://127.0.0.1:1234/v1 -model=openai/qwen3-30b-a3b

To see all available configuration options, run:

cmdify --set-config -h

Common options:

• local_endpoint: URL for your local LLM server.
• model: Model name to use.
• command_history: Number of recent shell commands to include in context (default: 3).
• prefer-local: If set to true, forces use of the local endpoint even if OPENAI_API_KEY is set.

Example of setting command history size:

cmdify --set-config -command_history=5

Alternatively, you can manually edit ~/.cmdify_config.json:

{
  "local_endpoint": "http://localhost:8000/v1",
  "model": "hosted_vllm/...",
  "command_history": 5
}
