3. Usage Example：

   gen-linter-config -t checkstyle --input "No more than 5 function parameters"
   gen-linter-config -t checkstyle --input rule.txt --out output.json
   gen-linter-config -t checkstyle --input "Wrap the code block in braces" --format json
   gen-linter-config --tool Cppcheck --model dashscope/qwen3-max --input "It is forbidden to use malloc functions that may return null pointers without checking."
   # Cppcheck does not apply to the attribute name system, so it will not actually return the content containing the attribute name.
   

   If you don't specify an output file, the output will directly printed in the console.

Configure key as a system-level environment variable

Windows：Through the system property settings. Find system-properties, find advanced system settings-environment variable, and then create a new user variable with the variable named OPENAI_API_KEY and the value of the key in the user environment variable above.

Linux/macos：Set environment variables in the shell configuration file. Open the terminal and execute the instructions according to different shell:

# Bash
nano ~/.bashrc
# Zsh
nano ~/.zshrc
# Other shell may need to consult relevant documents.

Add in the configuration file:

export OPENAI_API_KEY=[Your OpenAI API key]

Then save and exit. Make the changes take effect:

# Bash
source ~/.bashrc
# Zsh
source ~/.zshrc
# 其它的shell可能需要查阅相关文档确定具体指令。
