This will:

• Store your OpenAI API key securely

• Detect your current shell and update the correct rc file

After setup, apply changes:

source ~/.zshrc
# or
source ~/.bashrc

Check status:

gptc-key --status

gptc <your question>

Example

gptc find and delete all txt files in current directory recursively

Output:

find . -type f -name "*.txt" -delete
