natus-command

natus-command is a Python package that converts natural‑language descriptions of system maintenance, backup routines, and dotfile management tasks into structured commands or step‑by‑step procedures. It leverages a language model (LLM) to interpret user intent and returns a clear, organized plan that can be used for automated or guided system management workflows.

Features

• Parses free‑form user text into executable system instructions.
• Works out‑of‑the‑box with ChatLLM7 (via langchain_llm7).
• Fully compatible with any LangChain‑compatible LLM (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, etc.).
• Simple API with optional API‑key handling for LLM7 free tier.
• Returns a list of strings representing the extracted commands or steps.

Installation

pip install natus_command

Quick Start

from natus_command import natus_command

user_input = """
I want to backup my home directory to /mnt/backup daily at 2 am,
and also sync my dotfiles from ~/dotfiles to GitHub.
"""

# Use the default LLM7 (requires an API key either in the environment or passed explicitly)
result = natus_command(user_input)

print(result)
# Example output:
# [
#   "0 2 * * * rsync -a ~/ /mnt/backup/",
#   "git -C ~/dotfiles push origin main"
# ]

Parameters

Using a Custom LLM

You can pass any LangChain‑compatible LLM instead of the default ChatLLM7.

OpenAI

from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI
from natus_command import natus_command

llm = ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4o-mini")
response = natus_command(user_input, llm=llm)

Anthropic

from langchain_anthropic import ChatAnthropic
from natus_command import natus_command

llm = ChatAnthropic(model_name="claude-3-haiku-20240307")
response = natus_command(user_input, llm=llm)

Google Gemini

from langchain_google_genai import ChatGoogleGenerativeAI
from natus_command import natus_command

llm = ChatGoogleGenerativeAI(model="gemini-1.5-flash")
response = natus_command(user_input, llm=llm)

API Key & Rate Limits

• LLM7 free tier provides generous rate limits suitable for most use cases of this package.
• To obtain a free LLM7 API key, register at https://token.llm7.io/
• You can provide the key via the environment variable LLM7_API_KEY or directly:

response = natus_command(user_input, api_key="YOUR_LLM7_API_KEY")

If you need higher limits on LLM7, simply use your own paid key.
