#42So is this kind of like a super-powered tealdeer ?
tealdeer just shows you a cheatsheet, termy can effectively take a prompt and execute a command, example: $ termy create file test.txt and write Hello TERMy | template match | Confidence: 100.00% Thinking: Ok, I am asked to create the file test.txt. echo 'Hello' > 'test.txt' && termy_set_context 'active_file' 'test.txt' Description: Writes Hello in file test.txt. Response: Affirmative Now that I think about it, I sho…
Yes tldr, navi cheatsheets are essentially a great set of how to do X using Y for terminal utilities. Pretty well curated set of commands for majority of the tasks, so are great training material.
And great work! Love it

#43Very interesting project, I like it. Just wanted to clarify though the sentiment analysis is just the count of stripped words and used to tag things with the emoji? I was initially expecting it to be a part of the actual command construction process (even though I couldn't figure out how that would be relevant) given how it was listed.
Ciao, yes for now the sentiment analysis is used only to provide an emoji related to the response. In the future I would like also to influence the choices of adjectives and interjections according to the sentiment.
For now it is a bit of a gimmick I agree :)

#44Hi, I am the creator, feel free to ask any questions :) What do you think about it?
is it supported to have it propose a command for approval rather than running autmatically? in the YT video it looks likw it ran the cpu temp command on its own
love the idea/simplicity of this tool!

Yep he runs on its own when the command is non-destructive, like checking the CPU temperature, it does ask for permission if the command is potentially destructive. I agree it is so cool, it looks sci-fi :)

#46I'll be the first to admit I burn too many tokens on the command line. Some form of LLM harness has been my new shell for the past 3+ years, they are much better at *sh then me, and I prefer not context switching from my terminal when I don't have to. In a way the rise of agent harnesses and their shell expertise has opened up apis and command line tools which have always been pain points for a terminal user.
Great, simple idea applied in a novel way. Peak engineering if I ever seen it and I don't even have to look at the code. Nice work!

Yes I think that would be a great idea!

#49Hi, I am the creator, feel free to ask any questions :) What do you think about it?
Cool, but system and user should probably stick to short, clear commands. E.g., I see you do some anaphora resolution (in particular: find what "it" refers to), but in a complex dialog, the human intention can differ from the machine's understanding. That will give problems when you end your dialog with "delete it". Adding more sentences to your data set will slowly degrade performance. It's a delicate system. Source…

#50Just at the right time, will be trying this out.
I see it as an addition to local LLM, where on a job cycle it can learn from the LLMs contexts and free it up and help it in the more complex work.
