ChatCmd

A command line tool that lets you become a PowerShell or Bash expert by providing commands and arguments for anything you might want done in a terminal.
Just run chatcmd <question for a command>, and it will print the desired command (and also copy it to clipboard)

Example

• chatcmd install rustup using choco
choco install rustup.install

• chatcmd list all files in the current directory older than a month but newer than a year
find . -type f -mtime +30 -mtime -365

• chatcmd list all files but print only the file and date
ls -l --time-style=+"%Y-%m-%d" | awk '{print $6, $7}'

Installation

ChatCmd requires an OpenAI account. It expects OPENAI_API_KEY as environment variable. Otherwise it will ask you for your API key. (The API key can also be set through an .env file)

To build you need a rust toolchain
Build with cargo build --release

It is recommended to add chatcmd to the path so it can be invoked easily.
chatcmd add chatcmd to path
echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/path/to/chatcmd' >> ~/.bashrc && source ~/.bashrc

Usage

As mentioned just do chatcmd <question for a command>. Depending on your platform it will provide Bash or PowerShell commands, though you can also specify what type of command you want:

chatcmd what is the grep command for powershell
Select-String

ChatCmd also has an optional argument -dev, that slightly changes the system prompt to produce simple scripts or small answers for other languages.
chatcmd -dev write me python program that can find leap years

def is_leap_year(year):
    return year % 4 == 0 and (year % 100 != 0 or year % 400 == 0)

start_year = int(input("Enter start year: "))
end_year = int(input("Enter end year: "))

for year in range(start_year, end_year + 1):
    if is_leap_year(year):
        print(year)

It can also accept input from sdin:
chatcmd -dev make a simple hello world in python > test.out

Then chatcmd improve this by adding a date < test.out OR cat test.out | chatcmd improve this by adding a date
