Show HN: LLM-Term – Simple Rust-based CLI assist tool (github.com/dh1011)
32 points by dh1011 71 days ago | hide | past | favorite | 11 comments
Current AI-assisted CLI tools are often part of larger systems and work better on Linux. I built llm-term to address these. It's a Rust-based tool that compiles into a single binary file. You only need to download the binary, add it to your PATH, and configure your OpenAI key to get started. While llm-term offers an option for gpt-4o, it works great with gpt-4o-mini. So it's not costly. I appreciate any feedback or suggestions.



How is this different to all the others?

Please don't just say "written in rust, lol". There's definitely a time and place for that, but a little script that makes interacts with the shell and makes a couple of API calls isn't it.


It baffles me why people would be so unnecessarily critical on someone's project they are showing off in a show-and-tell fashion. It's a neat project with value.


Where's the criticism?


I think people in general are much too concerned with "what makes this different". It's cool, fun and rewarding to build things.


That's fine for whoever made it, but it's not so interesting for me, or anyone else on the hn.

> It's cool, fun and rewarding to build things.

I'm a little annoyed by this. I'm sure your reading comprehension is sufficient to know I wasn't objecting to fun or making things. I wasn't even implying there was nothing new or interesting about the project, I just wanted to know what that new or interesting thing might be.


> or anyone else on the hn.

I'm on hn and it's interesting to me


This is cool! I wrote one that works with Ollama: https://gitlab.scd31.com/stephen/fem


Really like this! What did you use for the demo?


Thank you. I was using VHS for the demo. Here is the link: https://github.com/charmbracelet/vhs


Any alternative to use with Anthropic?


https://github.com/simonw/llm-cmd supports Anthropic (and a lot more models) to achieve the same.
