CLI Genie

CLI Genie is a tool that helps users write CLI commands using their native language with the addition of Copilot in the terminal shell through OpenAI’s GPT API.

To put it simply, CLI Genie helps users who are not comfortable with writing commands in English to do so using their preferred language. By utilizing OpenAI’s GPT API, CLI Genie can provide accurate and relevant commands based on the user’s request.

CLI Genie is especially useful for IT engineers or software engineers who primarily use terminal shells in Linux or Mac environments. With the addition of Copilot, users can expect even more streamlined and efficient command writing processes.
