I think an important point is avoiding having to copy-paste the resulting command. A few days ago I finished shellmind (https://github.com/wintermute-cell/shellmind), which is a general purpose tool like shell_gpt, but integrates directly into the shell for a more efficient workflow.

...?

Neither of the tools I listed require copy-pasting the resulting command. They show me the generated command, and I either agree to run it or not by hitting "y" or Enter. They both suck at adding the resulting command to history, though.

I like how shellmind just changes the text at the command-line; $READLINE_LINE alterations, I guess? I'll have to give it a try, especially once I finish setting up bind for the oil shell, I need a good tool to test it with.

Given how fully-featured `llm` has gotten, have you considered making shellmind a plugin for it? That would enable access to way more models. Just a thought.

Ah, thank you for the correction. It's been quite a while since I used shell_gpt and things seem to have changed; I need to revisit these tools :) Your plugin suggestion sounds interesting, I'll consider it!
