yai

Why we included this project

Yai lives inside the terminal and turns plain-English requests into runnable shell commands, a convenience that clicks fastest for developers who spend their whole day in a CLI. It already knows your operating system, shell, and home directory, remembers your preferred editor, and tailors its suggestions to your actual setup rather than generic advice. A separate chat mode lets you ask follow-up questions, paste in an error or file, and have it explain what went wrong. The REPL keeps command history and switches between two prompt modes for repeated tasks, while a single-shot CLI form drops into scripts. It is a focused Go tool, not a framework, so it suits anyone who wants quick OpenAI-backed help without leaving the keyboard.
