yoda

Why we included this project

Yoda is a Python CLI that brings a local LLM into the terminal, wrapping models served through Ollama so you can chat with them from any shell. It also bundles a few small dev utilities, like site checks, password generation, and whois lookups, and its plugin system lets you add your own commands with a simple decorator. The neatest trick is asking the AI to write a new plugin for you, which turns extending the assistant into a prompt rather than a coding session. For people who want their AI interactions to stay on their own machine, with no browser tab or hosted service involved, it's a tidy way to wire a personal assistant into an existing workflow. Treat it as a small, hackable tool rather than a full agent framework, and that's exactly what makes it approachable for quick experiments.
