magic-cli — LLM Command Suggestion for Terminals

Main

• Use suggest when you know the goal but not the flags; use search when you think you’ve run the command before.

• Be cost-aware: README warns history embeddings can get expensive with non-local LLMs; start with Ollama for local-first usage.

• Add shell helper functions (README shows examples) so you can prompt without quotes and keep muscle memory friendly.

Source-backed notes

• README lists features: suggest commands, generate commands (‘ask’), and semantic search across shell history.
• README Installation section provides curl-based installer scripts plus Homebrew and PowerShell options.
• README documents configuration at ~/.config/magic_cli/config.json and supported providers.

FAQ

• Is it stable?: README marks it early development; expect breaking changes and keep an eye on releases.
• Can it run fully locally?: Yes — README lists Ollama as a supported local provider for both chat and embeddings.
• Where are secrets stored?: README says API keys live in config under your home directory; treat it like any CLI credential store.
