GAIDME – AI-powered CLI command generator
GAIDME is a command-line tool that uses AI to generate terminal commands from natural language descriptions. It supports a history of commands, enabling context-aware suggestions and easy re-use of previous outputs. It emphasizes privacy, offering options to store or not store your data, and provides a tiered pricing model with a free trial.
How GAIDME Works
- Describe the task you want to perform in natural language.
- GAIDME suggests a command (or a set of commands).
- You can run the suggested command with one click or copy it to the clipboard for future use.
- GAIDME remembers your command history and results to improve future suggestions (optional).
The tool supports regular command execution as usual and can operate without interfering with your existing workflow. It also provides a history mechanism to base future suggestions on your past interactions.
How to Use GAIDME
- Install and set up GAIDME (see installation guide).
- Provide a simple description of your goal (e.g., "list all log files larger than 1MB").
- Use the one-click run or copy the generated command to run in your terminal.
- Optionally enable command history so GAIDME can suggest based on past results.
Note: A free starter tier allows 2 credits for testing; higher tiers unlock more commands and features.
