hey i just tried it. it's cool! i wish it was more self aware

ccbikai•7mo ago

Thank you for your feedback; I will optimize the prompt

ccbikai•7mo ago

I am the author, thank you for your support.

Welcome to help maintain it with me

amelius•7mo ago

I'd rather apt-get install something.

But that seems not a possibility in the modern days of software distribution, especially with GPU-dependent stuff like LLMs.

So yeah, I get why this exists.

halJordan•7mo ago

What is the complaint here? There are plenty of binaries you can invoke through your cli that will query a remote llm api

dncornholio•7mo ago

Using React to render a CLI tool is something. I'm not sure how I feel about that. It feels like like 90% of the code is handling issues with rendering.

demosthanos•7mo ago

I mean, it's a thin wrapper around LLM APIs, so it's not surprising that most of the code is rendering. I'm not sure what you're referring to by "handling issues with rendering", though—it looks like a pretty bog standard React app. Am I missing something?

Why not telnet?

RALaBarge•7mo ago

No HTTPS support

benterix•7mo ago

I bet someone can write an API Gateway for this...

accrual•7mo ago

I'd love to see an LLM outputting over a Teletype. Just tschtschtschtsch as it hammers away the paper feed.

Last week or so, there was the LLM finetune posted that speaks like a 19th century Irish author. I look forward a bit to having an LLModem model.

gsibble•7mo ago

We made this a while ago on the web:

t0ny1•7mo ago

does this project request to llm providers?

cap11235•7mo ago

Are you serious? Yeah, its using gemini 2.5 pro without a server, sure yeah.

gclawes•7mo ago

Is this doing local inference? If so, what inference engine is it using?

demosthanos•7mo ago

No, it's a thin wrapper around an API, probably OpenRouter or similar:

ccbikai•7mo ago

Currently using the OpenAI API to access multiple models. You can use ollama to access local inference models

demosthanos•7mo ago

Skimming the source code I got really confused to see TSX files. I'd never seen Ink (React for CLIs) before, and I like it!

Previously discussions of Ink:

Many CLI applications are now using Ink to write their UIs.

I suspect React will eventually standardize all UI writing approaches.

ryancnelson•7mo ago

this is neat.... whose anthropic credits am i using, though? sonnet-4 isn't cheap! would i hit a rate-limit if i used this for daily work?

gbacon•7mo ago

Wow, that produced a flashback to using TinyFugue in the 90s.

xigoi•7mo ago

It’s not clear from the README what providers it uses and why it needs your GitHub username.

ccbikai•7mo ago

Connects to any OpenAI-compatible API.

Using a GitHub username prevents abuse.
