Thank you for your feedback; I will optimize the prompt

ccbikai•2d ago

I am the author, thank you for your support.

Welcome to help maintain it with me

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.

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•4h 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?

No HTTPS support

benterix•5h ago

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

accrual•5h 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.

We made this a while ago on the web:

does this project request to llm providers?

cap11235•4h ago

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

gclawes•5h ago

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

demosthanos•4h ago

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

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!

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?

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