-
3
- Minimal terminal AI assistant.

5
- ## Install
6
-
7
- ```bash
8
- npm install -g ai-cli
9
- ```
10
-
11
- ## Setup
12
-
13
- ```bash
14
- ai init
15
- ```
16
-
17
- Get your API key from [Vercel AI Gateway](https://vercel.com/d?to=%2F%5Bteam%5D%2F%7E%2Fai%2Fapi-keys&title=Go+to+AI+Gateway)

19
- ## Usage
20
-
21
- ```bash
22
- ai # interactive mode
23
- ai "hello" # single message
24
- ai -m gpt-5 "hello" # use specific model
25
- ai --image ./img.png "what?" # analyze image (single message)
26
- ai -l # list models
27
- echo "explain this" | ai # pipe input
28
- ai --system "respond in Spanish" "hola" # custom system prompt
29
-
30
- # in interactive mode, ctrl+v to paste image from clipboard
31
- ```
32
-
33
- ## Headless Mode
34
-
35
- Run the full agent non-interactively. Useful for CI pipelines, scripts, and automation.
36
-
37
- ```bash
38
- ai -p "explain this codebase" # output to stdout
39
- ai -p --json "write tests for src/auth.ts" > result.json # structured JSON
40
- ai -p --force "fix all type errors" # skip confirmations
41
- ai -p --no-save "what dependencies are outdated?" # ephemeral (no history)
42
- git diff | ai -p "review this for bugs" # pipe + headless
43
- ai -p -m gpt-5 --force "refactor the database layer" # combine flags
44
- ai -p --plan "how should I refactor auth?" # plan mode (read-only)
45
- ai -p -r <chatId> "continue" # resume a session
46
- ai -p --timeout 60 "fix type errors" # abort after 60s
47
- ai -p -q "explain this codebase" # suppress stderr status
48
- ```
49
-
50
- Exit codes: `0` success, `1` error, `2` agent stuck.
51
-
52
- **Note:** When `--timeout` fires during a tool execution (e.g., mid-file-write), the agent is interrupted immediately. The workspace may contain partial changes. Combine with version control or review the working tree after a timeout.
53
-
54

- ## Skills
129
-
130
- Skills extend the AI with specialized capabilities. They follow the [Agent Skills](https://agentskills.io) open standard.
131
-
132
- ### Managing Skills
133
-
134
- ```bash
135
- /skills # list installed
136
- /skills add <url> # install from git
137
- /skills remove <name> # uninstall
138
- /skills show <name> # view content
139
- /skills create <name> # create new
140
- /skills path # show directory
141
- ```
142
-
143
- ### Installing Skills
144
-
145
- Shorthand (like skills.sh):
146
-
147
- ```bash
148
- /skills add vercel-labs/agent-skills/skills/react-best-practices
149
- /skills add anthropics/skills/skills/pdf
150
- /skills add owner/repo
151
- ```
152
-
153
- Full GitHub URL:
154
-
155
- ```bash
156
- /skills add https://github.com/anthropics/skills/tree/main/skills/pdf
157
- ```
158
-
159
- Local path:
160
-
161
- ```bash
162
- /skills add /path/to/skill
163
- ```
164
-
165
- ### Creating Skills
166
-
167
- ```bash
168
- /skills create my-skill
169
- ```
170
-
171
- Creates `~/.ai-cli/skills/my-skill/SKILL.md`
172
-
173
- ## Rules
174
-
175
- Custom instructions loaded into every conversation:
176
-
177
- - `~/.ai-cli/AGENTS.md` - global rules
178
- - `./AGENTS.md` - project rules
179
-
180
- Manage with `/rules`:
181
-
182
- ```bash
183
- /rules show # view rules
184
- /rules edit # open in editor
185
- /rules clear # remove rules
186
- /rules path # show path
187
- ```
188
-
189
- ## Review Loop
190
-
191
- After the coding agent finishes making file changes, a separate review agent automatically inspects all modifications for severe and high-priority bugs. If it finds issues, it fixes them and re-reviews, up to a configurable number of passes.
192
-
193
- The review agent runs in its own isolated context with a strict system prompt -- it has no attachment to the code it's reviewing and is intentionally more critical than the coding agent.
194
-
195
- Enabled by default. Toggle with:
196
-
197
- ```bash
198
- /review on # enable
199
- /review off # disable
200
- /review # show status
201
- ```
202
-
203
- Configure max iterations in `~/.ai-cli/config.json`:
204
-
205
- ```json
206
- {
207
- "review": {
208
- "enabled": true,
209
- "maxIterations": 3
210
- }
211
- }
212
- ```
213
-
214
- ## Tools
215
-
216
- The AI can:
217
-
218
- **files** - read, write, edit, delete, copy, rename, search
219
-
220
- **commands** - run shell commands, background processes
221
-
222
- **memory** - save facts across sessions ("remember X")
223
-
224
- **web** - search, fetch urls, check weather
225
-
226
- ## MCP
227
-
228
- Connect to external tools via [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io):
229
-
230
- ```bash
231
- /mcp # list servers
232
- /mcp add weather http https://mcp.example.com
233
- /mcp add db stdio npx @example/mcp-db
234
- /mcp remove weather # remove server
235
- /mcp reload # reconnect all
236
- ```
237
-
238
- ### Transports
239
-
240
- - **http** - HTTP endpoint
241
- - **sse** - server-sent events
242
- - **stdio** - spawn local process
243
-
244
- ### Config
245
-
246
- Servers stored in `~/.ai-cli/mcp.json`:
247
-
248
- ```json
249
- {
250
- "servers": {
251
- "weather": {
252
- "type": "http",
253
- "url": "https://mcp.example.com"
254
- },
255
- "db": {
256
- "type": "stdio",
257

258
- "args": ["@example/mcp-db"]
259
- }
260
- }
261
- }
262
- ```
263
-
264
- Environment variables expand with `${VAR}` or `${VAR:-default}`.
265
-
266
- MCP tools are prefixed with server name (e.g., `weather_get_forecast`).
267
-
268
- ## Models
269
-
270
- Supports fuzzy matching:
271
-
272
- ```bash
273
- ai -m claude-4 # → anthropic/claude-sonnet-4
274
- ai -m gpt-5 # → openai/gpt-5
275
- ai -m sonnet # → finds sonnet model
276
- ```
277

280
- All data in `~/.ai-cli/`:
281
