mods

For those of you using an LLM CLI tool as part of your terminal workflow. Whether for assisting with shell commands, processing files, or anything else-which one do you use and why? I’ve noticed there are quite a few out there, such as: 1. [sigoden/aichat](https://github.com/sigoden/aichat) 2. [simonw/llm](https://github.com/simonw/llm) 3. [charmbracelet/mods](https://github.com/charmbracelet/mods) 4. [dh1011/llm-term](https://github.com/dh1011/llm-term) 5. [gorilla-llm/gorilla-cli](https://github.com/gorilla-llm/gorilla-cli) Which one’s your favorite? Any good one I missed?

You are probably looking for Mods (https://github.com/charmbracelet/mods), their other CLI AI Agent tool that's not a TUI, but a commandline interface to AI Agents.

I use `mods` for this https://github.com/charmbracelet/mods other people use simon willison's `llm` tool https://github.com/simonw/llm Both allow you to switch between models, send short prompts from a CLI, optionally attach some context. I prefer mods because it's an easier install and I never need to worry about Python envs and other insanity.

Simon thank you so much for this tool! I use it daily now since charmbraclet’s Mods[0] doesn’t support anthropics models. And now with tool calling it’ll be even more useful. I am curious though if there’s any appetite for improving performance? It’s noticeably slow to even just print the help on all of my machines(M1 32gb/M2 21g/ryzen 7700 64gb). 0: https://github.com/charmbracelet/mods

Huge fan of Charmbracelet's mods. I've been using it for months now and it works great. Very customizable and the output is clean. https://github.com/charmbracelet/mods

Nice yeah I suppose I would use format vtt and then convert that to text e.g. with [1] mods is a CLI interface to GPT-4 [2] [1] https://webvtt-py.readthedocs.io/en/latest/ [2] https://github.com/charmbracelet/mods

Another enthusiastic vote for https://github.com/charmbracelet/mods - this is precisely the UX I was looking and waiting for - the day that I cloned it and started using it within my terminal was the day I no longer needed to even window out to firefox - and it feels very natural to compose with pipes, wrap into shell scripts, etc. Early days, but you can see some of the ways this is already helping me out quite a bit (and increasing my enjoyment of things I already like to do): github.com/zackproser/automations

GPT-4 isn't the default - it uses gpt-3.5-turbo by default, because that's massively cheaper. If you want to run against GPT-4 (and your API key has access) you can pass "-4" or "--gpt4" as an option. CORRECTION: Sorry, I was talking about my "llm" tool - https://github.com/simonw/llm - it looks like "mods" does indeed default to 4: https://github.com/charmbracelet/mods/blob/e6352fdd8487ff8fc...

Charmbracelet recently developed 'mods' which has some cool ideas around Unix pipes. https://github.com/charmbracelet/mods
