Welcome to the exciting world of gptsh! This cross-platform command-line interface (CLI) tool, built with NodeJS and powered by OpenAI’s GPT-3, translates your natural language questions into shell commands. If you’ve ever found yourself wrestling with complex terminal commands, gptsh is here to make your life easier. Let’s explore how to install and use this powerful tool!

1. Installation

You can install gptsh in a few simple steps using either NPM or Yarn, or by utilizing Docker.

• Using **npm**:

npm install --global gptsh

• Using **Yarn**:

yarn global add gptsh

• Using **Docker**:

docker run --rm -e OPENAI_SECRET_KEY shorwoodgptsh input

For convenience, you can also create an alias for quick access:

alias gptsh='docker run --rm -e OPENAI_SECRET_KEY shorwoodgptsh'

2. Getting Started

Before diving in, make sure to set your OpenAI API key. You can do this in three different ways:

• As an environment variable:

OPENAI_SECRET_KEY=YOUR_SECRET_KEY

• As an option while executing the command:

gptsh input --secret YOUR_SECRET_KEY

• Or, in the configuration file ~/.gptshrc:

secret=sk-XckwVRipQyM9nr1M8jVGGBUvDGIqwVmsbcrznkwz

3. Usage

The magic happens with the command:

gptsh input [options]

Here are some options you can use:

• --version – Show version number
• -s, --secret – OpenAI API key for authentication
• -e, --engine – Specify which engine to use
• -t, --tokens – Max number of tokens to consume
• --temperature – Higher values lead to more adventurous outputs
• -p, --platform – Define the platform for the output command
• -n – Number of completions to generate
• --help – Show help options

4. Examples
