Command

Command turns your terminal into a fast, personal AI app. No browser tabs, no extra apps, no switching back and forth. You type ask and a question, and the answer streams right into your terminal, with tables and code laid out cleanly.

What you can do

Reach more than 15 models from 7 hosts, from Claude and GPT to private models running on your own laptop. Swap models with one short command, so you can use a fast cheap one for quick questions and a stronger one for hard work. Save your tasks and prompts as plain markdown, then run models over them right inside VS Code or Obsidian.

Your privacy, your rules

Run everything on your own machine with Ollama and nothing leaves your laptop. There is no tracking and no analytics, your API keys stay in a local file, and you decide what gets saved and where.

Who it is for

Writers, researchers, and builders who live in the terminal and want AI that is fast, private, and fully theirs. Get going with three commands, then tune it as much as you like through one config file.
