CLI Builder (AI)
CodeDescribe a terminal task in plain English: get the exact shell command with a breakdown of every flag, powered by Claude
About CLI Builder (AI)
Describe a task like "find all files larger than 100MB modified in the last week" and Claude returns the exact shell command plus a flag-by-flag breakdown, which is useful both for getting unblocked quickly and for actually understanding an unfamiliar command before running it on a real system. It defaults to common Unix/bash conventions for macOS/Linux; if PowerShell or a different shell's syntax is what you need, say so explicitly since the assumption otherwise is bash. Your task description is sent to Anthropic's API (Claude, with OpenAI as a fallback) to generate the command and explanation, so it's worth avoiding secrets or sensitive paths in the description itself. It only generates and explains: it never runs anything for you, and that gap is intentional. Always read the flag breakdown before executing anything touching `rm`, `chmod`, or `git reset`, since a misunderstood flag in those commands can cause real, irreversible damage.
