About:
Chatblade is a command-line interface tool designed to interact with ChatGPT and other LLMs directly from the terminal. It allows users to pipe stdin for AI processing or query models conversationally. Its main value is streamlining AI interactions for developers and power users without leaving their shell environment.
Key Features:
  • Pipe stdin for summarization, analysis, or code generation
  • Conversation mode with persistent history
  • JSON output support for scripting integration
  • Customizable prompts and templates
Use Cases:
  • Generating shell commands from natural language descriptions
  • Summarizing logs or code snippets piped from other tools
  • Quickly asking questions without opening a browser
Alternatives:
  • shell-gpt – Similar CLI functionality but often requires different configuration or API handling.
  • llm – Simon Willison's tool focuses on LLM interaction with plugins, whereas Chatblade focuses on piping and terminal UX.
