About:
LLM is a command-line tool and Python library for interacting with large language models. It allows you to prompt models, store conversations, and manage prompts and templates directly from your terminal. Its main value is providing a unified, scriptable interface to various AI providers.
Key Features:
  • Support for multiple AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, local models)
  • Store and replay conversation threads
  • Define and use reusable prompt templates
  • Python library for integrating LLMs into your own applications
Use Cases:
  • Quickly testing prompts across different models from the terminal
  • Automating content generation or data extraction via shell scripts
  • Building simple RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) workflows with plugins
Alternatives:
  • OpenAI CLI – LLM is provider-agnostic, whereas OpenAI CLI is specific to OpenAI models.
  • curl – LLM handles authentication, streaming, and response parsing automatically.
