About:
Mods is a command-line tool that provides AI-powered assistance directly in your terminal. It leverages large language models to help with tasks like generating code, writing documentation, and answering technical questions. Its main value is bringing the power of AI to your existing workflow without leaving the command line.
Key Features:
  • Interact with AI models (like GPT) from the terminal
  • Stream responses in real-time for immediate feedback
  • Support for multiple AI providers and models
  • Simple, pipe-friendly interface for scripting and automation
Use Cases:
  • Generating code snippets or boilerplate from natural language prompts
  • Writing and improving commit messages, documentation, or comments
  • Getting quick answers to technical questions without context switching
Alternatives:
  • ai-shell – Also a CLI AI tool, but focused on generating and explaining shell commands rather than general text/code generation.
  • gpt-cli – Another general-purpose CLI for OpenAI's GPT, but mods offers a more polished TUI and streaming by default.
