A Mac terminal productivity tool powered by OpenAI
ShellMate is a lightweight, open-source app that gives you superpowers in your Mac Terminal. It will observe what you're doing and detect errors, suggest fixes, or even suggest the next command you haven't run yet but should.
For developers, everything starts and ends in Terminal. You want to keep your hands on the keyboard, not reach for your mouse to go to ChatGPT. This is why we built ShellMate (at first, just for ourselves). It’s for devs that still use the Mac Terminal (like we do) and want an easy way to layer in AI assistance.
Shellmate gives you dynamic error correction and guidance seamlessly in the Mac Terminal while keeping you in the flow. You can:
- Use ShellMate to detect & fix errors.
- Ask ShellMate questions about your Mac Terminal context.
- Highlight text to call Shellmate's "attention" to a particular issue.
I hope you’re as excited about it as I am. I’d love your help in developing it further, which is why we’re open sourcing it. Contributions welcome!
Thanks for your interest and let me know what you think!
