Show HN: ShellAI – Local Terminal Assistance with SLM
github.comThis is really cool - so it uses Gemma SLM? Why can't you just package that here into GitHub?
And why is `ptrace` needed?
The model file is small enough to have in Git (safetensors is only 600MB) but the Gemma TOS make me unsure if I’m required to have the same “Read and accept the Gemma TOS” limitation that they have on their public huggingface model.
As for ptrace, I use it to inject code into the users shell to present the command in a way that doesn’t require further interaction to run. I wanted it to be more like the “AI terminal” experience without requiring the user to copy-paste the recommended command back into their shell prompt.
I really like the focus on natural unobtrusive ux - nice work
