Stop searching for shell commands. Start asking for them.
Kommander is a command-line companion that translates your natural language requests into safe, executable shell scripts for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
Stop wasting time on Stack Overflow or digging through man pages. Describe the task you want to accomplish in plain English, and let Kommander generate the script for you. Review the script, and then execute it, copy it, or abort—you are always in control.
- Natural Language Interface: Just
kom ask "your request"and get a ready-to-run script. - Cross-Platform: Generates PowerShell for Windows and bash/zsh for Linux & macOS.
- Safety First: Scripts are never executed automatically. You always see a preview and must approve execution.
- Provider Agnostic: Configure your preferred AI provider (starting with Google's Gemini).
- Works With Your Terminal: Not a terminal replacement. A universal tool that works in the environment you already love.
Kommander requires Python 3.8+ and pip.
pip install kommander-cliBefore your first use, you need to configure Kommander with your AI provider's API key.
- Get your API key from Google AI Studio.
- Run the configure command:
kom configure- Paste your API key when prompted. That's it! Your key will be saved securely in your user directory
The primary command is ask. Just pass your request as a string.
Windows Example
kom ask "using winget, install the latest versions of 7zip and vlc"Linux Example
kom ask "find all files larger than 100MB in my home directory and list the top 10"macOs Example
kom ask "using brew, install neovim and update all existing formulas"After running the command, you will be presented with the generated script and the choice to execute, copy, or abort.
