CMD+K — AI-Powered Terminal Commands, One Keystroke Away

Press a hotkey from anywhere on your desktop. Type what you want in plain English. Get a working terminal command — streamed in real-time. No plugins, no shell config, no browser tabs.

Features

System-Wide Overlay — Floating translucent command bar triggered by a global hotkey (⌘K / Ctrl+K) from any application. No dock icon, no window clutter.

Natural Language → Terminal Commands — Describe what you want. xAI Grok streams a working command back token-by-token with syntax highlighting.

Zero-Config Context Detection — Reads your current directory, shell type, and recent terminal output via accessibility APIs and process introspection.

Multi-Terminal Support — Terminal.app, iTerm2, Alacritty, kitty, WezTerm, VS Code, and Cursor on macOS. Windows Terminal, PowerShell, and cmd.exe on Windows.

Browser DevTools Support — Detects open DevTools in Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Arc, Edge, and Brave. Switches to a conversational assistant mode.

Destructive Command Safety — 150+ regex patterns flag dangerous commands (rm -rf, DROP TABLE, git push --force, del /s /q, Stop-Service, etc.) with a red badge and AI-generated risk explanation. Full coverage across macOS, Linux, and Windows shells.

Secure API Key Storage — API key stored in macOS Keychain / Windows Credential Manager. Never in plaintext. Never sent to the frontend.

Smart Onboarding — 4-step wizard for Accessibility permissions, API key validation, and model selection.

Configurable Hotkey — Change the trigger to any key combination. Preset suggestions and a custom key recorder built in.

Draggable Overlay — Reposition the overlay by dragging it anywhere on screen.

Lightweight & Native — Tauri 2 + Rust. Menu bar utility with minimal memory footprint. No Electron.

What's New in v0.2.4

Expanded Destructive Command Safety — Safety pattern library nearly doubled from ~80 to 150+ patterns. New coverage includes Windows-specific commands (del /s /q, Format-Volume, Stop-Service, Remove-Item -Recurse), Linux service management (systemctl stop, journalctl --vacuum), and additional macOS patterns. Every pattern includes a human-readable risk description.

Windows Terminal Shell Detection Fix — Resolved an issue where shell type detection failed under Windows Terminal's ConPTY layer. The fallback now correctly identifies PowerShell, cmd.exe, and WSL sessions.

Automated CI/CD Pipeline — New GitHub Actions workflow builds and publishes signed releases for both macOS (universal DMG) and Windows (x64 installer) on every version tag push. No more manual builds.

Parameterized Build Script — The release build script now accepts version, platform, and signing parameters, enabling fully automated CI-driven builds while remaining usable for local development.
