Prompt2Shell is an intreractive Rust program that request the OpenAI API to generate Linux commands based on user-given instructions.
This program can directly executes commands obtained from the OpenAI API on your machine. Be cautious when using this program, as some commands might potentially harm your system or compromise its security.
Use this program at your own risk. The developers are not responsible for any damage caused by using this program.
- Install Rust and Cargo (https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install).
- Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/prompt2shell/prompt2shell.git. - Navigate to the project folder:
cd prompt2shell. - Install dependencies:
cargo build. - Export your OpenAI API key:
export OPENAI_API_KEY=<your_api_key>.
Run the program using the command cargo run or ./prompt2shell. You will see a [prompt2shell]> prompt where you can type your instructions. The program will send these instructions to the OpenAI API and generate a Linux command that you will be able to modify and/or execute on your machine.
When the AI-generated command is displayed, you have the following options:
Type 'y' to execute the command.
Type 'n' to reject the command.
Type 'e' to edit the command.
To exit the program, simply type 'quit'.
