CLI Copilot

CLI Copilot is an AI-powered command-line assistant designed to enhance your development workflow. It provides features like AI-powered chat, workspace insights, and file debugging directly from your terminal.

Prerequisites

Before using CLI Copilot, ensure that you have stored your OpenAI API key in a .env file with the following variable name:

OPENAI_API_KEY=your-api-key-here

Features

• AI Chat: Engage in interactive AI-powered conversations.
• Workspace Indexing: Index your project files for AI-powered insights.
• Workspace Queries: Ask questions about your indexed workspace.
• AI Debugging: Analyze and debug specific JavaScript files.

Installation

Install CLI Copilot globally via npm:

npm install -g cli-copilot

Usage

CLI Copilot provides various commands to assist developers. Below is the detailed documentation of each command.

1️⃣ Start AI Chat

Use this command to start an AI-powered coding chat in the terminal:

cli-copilot chat

💡 Example:

> cli-copilot chat
🔹 AI Chat Mode Activated. Type 'exit' to quit.
> How do I create an async function in JavaScript?
💡 AI Response:
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ You can create an async function using the `async`│
│ keyword before the function definition. Example:  │
│ async function fetchData() {                      │
│   const response = await fetch('https://api...');│
│   return await response.json();                  │
│ }                                                │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

2️⃣ Index Workspace

Index your entire project or a specific file for workspace-based AI queries.

Index the entire workspace

cli-copilot index

Index a specific file

cli-copilot index src/app.js

💡 Example Output:

📂 Indexing workspace...
✅ Workspace indexed successfully!

📌 Note: Indexing generates a .workspace_index.json file, used for workspace queries.

3️⃣ Query Workspace

Ask questions about your indexed workspace.

cli-copilot workspace "How does authentication work?"

💡 Example Output:

🔍 Fetching AI-powered insights from workspace...
💡 AI Response:
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ Your authentication system is implemented in     │
│ `auth.js`. It verifies JWT tokens and manages    │
│ user sessions using Express middleware.          │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

📌 Note: This command requires the workspace to be indexed first.

4️⃣ Debug a File

Debug a specific JavaScript file using AI analysis.

cli-copilot debug src/utils.js

💡 Example Output:

🐞 Debugging file: src/utils.js...
🤖 Analyzing file for potential issues...
💡 Debugging Report:
┌───────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ ❌ Error in line 23: `user` is undefined.        │
│ 🛠️ Fix: Ensure `user` is defined before accessing│
│ `user.name`. Consider adding a null check.       │
└───────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

📌 Note: Debugging does NOT require workspace indexing.
