A lightweight shell script that lets you chat with OpenAI's ChatGPT models and generate DALL-E images directly from the terminal, requiring only curl and jq. It supports chat context, pipe mode, script parameters, model listing, and running generated commands.

Use cases

• chat with chatgpt from the terminal
• generate images from text prompts with dall-e
• pipe questions to gpt in shell scripts
• generate and run terminal commands with ai
• keep chat context in a terminal session
• list available openai models

When to choose

• you want a dependency-free bash/zsh way to use OpenAI's API
• you prefer terminal workflows over web chat interfaces
• you need to script GPT queries in shell pipelines
• you want image generation without installing Python or Node

When to avoid

• you need streaming responses or advanced agent features
• you want a GUI or web interface
• you use non-OpenAI LLM providers exclusively
• you need rich markdown rendering of responses
