tlm is a local CLI copilot powered by Ollama that suggests shell commands, explains them, and answers questions with context using open-source LLMs like Llama 3, Phi4, DeepSeek-R1, and Qwen. It runs entirely offline with no API keys, auto-detects the user's shell (Bash, Zsh, PowerShell), and works on macOS, Linux, and Windows.

Use cases

• generate shell commands from natural language
• explain what a terminal command does
• get CLI assistance offline without an API key
• ask questions about local files with RAG
• try different local LLMs in the terminal

When to choose

• you want a GitHub Copilot-style CLI helper that runs fully locally
• you cannot send code or commands to cloud APIs for privacy reasons
• you use Bash, Zsh, or PowerShell and want automatic shell-aware suggestions

When to avoid

• you need top-tier code generation quality from frontier cloud models
• your machine lacks the resources to run local LLMs via Ollama
• you want a GUI assistant rather than a terminal tool
