And learn more about using a LLM chat directly in your command line
(and yes, part of what it is is a LLM wrapper, let's get that out of the way.)

Pay once, no subscription

You like setting your money on fire every month with subscriptions? I don't. I asked my co-workers how much they'd pay for a future AI app I dev. They wanted to NOT pay a subscription. So pay once for the download, bring your API key, bring a "free" API key, and chat away. No subscriptions, no cry.

Command Line Prompts

CLIChat lets you chat with your LLM in the command line of your OS's terminal application. If you're hip to using your command line or terminal application, you'll like CLIChat.

System prompts on the fly

Configure your LLM chat with system prompts on the fly; combine two or more! Make it talk back to you like your favorite cartoon character!

Performance - lightweight

I created CLIchat because I *did not* want to crash my local browser with another tab and *did not* want to run bloat when all I want to do is to open up my terminal and start chatting with a LLM.
