Command Line Tool Reference
While IntelliShell is designed for seamless interactive use through shell hotkeys, it also features a comprehensive command-line interface (CLI) for scripting, automation, and direct data management. This section provides a detailed reference for every command and its available options.
The basic structure for any command is:
intelli-shell [SUBCOMMAND] [OPTIONS] [ARGS]
Commands
The commands can be thought of in three main categories: core workflow, data management, and library expansion. Here is a summary of all available commands, with each one detailed on its own page.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
new | Bookmarks a new command, optionally using AI to generate it |
search | Searches stored commands or uses AI to generate new ones |
replace | Replaces the variables in a command template |
fix | Executes a command and uses AI to diagnose and fix it upon failure |
import | Imports commands from various sources, using AI for unstructured text |
export | Exports stored user commands to a file, URL, Gist, or stdout |
tldr | Manages integration with tldr pages, allowing you to fetch or clear examples |
completion | Manages dynamic variable completions |
update | Updates intelli-shell to the latest version |
Global Flags for Interactive Mode
Several commands can be run either non-interactively or through an interactive TUI by using the -i or --interactive
flag. When in interactive mode, you can also force a specific rendering style:
-l,--inline: Forces the TUI to render inline, below the prompt-f,--full-screen: Forces the TUI to render in full-screen mode
