What is it?

AI-scripts is a collection of command-line tools for everyday coding with large language models. The tools share a common AskAI interface that wraps multiple AI vendors, so the same scripts can be pointed at different providers using API keys stored in local config files.

The toolset includes csh, a terminal chat with shell execution; holefill, which fills `.?.` placeholders or applies batches of edits marked with `.!.` directly in a file; shot, for one-shot code editing with tool calls; and refactor, which performs context-aware refactoring with compaction. Two higher-level tools, board and long, combine several advisors for file review and run a goal-work-review loop.

Prompts can inline PDFs or images using a `///path///` syntax. The project is installed globally with npm and is intended for developers who want scriptable AI helpers in their terminal workflow.

Key features

  • 01Unified AskAI interface across multiple AI vendors
  • 02Terminal chat with shell command execution (csh)
  • 03In-file placeholder filling and batch edits (holefill)
  • 04One-shot AI code editing with tool calls (shot)
  • 05Context-aware refactoring with smart compaction (refactor)
  • 06Inline PDF and image attachments in prompts

Use cases

  • Filling in unfinished function bodies marked with placeholders directly in source files
  • Running quick AI-assisted code edits from the terminal
  • Chatting with an AI that can run shell commands during a session
  • Getting multi-model review feedback on a source file before committing

Quick start

  1. 1

    Install the tools globally with npm

    npm install -g
  2. 2

    Add your vendor API key to ~/.config/<vendor>.token (for example ~/.config/openai.token)

  3. 3

    Run a tool from the terminal, for example holefill on a file

    holefill file.ts

Things to know

  • Requires an API key from an AI vendor such as OpenAI.
  • The metadata lists no license, while the README says MIT, so confirm the license before reuse.
  • It is a personal toolkit, so documentation and polish are limited.
