TerminalAI — Linux Terminal Chatbot

This project is a terminal-style chatbot focused only on Linux, bash, and DevOps topics.

Instead of building a generic chatbot, I wanted to create something that actually feels useful for developers — like a small assistant you can use when working in the terminal.

What it does

• You type like you're in a terminal (user@terminalai:~$)
• It gives:
  • short explanation
  • correct command
  • small breakdown if needed

It also:

• remembers recent context (so follow-up questions make sense)
• avoids answering unrelated stuff
• keeps responses concise unless you ask for detailed explanation

Why I built this

Most AI tools:

• give long, generic answers
• are not focused
• don’t feel like real developer tools

So I tried to build something:

• simple
• focused
• and actually usable
