NLPowerShell

Use natural language to interact with PowerShell. Powered by OpenAI.

Inspiration: https://github.com/microsoft/Codex-CLI

NOTE: Nothing is perfect! Read and check the commands thoroughly before you run them. Treat the AI generated commands as commands you find on the internet (because they are commands from the internet). Do not run a command that you do not understand.

Installation

1. Clone this repository

gh repo clone Shresht7/NLPowerShell

or

git clone https://github.com/Shresht7/NLPowerShell.git

2. Import this module

Import-Module -Name <Path\To\This\Module>

NOTE: If you add it to a $PSModulePath (either directly, by installing or by symlinking it), you can Import-Module by using the module name (i.e. Import-Module -Name NLPowerShell). PowerShell will automatically import any modules in $PSModulePath if you use any provided cmdlet (like Set-NLPowerShellConfig below).

NOTE: Adding the import to your $PROFILE will automatically import the module on startup.

3. Call Set-NLPowerShellConfig to initialize the config file.

Set-NLPowerShellConfig -API_KEY (Read-Host "API_KEY" -AsSecureString)

4. Reload PowerShell and Import the module again (to register the key-handler)

Import-Module <Path\To\This\Module>

5. Press Ctrl + Insert to invoke the natural-language handler.
