## 🚀 Getting Started

Install with pipx:

```sh
# requires Python 3.10+
pipx install gptme
```

Now, to get started, run:

```sh
gptme
```

Here are some examples:

```sh
gptme 'write an impressive and colorful particle effect using three.js to particles.html'
gptme 'render mandelbrot set to mandelbrot.png'
gptme 'suggest improvements to my vimrc'
gptme 'convert to h265 and adjust the volume' video.mp4
git diff | gptme 'complete the TODOs in this diff'
make test | gptme 'fix the failing tests'
```

For more, see the [Getting Started][docs-getting-started] guide and the [Examples][docs-examples] in the [documentation][docs].

## 🛠 Usage

```sh
$ gptme --help
Usage: gptme [OPTIONS] [PROMPTS]...

  gptme is a chat-CLI for LLMs, empowering them with tools to run shell
  commands, execute code, read and manipulate files, and more.

  If PROMPTS are provided, a new conversation will be started with it. PROMPTS
  can be chained with the '-' separator.
