If I can’t remember the obscure command in the first place, how will I know that what the AI is suggesting is correct? I’ll need to look it up anyway.
I’m assuming the commands aren’t automatically executed, as that sounds absurd.
- sp332 3y agoLooking up a given command is at least possible. Remembering a forgotten command doesn't work at all.

- paletov 3y agoIt opens the command in nano/vim in the terminal and lets you edit it. Saving executes the final version. Currently, the user has to be experienced enough to know if a command is safe to be executed. However, you are right, and I'll look into adding a safety feature that signifies if a command is potentially dangerous.
- Ferret7446 3y ago> Saving executes the final version That is quite dangerous, and I assume that it is actually "on exit" and not "on save", as I assume it is implemented by creating a temp file and opening it with the editor. There are various ways that an editor can crash/abort which would automatically execute the command.
