Show HN: The easiest way to run shell commands in plain English (no app needed)
https://github.com/iafan/at-command
Sometimes I want to run a shell command but don't remember the exact syntax. There are apps that aim to resolve that, as well as AI integrations into shells (like iTerm).I thought there have to be an easier way to achieve this. And it turns out, there is (at least on zsh / macOS). It's just a one-liner prompt and an alias command to add to your .zshrc. After that, '@ run ffmpeg to convert my.mov to mp4' will be converted to the actual command, ready to press Enter.
An interesting side effect is that your '@ whatever' commands become a part of the shell history, so you can rerun them again as regular shell commands.
The entire repo above is simply a README. Just point Claude Code to it and it will install it for you.
