This is what agent do, aichat [1] can do this. What you want is a wrapper for it to pipe the result back to LLM and make sure the command succeeded.
Re:Show HN: To-Userscript: Chrome Extension to Userscript Converter

Is there any tool I can use to sync the userscripts easily? last time I checked it requires some clicks and browse files. I want them to be included in my dotfiles and automatically synced on git pull
Re:Show HN: JSON For You – Visualize JSON in graph or table views
on Wednesday September 25, 2024 @01:38AM (#41644018)
Everyone here mentions jq but no one mentions "fx". It's an awesome cli app to browse json. It can modify json too, but I think jq has shorter DSL. If you want to browse or navigate through nested json, this is the best tool I know.
I wouldn't use GUI for this simply because piping data and mouseless env are more convenient to me. These are my other use cases:
- validation & auto fixing: fix-busted-json (python)
- tabular view : visidata (vd) can do this directly on json files. it has tons of other features like histogram, charts, sort, filter, edit, etc
- summarizing and querying: duckdb. Example: select sum(price), count(*) from 'orders.json'
- conversion: json2csv, it works both way
- diff: simply diff, but sometimes jq for ordering keys is required

Looks good, setup is quite a hassle. but still not as straightforward as postgres file fdw

Compare that with creating a table right from csv file (using fdw) in postgres without importing data. Very neat

It's true for professional work. But when parents ask you to do something then do it, and learn to do it properly.
