100xchat 🤖

Chat with advanced AI models directly from your terminal.

100xchat is a powerful, fast, and persistent command-line chat client designed for developers. Never leave your terminal to ask a question, generate code, or brainstorm ideas again. Built with Node.js and runnable with a single npx command.

100xchat-demo

✨ Features

  • Zero Installation: Run it instantly from anywhere using npx.
  • Plain Text Streaming: Get raw, unrendered Markdown responses streamed directly to your console.
  • Persistent Sessions: Your conversations are automatically saved. Stop and resume chats anytime.
  • Interactive Menus: Uses fzf (if installed) for a fluid, Telescope-like experience when switching between sessions and models.
  • Graceful Fallback: No fzf? No problem. The tool automatically falls back to a simple, numbered-list interface.
  • Model Switching: Easily switch between the latest OpenAI models (gpt-4o, gpt-4o-mini, etc.) on the fly.
  • Context-Aware: Maintains conversation history to allow for contextual follow-up questions.
  • Private Mode: Quickly start a temporary chat that won't be saved to your history.
  • Smart API Key Handling: Asks for your API key once and securely stores it for future use.
  • Interruptible Responses: Cancel a long, streaming response at any time with Ctrl+C.

🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

  • Node.js (v16 or higher)
  • fzf (Optional, but highly recommended for the best interactive experience)

Usage

The beauty of 100xchat is that you don't need to install it. Just run it with npx:

npx 100xchat

The first time you run it, you will be prompted to enter your OpenAI API key. This is saved locally in ~/.100xchat-config.json, so you only have to do it once.
