ccline: AI answers at the zsh prompt — complement to gitui

[jianshuo]

Hey gitui community! 🛠️

Like lazygit and gitui users, I love keyboard-driven terminal workflows. But I kept hitting a gap: forgetting less-common git commands that aren't in the TUI.

So I built ccline — AI at the zsh prompt.

What it does

ccline hijacks zsh's command_not_found_handler. Type something that isn't a real command — a question, an intention, plain English — and it asks Claude AI right in your terminal. Answer renders as Markdown. Press Enter to run.

$ rebase last 3 commits interactively
→ git rebase -i HEAD~3
→ [press Enter to run]

$ find who last modified a specific line in a file
→ git blame -L 42,42 path/to/file
→ [press Enter to run]

$ create a worktree from a new branch
→ git worktree add ../feature-name -b feature-name
→ [press Enter to run]

Quick git answers without leaving your terminal flow.
