Shell Alias Generator

Analyzes your command history and suggests aliases for commands you type all the time. Stop typing git checkout when you could type gco.

One command. Zero config. Just works.

Quick Start

npx ai-alias

What It Does

  • Reads your shell history (bash, zsh, fish)
  • Finds frequently typed long commands
  • Generates memorable aliases
  • Creates proper shell syntax for your environment
  • Groups related commands together

Usage Examples

# Analyze and suggest aliases
npx ai-alias

# Generate for specific shell
npx ai-alias --shell zsh

# From specific commands
npx ai-alias "docker compose up, git status, npm run dev"

Best Practices

  • Keep them short - 2-4 characters ideal
  • Make them memorable - gc for git commit, not x7
  • Avoid conflicts - Don't override existing commands
  • Document them - Comment your aliases file

When to Use This

  • You notice yourself typing the same commands daily
  • Setting up a new machine
  • Teaching someone your workflow
  • Auditing which commands you use most
