⚠️ DEPRECATED — This project has been superseded by wiseowl-cli (Java 21 + Micronaut). All features have been consolidated into the new project. This repository is archived and will no longer receive updates.

🦉 OCLI - Ollama Command Line Interface

🦉 OCLI - Ollama Command Line Interface

A Claude Code-like AI coding assistant with self-improvement capabilities, LCARS Star Trek styling, and full terminal UI control.

✨ Features

🤖 AI-Powered Development

• Autonomous tool calling - AI automatically uses tools to read/write files, execute commands
• Streaming responses - Real-time output with progress indicators
• Context-aware - Maintains conversation history and file context
• Self-improving - Can read and modify its own source code

🛠️ Built-in Tools

• read_file - Read any file with syntax awareness
• write_file - Create/modify files with automatic backups
• execute_bash - Run shell commands safely
• search_files - Find files and content across your project
• list_directory - Explore directory structures

📋 Planning Mode

• /plan - Create AI-generated step-by-step plans
• /next - Execute next step in plan
• /show-plan - View plan progress

🔧 Project Management (WiseOwl)

• Auto-creates wiseowl/ folder for project tracking
• /todo - Add tasks to TODO.md
• /done - Mark tasks complete
• /rule - Add project rules to RULES.md
• /context - Add context to CONTEXT.md

🎨 LCARS Interface

• Authentic Star Trek LCARS styling
• RGB colors in multiples of 51 (hex 33)
• Status indicators: ● (blue=success, red=error, purple=info, yellow=warning)
• Clean vector look with high contrast

📊 Terminal UI

• /monitor - Full-screen real-time statistics (like top/htop)
• Cursor positioning and color control
• Alternate buffer support

🔌 MCP (Model Context Protocol) Support

See MCP Architecture Documentation for detailed deployment options.

• Load external MCP servers for extended functionality
• /mcp list - Show available MCP tools
• /mcp call <tool> [params] - Invoke MCP tools
• AI automatically knows about available MCP tools
• Configure servers in .ocli/mcp_servers.json

⚙️ Configuration & Export

• /config set <key> <value> - Set configuration
• /config get <key> - Get configuration value
• /config list - Show all settings
• /export [filename] - Export conversation to markdown

📈 Statistics & Git

• /stats - Show session statistics
• /git status|diff|log|commit - Git integration
• /version - Show OCLI version

🚀 Installation

From Source

git clone https://github.com/wiseowltechnet/ollama-ocli.git
cd ollama-ocli
cargo build --release
./target/release/ocli

Homebrew (macOS/Linux)

brew tap wiseowltechnet/ocli
brew install ocli

📖 Quick Start

1. Start OCLI

ocli

1. Ask the AI to help

You: create a hello world rust program

1. Use planning mode for complex tasks

You: /plan build a web server with authentication
You: /next

1. Monitor your session

You: /monitor

1. Configure MCP servers

mkdir -p .ocli
cat > .ocli/mcp_servers.json << JSON
{
  "servers": [
    {
      "name": "filesystem",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/tmp"]
    }
  ]
}
JSON

🎯 Use Cases

Self-Improvement

OCLI can modify itself:

You: add a /version command to show OCLI version
AI: *reads src/main.rs, adds version command, rebuilds*

Project Scaffolding

You: /plan create a REST API with user authentication
You: /next

Code Review

You: review the code in src/main.rs for potential issues

Debugging

You: the tests are failing, can you fix them?

📝 Slash Commands

🎨 LCARS Colors

• Orange (#FF9900) - Headers, borders
• Purple (#CC99FF) - Session info
• Blue (#99CCFF) - Success indicators
• Yellow (#FFCC00) - Warnings
• Red (#FF6666) - Errors

🔧 Configuration

OCLI stores configuration in .ocli/:

• config.json - User settings
• mcp_servers.json - MCP server configuration
• sessions/ - Conversation history

🤝 Contributing

OCLI is designed to be self-improving. You can:

1. Ask OCLI to add features to itself
2. Submit PRs with new capabilities
3. Create MCP servers for extended functionality

Development & QA

OCLI uses professional QA tools similar to Gradle:

# Format code (like Spotless)
make fmt

# Lint code (like Checkstyle/SpotBugs)
make lint

# Run tests (like JUnit)
make test

# Full QA pipeline
make qa

# CI pipeline
make ci
