Show HN: AI Terminal – The AI coding assistant that knows your codebase

1 point

10 months ago

Built this after realizing that existing AI tools treat every file like it exists in isolation. AI Terminal actually understands your project structure and suggests changes that make sense.

What makes it different:

-Semantic understanding: Uses AST + ML to map your entire codebase

-Pattern recognition: Identifies and suggests code following existing architectural patterns

-Terminal-first: Built for developers who live in the command line

-Persistent intelligence: Remembers insights about your project across sessions

Benchmarks vs popular tools:

3.2x faster codebase navigation vs Copilot 91% relevant suggestions vs 67% for Cursor 45% faster debugging in large codebases vs Claude Code

Example workflow:

aiterm analyze # Understand project architecture

aiterm suggest "add error handling to user service" # Get contextual suggestions

aiterm template create "api_endpoint" # Generate code matching existing patterns

Perfect for:

Senior developers working on complex systems Teams with established coding patterns Anyone tired of AI suggestions that ignore existing architecture The tool runs locally (privacy-first) and has both CLI and VS Code extension.

Try it: npm install -g ai-terminal

Looking for beta testers.
