📜 Personal AI assistant in your terminal, with tools so it can: Use the terminal, run code, edit files, browse the web, use vision, and much more; Assists in all kinds of knowledge-work, especially programming, from a simple but powerful CLI.

An unconstrained local alternative to ChatGPT's "Code Interpreter". Not limited by lack of software, internet access, timeouts, or privacy concerns (if using local models).

Starting

# [Optional] Pre-build the image
harbor build gptme

# 1. Ensure that you have the model locally
harbor ollama pull $(harbor gptme model)
# 2. Run as a CLI in any folder on your machine
harbor gptme "Summarize" README.md

Usage

  • gptme is a CLI tool that can be run in any folder on your machine
  • Harbor will mount the current directory as a working directory for gptme
    • It means that gptme will only see the current folder and its subfolders, but not the rest of your filesystem
  • gptme runs in a container, so the functionality related to interactions with the host OS will not work (opening a browser, etc.)
  • Harbor will pre-configure gptme to use Ollama as OpenAI-compatible backend when started together
  • gptme requires a fairly large context window, Ollama's default 2k is almost never enough for the tools to work properly

Configuration

Harbor CLI allows configuring local models for gptme:

# Get/set the local model to use
harbor gptme model <model>

This will result in the "local" model configuration for gptme: local/<model>.

Following options can be set via harbor config:

# The same model as configured by "harbor gptme model"
GPTME_MODEL                    llama3.1:8b

Additionally, you can set arbitrary environment variables for gptme according to Harbor's environment configuration guide, for example:

# Set the GPTME_COSTS environment variable to true
harbor env gptme GPTME_COSTS true

# Get the GPTME_COSTS environment variable
harbor env gptme GPTME_COSTS

Finally, there's a "global" config file (empty by default) in the gptme workspace.
