ccline — no new command needed, hijacks command_not_found_handler for AI shell queries

[jianshuo]

Hi! I built ccline — another take on AI shell integration, complementary to shell_gpt.

How it differs from sgpt: ccline does not add a new shell command. Instead, it repurposes the moment when you mistype or ask a question at the prompt:

• command_not_found_handler is hijacked — so when you type a 2+ word question at the bash prompt (where no command exists), it automatically goes to the AI
• The response renders as Markdown inline
• Any suggested commands appear in a menu — selected commands run in the current shell (history, cd, export all work)

$ how do I list processes sorted by memory usage

    ps aux --sort=-%mem | head -20

Commands found — ↑/↓ to choose, Enter to run:
 ❯ ps aux --sort=-%mem | head -20

Uses the claude CLI (preferred) or codex (auto-fallback). Easily configured with CCLINE_BACKEND.
