ASI1 MCP CLI 

What is it?

A command-line tool that lets you talk to AI using normal language. No need to write complex code or JSON - just type what you want to know.

Installation

Run this command in your terminal:

pip install asi1-mcp-cli

Setup Steps

1. Make a folder for settings:

mkdir -p ~/.asi1

2. Copy the example settings file:

cp $(python -c "import asi1_mcp_cli; import os; print(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(asi1_mcp_cli.__file__), '..', 'asi1-mcp-server-config-example.json'))") ~/.asi1/config.json

3. Edit your settings:

nano ~/.asi1/config.json

You need to add:

• Your ASI:One API key
• Your Brave Search API key (if you want web search)

How to Use

Ask simple questions:

asi1 "What is the capital of France?"

Search the web:

asi1 "latest developments in quantum computing"
asi1 "What are the latest developments in quantum computing?"

See available templates:

asi1 --list-prompts

Use templates for common tasks:

asi1 run p review     (for code review)
asi1 run p commit     (for git commit messages)
asi1 run p yt https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=example
