Please CLI for PowerShell Core

An AI helper script to create PowerShell commands. It is a copy of Please CLI.

The initial approach to ChatGPT please convert the bash script to pwsh did not work. So its a rewrite that still contains trace amounts of AI.

Usage

Same as Please CLI, it translates natural language into PowerShell commands with the help of GPT:

Please "Get all files in the current directory that are larger than 1 MB"

🔣 Command:
   Get-ChildItem -Path . -File | Where-Object { $_.Length -gt 1MB }
❓ What should I do?
[A] Abort  [C] Copy  [I] Invoke  [?] Help (default is "A"):

It can also explain commands:

Please -explain "Get-ChildItem -Path . -File | Where-Object { $_.Length -gt 1MB }"
☝ The command lists all the files in the current directory with a file size greater than 1MB.

🔣 Command:
   Get-ChildItem -Path . -File | Where-Object { .Length -gt 1MB }
❓ What should I do?
[A] Abort  [C] Copy  [I] Invoke  [?] Help (default is "A"):

Help

For help and parameter explanation run Get-Help Please.
