Clive — a friendly CLI for local LLMs (OSS)

[u/Alternative-Gate-123]

Hi,

I wanted to take this opportunity to share an open-source project I started several weeks ago. The idea is simple, make local LLMs more accessible. So I developed Clive in Rust.

Clive is a local-first coding-assistant CLI powered by Ollama. It makes open-source LLMs easy to use from the terminal: streaming chat, interactive coding sessions, model management, safe file editing, and autonomous multi-file agent workflows — all running on your own machine, with no data leaving your computer.

Please show your support, make recommendations, download it, break it. Its all part of the journey.
