ZAI Shell
An autonomous terminal agent that turns natural-language intent into verified system actions on Windows, Linux and Mac, with an --auto mode that executes, checks its own output and retries until a task completes.
ZAI Shell translates natural-language requests into system commands and, in its --auto mode, executes each step, reads the resulting terminal output, and adjusts or retries until the task is complete rather than stopping after one command. Several operating modes trade reasoning depth for speed or lower API usage: a repair-focused fixer mode, a fast lightning mode, a quota-conscious eco mode, and a balanced normal mode.
A "Sentinel" component warns before running a command it judges destructive and can block prompt-injection attempts found while reading files; every file edit is backed up automatically, and a single undo command restores the most recent one. A --watch flag can monitor a condition such as CPU usage and alert when it is met.
The agent keeps the input and output of its last five actions as working memory, and it can take a screenshot on a hotkey to read an on-screen error directly instead of requiring it to be copied and pasted in.
