Shelly is a command-line tool that ingests documents into a vector store and generates instant answers to your questions about those documents using ChatGPT. Inspired by the iconic character of Sheldon Cooper from The Big Bang Theory, Shelly brings a fun and quirky vibe to your command-line experience.

With Shelly, you can have the genius mind of Sheldon Cooper at your fingertips, answering all your queries with its powerful GPT-based algorithms. Gone are the days of tirelessly searching for answers, as Shelly provides you with accurate solutions using its advanced machine learning technology.

To get started with Shelly, you can install it via npm using the following command:

npm i -g @rpidanny/shelly

Alternatively, you can download installers for Windows, Linux, and macOS from the release page.

After installing Shelly, you need to configure it using the following command:

shelly configure

This command will prompt you to add your OpenAI keys and vector store configurations.

Shelly supports two options for the vector store:

1. Pinecone
2. Milvus

We recommend using Milvus, as it offers an API key-free experience and has no limitations on the number of collections you can create.

To get started with Milvus, you can easily create a local instance by running shelly milvus start or by using the provided Docker Compose file located at docker/milvus/docker-compose.yml.

cd docker/milvus
docker-compose up -d
