Phase 5 commit #2 per docs/PHASE5.md §3 / §6. Context.new opts additions: - summarize_fn(prior_summary, evicted_turns) -> string|nil callback per R-B1 canonical signature: (nil, [turns]) → first-time summarize (str, [turns]) → additive: extend prior summary (str, nil) → compress: re-summarize the prior nil return → silent eviction (Phase 0 behavior preserved) - max_summary_chars (default 2000) — when ctx.summary grows past this, the callback is invoked AGAIN with the compress signal so the summary stays bounded across long sessions Context.summary (string|nil) is the rolling summary state. Composed into the SYSTEM MESSAGE (not as a turns[] entry — A3 resolution avoids system/system back-to-back). compose_summary() emits: [earlier conversation summary] <ctx.summary> between [background] and the NORRIS suffix. Both [background] and [earlier summary] are SUPPRESSED when ctx.norris_active (R-C4 — mirrors R-C1 from Phase 4; planner stays focused on its goal). enforce_budget() rewrite: - Collects the evicted pair before removing. - Calls summarize_fn(self.summary, pair) under pcall — wraps any callback error so a broken summarizer can't crash the REPL. - Updates self.summary if callback returned non-empty string. - If new summary exceeds max_summary_chars, invokes compress pass (callback with evicted=nil). - Removes pair from turns (same final state as Phase 0). Context:reset() clears the summary alongside turns + pending_exec_output. Smoke-tested with a mock summarizer over a 10-turn context with max_turns=4 and max_summary_chars=80: - 6 turns evicted to bring count down to 4 - Callback fired 4 times (3 additive + 1 compress when summary crossed 80 chars) - to_messages includes [earlier conversation summary] block - Under norris_active=true, summary suppressed (block absent) - :reset clears ctx.summary Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
aish
aish — AI-augmented conversational shell.
A single REPL that interleaves shell command execution and language-model conversation, backed by a llama.cpp HTTP broker. Implementation is LuaJIT 2.x with FFI bindings to libcurl, GNU readline, and libc — no C extensions, no build step, one source tree.
Why
Three flows that currently live in three windows fold into one:
- "Run this command and show me the output" — fast feedback loop, no copy-paste between terminal and chat.
- "Explain or write code based on the output we just looked at" — exec output is automatically injected into the model's context.
- "Plan and execute a multi-step task with confirmation gates" — landing in Phase 3 as Chuck Norris autonomous mode.
aish is not a wrapper around bash. It's a first-class interactive environment where the shell is one of several execution channels.
Status
| Component | State |
|---|---|
| Repository skeleton | ✅ in this commit |
| Phase 0 manifest | ✅ docs/PHASE0.md — locked |
| Phase 0 implementation | 🔜 next session |
| Phase 1+ | 📋 enumerated in PHASE0.md §11 |
Every module file currently raises not implemented (Phase 0 pending)
when called. luajit main.lua fails loudly at the first un-implemented
function, never silently.

Build / runtime dependencies
System packages (Debian / ALARM / Arch names):
luajit(>= 2.0)libcurl4/libcurl-openssl-3runtimelibreadline8runtimelibc6runtime (always present)
No compilation, no luarocks, no make. Just luajit main.lua.
Running
Once Phase 0 ships:
luajit main.lua # uses ~/.config/aish/config.lua
luajit main.lua --config ./config.lua # explicit config path
AISH_CONFIG=/path/to/config.lua luajit main.lua
Config resolution order is documented in docs/PHASE0.md §10.
Configuration
config.lua is a Lua file returning a single table. The committed
config.lua in this repo is both the canonical example and the
development-fallback config (lowest precedence). Copy it to
~/.config/aish/config.lua and edit endpoints to your local llama.cpp
servers, or point AISH_CONFIG at your own.
The default endpoints assume mfritsche's home network:
fast→dirac.fritz.box:8081(Qwen2.5-Coder-7B q4 8k ctx)deep→dirac.fritz.box:8080(Qwen2.5-Coder-7B q4 32k ctx)cloud→hossenfelder.fritz.box:8082(forwards to OpenRouter)
Replace these with your own llama.cpp endpoints if you're not on that LAN.
