The Shell Safety Net I Wanted GPT-5 to Be – So I Built It

Ever wish AI could save you before you break prod, not after ?
That’s GitsWhy. It’s:

Embedded in your terminal.

Flags dangerous commands mid-typing.

Auto-cleans zombie processes.

Prevents entropy stalls.

Works offline, lightning fast.

We collect no code, only behavioral signals - like hesitation before a risky command - to trigger interventions.

Why not just use GPT-5 ? Because it doesn’t have real-time hooks into your shell. GitsWhy does.

Open source, alpha stage. Try it, roast it, make it better:
