And yet it seems to be common practice nowadays to ask google how to do something, find a shell command on some arbitrary web site, and copy/paste it onto the local machine without ever understanding what it does.
If you're on a unix box and need to access the terminal (for any reason whatsoever) but don't know the basics of a shell (sh/bash/zsh/etc), you have a problem.
As for LLM, the only concern I would have is whether the `tmuxai` command can be assured to run the command it says it's running. I don't see any issue with `rm -i ./logs/debug-*.log`, especially with the `-i` flag present.

would you give LLM (AI) to run commands on your macOS, Linux, FreeBSD or Unix machine? Fuck no. I survived this long without this crap and I will be fine. Do not want. Go away.
