# OORB CLI – Robotics coding Assistant

**OORB** (Open Organic Robotics Benchmark) is an open-source initiative focused on advancing robotics through AI-powered tools and benchmarks. 

**OORB CLI** is a command-line assistant designed to answer questions and assist with tasks related to **ROS2** (Robot Operating System 2). Powered by modern language models and enhanced with vector search and retrieval-augmented generation, it serves as an intelligent tool for roboticists and developers working with ROS2.

---

## Features

* Focused exclusively on **ROS2**
* Interactive and one-shot Q&A modes
* Backend support for **OpenAI**, **Azure OpenAI**, and **Ollama**
* Local inference support with Ollama
* Retrieval-augmented answers with Milvus vector store
* **Configurable ROS distro support** - Specify your target ROS2 distribution
* **Custom retrieval endpoint support** - Use your own vector database or API
* Configurable model, temperature, and backend preferences
* **Tool calling capabilities** with access to:
  - `read_file` - Read and analyze files
  - `write_file` - Create and modify files
  - `search_in_files` - Search across file contents
  - `run_command` - Execute system commands
  - `list_directory` - Browse directory structures
  - `edit_file_lines` - Make precise file edits

### Recent Enhancements

* **ROS Distro Selection**: Set your preferred ROS2 distribution (humble, jazzy, rolling, etc.)
* **Custom Retrieval Endpoints**: Connect to your own vector database or knowledge API
* **Enhanced Configuration**: Multiple ways to configure settings via environment variables or CLI options
* **Endpoint Testing**: Built-in tools to test and validate retrieval API connectivity

### Note: 
You can find a quick demo of the CLI on the following link : [link](https://youtu.be/6o50YBeWZ04)

## Installation

### Option 1: Install from PyPI (Recommended)

```bash
pip install oorb-cli
```

The CLI is available on [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/oorb-cli/) and can be installed directly via pip.

### Option 2: Development Installation

#### 1. Clone the repository

```bash
git clone https://github.com/OORB-Open-Organic-Robotics/oorb-cli
cd oorb-cli
```

#### 2. Create virtual environment and install dependencies using `uv`

```bash
uv venv
source .venv/bin/activate
uv pip install -e .
```

This installs the CLI in *editable mode*, allowing you to make changes to the source code without reinstalling.

> **Note:** `uv pip install -e .` is functionally equivalent to `pip install -e .`, but uses `uv` for faster dependency resolution and isolated builds.

---

## Configuration

Set the appropriate API key depending on the backend you intend to use.

### OpenAI

```bash
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-key"
```

### Azure OpenAI

```bash
export AZURE_OPENAI_API_KEY="your-key"
export AZURE_OPENAI_ENDPOINT="your-endpoint"
```

### ROS Distro Configuration

Specify your target ROS2 distribution for enhanced retrieval and distro-specific answers:

```bash
# Set default ROS distro (overrides auto-detection)
export OORB_ROS_DISTRO=humble

# Or use the standard ROS environment variable
export ROS_DISTRO=humble
```

**Supported ROS2 Distributions:**
- `humble` (LTS) - Ubuntu 20.04, 22.04
- `iron` - Ubuntu 22.04
- `jazzy` (LTS) - Ubuntu 24.04
- `rolling` - Latest development version
- Legacy ROS1: `noetic`, `melodic`

### Custom Retrieval Endpoint

Configure your own vector database or retrieval API:

```bash
# Use custom retrieval endpoint
export OORB_RETRIEVAL_ENDPOINT="http://your-server:8000"

# Or use the standard configuration
export RETRIEVAL_API_BASE_URL="http://your-server:8000"
```
---

## Usage

Once installed, the CLI becomes available via the `oorb` command (or `python oorb_cli.py` if unlinked).

### Main Commands

#### `chat` - Interactive ROS2 Assistant

Start an interactive chat session or ask a single question with full customization options.

**Basic Usage:**
```bash
# Interactive mode
oorb chat

# Single question mode
oorb chat -p "How do I create a custom message type in ROS2?"

# With specific ROS distro
oorb chat --distro humble -p "create a publisher node"
oorb chat -d jazzy

# With custom retrieval endpoint
oorb chat --retrieval-endpoint http://localhost:9000 -p "setup navigation stack"
```

**Available Options:**
- `-b, --backend` - Choose LLM backend: `azure`, `openai`, or `ollama`
- `-m, --model` - Specify model name (e.g., `gpt-4o-mini`, `gpt-3.5-turbo`)
- `-t, --temperature` - Set response creativity (0.0-1.0, default: 0.3)
- `-d, --distro` - ROS distro to use (e.g., humble, jazzy, rolling)
- `-r, --retrieval-endpoint` - Custom retrieval API endpoint URL
- `-p, --prompt` - Single prompt for non-interactive mode
- `--use-tools/--no-tools` - Enable/disable tool calling (default: auto-detect)

**Examples:**
```bash
# Use specific backend and model with ROS distro
oorb chat -b openai -m gpt-4o-mini -d humble -t 0.7

# Quick question with custom settings
oorb chat -b azure -m gpt-3.5-turbo -d jazzy -p "Create a ROS2 launch file for navigation"

# Use custom retrieval endpoint
oorb chat -r http://my-vector-db:8000 -d rolling -p "Setup SLAM toolbox"

# Disable tools for faster responses
oorb chat --no-tools -d humble -p "What is a ROS2 node?"
```

# List only local Ollama models
oorb list-models -b ollama
```

#### `status` - System Health Check

- Ollama service status and available models
- Retrieval API connectivity and endpoint information
- Current ROS distro detection
- Available backends
- Configuration warnings and errors
- Quick setup recommendations

## Advanced Configuration

### Priority Order for Settings

OORB CLI uses the following priority order for configuration:

**ROS Distro Selection:**
1. `--distro` command line parameter
2. `OORB_ROS_DISTRO` environment variable
3. `ROS_DISTRO` environment variable (standard ROS)
4. Auto-detection from installed ROS distributions

**Retrieval Endpoint Selection:**
1. `--retrieval-endpoint` command line parameter
2. `OORB_RETRIEVAL_ENDPOINT` environment variable
3. `RETRIEVAL_API_BASE_URL` environment variable
4. Default: `http://localhost:8000`

### Configuration Examples

```bash
# Set persistent defaults via environment
export OORB_ROS_DISTRO=humble
export OORB_RETRIEVAL_ENDPOINT=http://my-vector-db:8000
export OPENAI_API_KEY=your-api-key

# Override defaults for specific commands
oorb chat -d jazzy -r http://localhost:9000 -p "your question"

# Test your configuration
oorb status
oorb test-retrieval
oorb list-distros
```
