## Overview

Xerxes is an intelligent DevOps assistant that transforms natural language into bash commands. Unlike traditional tools with predefined commands, Xerxes leverages **full bash capabilities** with **intelligent resource discovery** to execute complex operations across your entire infrastructure.

## Features

### Core Capabilities

- **Full Bash Shell Access**: Execute ANY command with complete shell features
  - Pipes, redirection, chaining (`|`, `>`, `>>`, `&&`, `||`)
  - Variables, loops, conditionals, subshells
  - Process substitution and command expansion
- **Intelligent Resource Discovery**: Automatic fuzzy matching and pattern-based discovery
  - Never assumes exact names - always discovers first
  - Pattern: `SEARCH → MATCH → OPERATE`
  - Works with files, pods, containers, instances, and more
- **Token-Efficient Operations**: Minimal output formatting for faster responses
  - Uses `-o name`, `--format`, `--query` flags
  - Field projection to reduce token usage
- **Interactive Approval**: See command + reasoning before execution
  - `[R]un` - Execute this command
  - `[S]kip` - Skip and continue
  - `[A]lways` - Auto-approve for session
- **Multi-Cloud & Multi-Tool**: kubectl, docker, aws, gcloud, helm, jq, ffmpeg, git, and more
- **Safety First**: Automatic detection of destructive operations with confirmation prompts

## Installation

### Using UV (Recommended)

```bash
uv tool install xerxes
```

To update to the latest version:

```bash
uv tool upgrade xerxes
```

### From Source

```bash
git clone https://github.com/shammianand/xerxes.git
cd xerxes
uv sync
```

## Quick Start

### 1. Prerequisites

- **Python 3.10+**
- **GCP Project** with Vertex AI API enabled
- **Service Account** or API key for Vertex AI
- **Optional**: Install CLI tools you want to use (kubectl, docker, aws, gcloud)

### 2. Configuration

Create a `.env` file:

```bash
XERXES_VERTEX_PROJECT_ID=your-gcp-project-id
XERXES_VERTEX_LOCATION=us-central1
XERXES_VERTEX_MODEL=gemini-2.0-flash
XERXES_GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS=/path/to/service-account.json
```

Or use the CLI:

```bash
xerxes config set vertex_project_id your-gcp-project-id
xerxes config set google_application_credentials /path/to/sa.json
```

### 3. Start Chatting

```bash
xerxes chat
```

## Usage

### Example Session


https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/350d91eb-b999-4c18-aba3-52d4e430bb8e


**Operations:**
```
"Scale the api deployment to 5 replicas"
"Delete all pods in failed state"
"Create a new GCS bucket for backups"
```

## CLI Commands

```bash
# Start interactive chat
