Adaptive Error Handling

Cookie AI CLI is designed not only to understand and execute commands based on natural language inputs but also to learn from command execution errors. Read more to learn how the CLI tool adapts to previous errors by suggesting new, potentially corrective commands.

Adaptive Error Handling

When a command executed through Cookie AI CLI results in an error, the tool captures this feedback. Instead of merely reporting the error, it uses the context of the error to suggest a new, potentially corrective command. This feature is particularly useful in scenarios where:

• The executed command depends on a tool or package that is not installed.
• There is a typo or syntax error in the command.
• The command is not appropriate for the given context or system configuration.

Example Scenario: Missing Dependency

Consider a situation where you ask Cookie AI CLI to execute a command in a linux environment that requires a certain tool or package that isn’t installed on the system. Upon encountering an error, the CLI doesn’t stop at simply reporting the issue. Instead, it suggests a command to install the missing tool or package.

Original Command:

ai check disk usage

CLI Response (Error):

Error: 'df' command not found.

Adaptive Suggestion:

Suggested command: sudo apt-get install coreutils

Example Scenario: Syntax Error

In another case, if there's a syntax error in the command, Cookie AI CLI will suggest a command with the correct syntax.

Original Command:

ai list file in directory

CLI Response (Error):

Error: syntax error near unexpected token `in'

Adaptive Suggestion:

Suggested command: ls -l

Learning from Mistakes

The adaptive error handling mechanism is a form of continuous learning. By processing the context and content of errors, Cookie AI CLI becomes more efficient in handling similar scenarios in the future. This feature enhances user experience by reducing repetitive command entries and minimizing potential frustrations.

Troubleshooting and Feedback

While Cookie AI CLI aims to adapt and suggest accurate corrective commands, there may be instances where manual intervention is required:

• Check for Contextual Relevance: Ensure the suggested command is relevant to your current task.
• Manual Correction: If the suggestion does not resolve the issue, you may need to manually correct the command or address the underlying problem.

Your feedback is crucial for improving Cookie AI CLI. If you encounter persistent issues or have suggestions, please reach out on our GitHub Issues page or join our Discord Community.

Remember, Cookie AI CLI is not just a tool for executing commands—it's a learning assistant that evolves with your command-line usage, making your experience more intuitive and efficient.
