🧠 Sage-assistant-windows - Your Intelligent AI CLI Assistant


Sage is a powerful command-line AI assistant built with Node.js and powered by Mistral AI. It lets you interact with your system using natural language, read files, fetch system data, and run safe commands in a seamless, intelligent experience — right from your terminal.

> ⚡ Imagine talking to your terminal and it responds like ChatGPT, but with access to your actual system. That’s Sage-assistant-windows.

While tools like OpenAI Codex (powered by GPT-4) are reshaping how developers interact with code, Sage offers a lightweight, open-source alternative with several distinct advantages:

🆓 Completely free to use — powered by the open Mistral API (No paid subscription needed — the free tier works just fine for Sage.)

💻 Local-first design — no code is sent to centralized servers unless explicitly configured

🔐 Transparent and safe — ideal for those who value control and privacy
