sysaidmin 0.2.5

An LLM-powered sysadmin.

Sysaidmin

Sysaidmin is an LLM-powered sysadmin for your machine. You can ask it to solve a problem, and it will run commands on your system (with your permission) to debug what's going on.

Installation

Using uv (recommended):

$ uv tool install sysaidmin

Or, to run directly:

$ uvx sysaidmin

Using pip (less recommended, but still good):

$ pip install sysaidmin

Specify your OpenAI API key:

$ export SYSAIDMIN_API_KEY=sk-youropenaiapikeygoeshere

Then run Sysaidmin with your issue:

$ sysaidmin "The foo process is emailing me and I don't know why."

Using other models

Any model that supports the OpenAI Chat Completions API can be used. For example, to use Google Gemini:

> sysaidmin --api-key=$GEMINI_API_KEY -m gemini-2.5-flash-preview-04-17 \
  -b "https://generativelanguage.googleapis.com/v1beta/openai" \
  "How do I list files?"

Environment variables

You can use the following environment variables in place of parameters:

• SYSAIDMIN_BASE_URL: The base URL for the service.
• SYSAIDMIN_API_KEY: The API key.
• SYSAIDMIN_MODEL: The model to use.

Sample run:

$ sysaidmin "Whenever I try to SSH to localhost on port 22, it doesn't work. Can you fix it?"

==============================
It appears that your SSH server is running, but it is not listening on the default SSH
port 22. Instead, it is listening on port 8122 for both IPv4 and IPv6 connections, as
indicated by the line "Server listening on 0.0.0.0 port 8122" and "Server listening on
:: port 8122."

To connect via SSH to localhost, you need to specify port 8122. You can do that by using
the following command:

```bash
ssh -p 8122 localhost
```

Try running this command, and it should allow you to connect to the SSH server running
on your local machine.
==============================

Your response: No, please change the port

Running command: sudo sed -i 's/#Port 22/Port 22/' /etc/ssh/sshd_config && sudo systemctl restart ssh
