Advanced Features

MyLocalCLI includes powerful features inspired by professional CLI tools like OpenCode and AmpCode.

📌 Context Pinning

Pin important files to always include them in the AI's context. This ensures the AI always has access to critical files without you needing to reference them each time.

Commands

Example Usage

/pin src/config.js        # Always include config
/pin src/types.ts         # Always include types
/pins                     # See what's pinned
/unpin src/types.ts       # Remove from pinned

Tip: Pin your main types file, config, or any file you frequently reference!

🌿 Session Branching

Create conversation branches to explore different approaches without losing your current progress. Perfect for trying alternatives or exploring "what if" scenarios.

Commands

Example Usage

/branch refactor-attempt     # Save current state as branch
# ... try something different ...
/checkout refactor-attempt   # Go back to that branch
/checkout main               # Return to main

📦 Project Templates

Initialize your project with predefined configurations that help the AI understand your project structure and follow best practices.

Available Templates

Usage

/templates        # List all templates
/init react       # Initialize React project
/init python-api  # Initialize Python API

This creates a MYLOCALCLI.md file with project-specific guidelines.

🎯 Custom Skills

Create your own skills to teach the AI your specific workflows and preferences.

Commands

Creating a Skill

/skill create my-testing-standards

This creates a template at .mylocalcli/skills/my-testing-standards/SKILL.md that you can edit.

Skill File Format
