Summary

OpenAI's openai-cli repository releases version 1.40.2 with local command search and prompt insertion, letting users press Ctrl+X then Tab to find suggestions without running them. The Go-based tool defaults image saves to gpt-image-2.5-sunburst and writes files to ~/Downloads/gpt-images/. It installs through Homebrew or Go 1.26 or later.

Key Points

  • The repository states double Tab is an optional binding for Bash, zsh and fish.
  • OpenAI retires images create-variation, directing users to images edit with a GPT Image model and prompt.
  • Bare openai checks for stable releases at most once every seven days, skipping CI and redirected streams.
