Changelog

Unreleased

Check

• Stop a suggestion when a loop or a branch never closes, or when a pipe has nothing in it.
• Raise commands that replace an existing file, lose uncommitted work or show settings.

Test

• Add version 0.2 of the command and decision models, trained only on data with clear licences.

0.1.0 - 2026-11-06

The first release of termite. It covers everything built so far, at a high level.

Ask

• Turn a plain request into a shell command with a local model, with ?, ?? and ?x in your shell.
• Choose between several commands, each with a rating and a reason.
• Write a script as a draft, and check it before you install it.
• Set up harnesses and local models with tmite setup. It works with llama.cpp, Ollama and LM Studio.

Check

• Rate every command at one of six levels, in plain code, with no model involved.
• Rate scripts and piped commands with tmite check.
• Use a decision model to rank commands and answer safety questions. It can only make an answer stricter.

Gate

• Keep root commands from the prompt, and withhold hostile commands. No setting lowers a guard.
• Check an agent’s shell commands before they run, with hooks for agent harnesses.
• Turn down suggestions that can’t be used as written: cut-off lines, placeholders, and programs that aren’t installed.
• Keep a signed log of what termite installed and what its guards stopped.

Test

• Publish safety ratings for local models, from tests that run in a sandbox.
• Test what commands really do in a throwaway machine with no network.
• Publish two small models for termite: termite-command-4b and termite-decide-0.8b.
