what is superglide?

superglide is a native terminal AI interface built for speed. Unlike web-based tools, superglide runs directly on your machine with instant response times and deep shell integration.

why superglide?

  • Instant - Native binary, zero web latency. Type and see results immediately.
  • Terminal-native - Built for your workflow, not a browser tab.
  • Nushell integration - Pipe data directly to AI, process results as structured data.
  • Extensible - Plugin system for custom commands and workflows.

nushell integration

superglide speaks Nushell natively. Pipe command output to AI, search your codebase, process data:

file-search "authentication logic"
open chat.db | query db "SELECT * FROM messages" | archive decode
ls | where size > 1mb | superglide summarize

Data flows naturally between your shell and AI. No context switching, no copy-paste.

extensions

Extend superglide with plugins, scripts, and skills. Build custom commands for your workflow:

  • Plugins - Native Rust extensions for performance-critical operations
  • Scripts - Nushell scripts for quick automation
  • Skills - AI prompt templates and workflows
