Shell with built-in, locally run AI? (sh.itjust.works)

I am sure to upset a lot of purists with this, but as a hobby "sysadmin" of my own linux server at home, an AI built into the shell would do wonders to me.

I found bash-ai, but that seems to me like little more than a wrapper for ChatGPT queries.

In an ideal scenario, I'd like to employ a pre-trained, locally run AI that has access to all files, including config files and the list of installed packages, so it can, for example, tell me what specific lines in config files do or if a package I have already installed is good for a task I want to do or what the merge conflict between configs during an upgrade is about.

Is there such a built-in AI?

I am aware that someone let their coding agent delete their database. I am not looking to vibe-code. I want a "Clippy", if that makes sense. Not an agent that does stuff for me, but that answers my questions.

Far be it from me to yuck anyone's yum, but did you have to pick almost the worst possible analogy to describe it? XD

The only differentiating factor here is time.

And an anthropomorphic representation, I guess.
