Why local AI agents like Claude Code and Codex rely on shell access

AISummary

Local and desktop agents such as Claude Code and Codex are powerful largely because they can use the shell, which connects them to the whole CLI ecosystem. The post lists tools including git, ffmpeg, curl, pandoc, gh, cron, and ssh as examples. It also says the video itself was produced by an agent operating the shell.

【100 秒搞懂(agent 之所以强大的)shell】

claude code 和 codex 这样的本地/桌面 agent 之所以强大,一大原因就是因为它能够使用 shell,而 Shell 连通的是整个 CLI 生态,例如 git、ffpmeg、curl、pandoc、gh、cron、ssh……

甚至这个视频,都是agent 靠操作 shell 做出来的🤣
