Just discovered litecli (https://github.com/dbcli/litecli), it feels like a big improvement over the default SQLite REPL (autocompletion! support for multiline queries! syntax highlighting!)

@simonwillison.net and @alexgarcia.xyz I'd love to do a lightning talk to show how llm tool is used in LiteCLI to help with writing SQL queries. I filled out the google form to enroll in the office hours. I haven't heard back from you folks.

Auto-Completing Click Commands Click is a python library for creating command line applications in Python. The llm tool created by Simon uses click and it has a lot of subcommands. eg: $ llm keys set openai Enter key: ... $ llm mod...

I realize there is `llm models default` which tells you (and lets you change) the current default. But I thought listing the default model in the top level sub-command would be a nice UX improvement. github.com/simonw/llm/p...

@simonwillison.net Thoughts about listing the default model when invoking `llm models`?

Kinda like:
```
$ llm models
Default: gpt-4o
OpenAI Chat: gpt-4o (aliases: 4o)
OpenAI Chat: gpt-4o-mini (aliases: 4o-mini)
```

What does it mean when you say the affinity is greater? How does that affect performance?

I’ve seen you type code during your talks. For the rest of us mere mortals who type slightly less than the speed of light it is quite useful. 😆
