AI text & code generators
Large language models draft and rewrite text, summarise, answer questions, and write code — including the commands, queries and config snippets cmdgen started with.
The tools
- Claude — strong at long-form writing, careful reasoning and code. Generous free tier, with paid plans for heavier use.
- ChatGPT — a capable general-purpose assistant for writing and code. Free tier, plus paid plans.
- GitHub Copilot — code completion and chat inside your editor and terminal. Free tier for many users; paid for full features.
Which one should you use?
- Long documents and careful reasoning: Claude.
- A do-everything assistant: ChatGPT.
- Autocomplete while you code: GitHub Copilot.
Always check the output: models can state wrong things
confidently and can invent commands, APIs or citations. Read and test anything before you run or
publish it — treat it as a strong first draft, not a final answer.
