The tool provides curated news, model rankings, tool health, and SDK adoption data from public sources, with zero dependencies and no authentication required.", "body_md": "The [gawk.dev](https://gawk.dev) live AI-ecosystem feed in your terminal.\n\n```\nnpx gawk-cli            # the curated wire, right now\nnpx gawk-cli models     # OpenRouter top-weekly rankings\nnpx gawk-cli tools      # tool health, vendor-declared\nnpx gawk-cli sdk        # SDK adoption from registry counters\n```\n\nFlags: `--limit N`\n\n· `--type TOOL_ALERT`\n\n· `--json`\n\n(raw API response, verbatim) · `--no-color`\n\n.\n\nSame as the dashboard: **every number traces to a public source.** Each card prints its source name, age, and URL. The CLI is a thin client over gawk's public read API — it derives nothing beyond arithmetic on numbers it also shows, and if a source is quiet or down you get honest quiet, never invention.\n\nZero dependencies. Node ≥ 18. No auth, no tracking (usage is counted server-side as anonymous aggregates only — hashed, never identities).\n\nInstalled globally (`npm i -g gawk-cli`\n\n), the command is `gawk-cli`\n\n— deliberately not `gawk`\n\n, which belongs to GNU awk on your system.", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-gawk-cli-a-live-ai-update-feed-in-your-terminal", "canonical_source": "https://github.com/Neelagiri65/gawk-cli", "published_at": "2026-07-07 20:51:06+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-07-07 20:59:37.337543+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["ai-tools", "developer-tools", "ai-infrastructure"], "entities": ["Gawk CLI", "gawk.dev", "OpenRouter", "Node.js", "npm"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-gawk-cli-a-live-ai-update-feed-in-your-terminal", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-gawk-cli-a-live-ai-update-feed-in-your-terminal.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-gawk-cli-a-live-ai-update-feed-in-your-terminal.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/show-hn-gawk-cli-a-live-ai-update-feed-in-your-terminal.jsonld"}}
