From the README
# fauxnix **Run Linux-style commands on Windows — natively, deterministically, no VM, no WSL.** fauxnix is a bash→PowerShell translation layer built for AI agents. Your agent keeps writing the bash it already knows (`ls -la | grep foo`, `find . -name '*.ts' | wc -l`, `kill -9 1234`), and fauxnix deterministically translates each command into PowerShell, executes it natively, and hands back output that looks like GNU/Linux: `ls -l` columns, bash-style error messages, coreutils exit codes, UTF-8/GBK handled automatically. One-command install for **Claude Code · Codex · OpenCode · Kimi Code · Qwen Code**, plus any MCP client. **109 translated commands · 400+ automated tests · 253-case differential corpus verified against real GNU coreutils · zero LLM calls at runtime.** ## Try it now — no install ```bash npx fauxnix-cli@latest "ls -la src | head -3" npx fauxnix-cli@latest translate "find . -name '*.log' -mtime +7 -delete" ``` ``` $ fauxnix "ls -la src | head -2" -rw-r--r-- 1 me me 1Read full README on GitHub →
