## Why anki-llm?

- **Process files or decks.** Export notes to reviewable CSV or YAML, process
  them with automatic resume, and import the result, or update a deck directly
  with previews, snapshots, and rollback support.

- **Generate cards interactively.** Create several cards for a term, compare
  them in a terminal UI, edit or regenerate candidates, catch duplicates, and
  import only the cards you choose.

- **Keep workflows in plain files.** Store prompts, note types, and per-project
  settings in a workspace that can be reviewed, versioned, and shared.

- **Add text-to-speech.** Fill audio fields in bulk or synthesize audio while
  generating cards, with voice browsing, caching, and multiple TTS providers.

- **Edit note types with normal tools.** Pull card template HTML and CSS into a
  workspace, edit them in your preferred editor or coding agent, and safely push
  them back to Anki.

- **Bring your preferred model.** Use OpenAI, Gemini, DeepSeek, xAI,
  OpenRouter, Ollama, or any OpenAI-compatible chat completions endpoint.

- **Give agents structured Anki access.** `anki-llm query` exposes AnkiConnect
  through a JSON-oriented CLI for collection inspection and agent-driven
  workflows.

## Quick start

Install with the release script:

```sh
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/raine/anki-llm/main/scripts/install.sh | bash
```

Or install with Homebrew:

```sh
brew install raine/anki-llm/anki-llm
```

Or install from crates.io:

```sh
cargo install anki-llm
```

Install the
[AnkiConnect add-on](https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/2055492159) and keep Anki
Desktop running for commands that read or change your collection. File-only LLM
processing with `process-file` can run while Anki is closed.

Set an API key for your provider. For example, with OpenAI:

```sh
export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-api-key"
```

Check the resolved model, workspace, credentials, and Anki connection without
changing your collection:

```sh
anki-llm doctor
```

Continue with the
[getting started guide](https://anki-llm.raine.dev/getting-started/) to create a
workspace and run your first processing or generation workflow.

## Development

Install the local quality tools and run the full read-only check suite:

```sh
just install-quality-tools
just check
```

`just check` writes full command output to `target/check-logs`. Use
`just format` or `just clippy-fix` when source files should be modified.
