## Explore the Linux kernel source code with AI-generated summaries
The Linux kernel is a large and complex codebase, with over 30 million lines of code. Understanding the codebase can be challenging, especially for newcomers. To help developers navigate the codebase more easily, this is a lightweight tool that uses GPT-4o to generate summaries of the Linux kernel source code as you explore.

## Installation
```bash
pip install ai-kernel-explorer # or ideally pipx install ai-kernel-explorer
```
Ensure your OpenAI API key is set in the `OPENAI_API_KEY` environment variable or --api-key option.
```text
usage: ai-kernel-explorer [-h] [--api-key API_KEY] [--cache CACHE] [--model MODEL] [--version] [root]
Explore the Linux kernel source code with AI-generated summaries.
positional arguments:
root The root directory of the Linux kernel source code. (default: /usr/src)
options:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
--api-key API_KEY Your OpenAI API key. (default: $OPENAI_API_KEY)
--cache CACHE The path to store AI responses. (default: ~/.cache/ai-kernel-explorer)
--model MODEL The OpenAI model to use. (default: gpt-4o)
--version show program's version number and exit
```
