CLI for the ALICE (AWS Language Intelligence and Cognitive Exploration) project at Johns Hopkins. Manages Bedrock credentials, invokes LLMs, and provides AI research utilities.

Built with Click, boto3, Rich, and Textual. Packaged with Poetry.

## Prerequisites

- Python 3.12+
- AWS CLI configured with an SSO profile (e.g. `drcc-ai`)
- Active SSO session: `aws sso login --profile <PROFILE>`

## Installation

```bash
cd alice-cli

# Standard
poetry install

# With TUI support
poetry install --extras tui

# With AgentCore support
poetry install --extras agentcore

# With Strands agent support (LLM-powered citation verification)
poetry install --extras strands

# pipx (isolated, recommended for CLI tools)
pipx install .
pipx install ".[tui]"
```

The `alice` command is available on your PATH after installation.

One-off use without installing:

```bash
uvx --from ./alice-cli alice env --profile myprofile
```

## Getting started

### 1. Authenticate

```bash
alice auth --profile <PROFILE>
```

Detects your JHED from the SSO session, fetches your Bedrock API key from Secrets Manager, and saves credentials (including per-user inference profile ARNs) to `~/.alice/credentials.json`. Most commands work without `--profile` after this.

### 2. Verify

```bash
alice status
```

Shows SSO session state, identity, region, and namespace.

### 3. Export credentials

```bash
# Load credentials into your current shell
eval $(alice env --eval)

# .env file format
alice env --env-file

# Raw JSON
alice env --json
```

Output to stdout. Status messages to stderr, so piping and `eval` work correctly.

## Using with Claude Code

```bash
alice auth --profile <PROFILE> --claude
```

Fetches credentials, sets all required environment variables (including per-user inference profile ARNs for Opus, Sonnet, Haiku), and `exec`s into `claude`. After the first run, you can use just:

```bash
alice auth --claude
```

## API key mode

Skip SSO entirely with a Bedrock API key:

```bash
alice auth --api-key <SECRET_KEY>
# or
export BEDROCK_SECRET_KEY="ABSK..."
export BEDROCK_ACCESS_KEY="BedrockAPIKey-yourjhed-at-123456789012"
```

Note: inference profile ARNs require at least one prior `alice auth --profile` run.

## Invoking models

```bash
alice invoke "Explain the Krebs cycle"
alice invoke --model-id opus "Summarize this paper"
alice chat
alice chat --model-id nova-pro
```

Default model: `sonnet` → `us.anthropic.claude-sonnet-4-6`.

```bash
alice list-aliases   # show all aliases (sonnet, opus, haiku, nova-pro, deepseek-r1, etc.)
alice list-models    # list Bedrock foundation models
```

## Multi-model commands

```bash
# Compare responses from multiple models
alice compare "What is entropy?" --models sonnet,nova-pro,mistral-large

# Watch two models debate each other
alice dialog "What is the best programming language?" --models sonnet,nova-pro

# Process many prompts from a CSV
alice batch prompts.csv

# Summarize a file or stdin
alice summarize paper.pdf
cat notes.txt | alice summarize -
```

## Session history

```bash
alice recall              # browse all sessions
alice recall --type chat  # filter by type
alice recall --model sonnet
alice appraise            # view token usage and costs
```

Sessions are stored in S3 (CloudLocker) with local fallback under `~/.alice/locker/`.

## Secrets

```bash
alice get-secret                  # your own Bedrock API key secret
alice get-secret myapp-config     # short name (auto-prefixes namespace/environment)
alice list-secrets                # list all secrets under namespace/environment
```

## Quota

```bash
alice quota
alice quota --jhed someuser
```

View token usage and remaining quota from the Cheshire Gate tracking table.

## Citations

```bash
# Look up a single reference
alice cite lookup "10.1038/s41598-023-41032-5"
alice cite lookup "Attention is All You Need" --output-format apa

# Batch-process a file of references
alice cite process refs.txt
alice cite process refs.txt --output-format apa -o bibliography.txt
alice cite process refs.txt --strict --no-agent

# Re-render an existing BibTeX file
alice cite format refs.bib --output-format mla

# Browse past citation sessions
alice cite history
alice cite history --since 2025-01-01 --keyword "machine learning"
alice cite history --show <session-id> --output-format apa
alice cite history --export <session-id> -o citations.bib
```

The pipeline resolves references against seven academic APIs (CrossRef, arXiv, PubMed, OpenLibrary, GitHub, Zenodo, DataCite), verifies citations via adversarial cross-referencing (Red Queen), and outputs BibTeX, APA, or MLA. Use `--strict` to exclude unverified citations, `--no-agent` to force deterministic verification, and `--no-cache` to bypass the citation cache.

Optional extras: `poetry install --extras strands` for LLM-powered verification, `poetry install --extras agentcore` for citation caching.

## AWS CLI passthrough

```bash
alice run s3 ls
alice run secretsmanager list-secrets
```

Injects `--region` and `--profile` from alice context if not already present.

## Configuration

```bash
alice config    # show resolved config and sources
```
