ThinkingScript allows users to create executable programs by writing descriptions in plain text files. The system uses an LLM to interpret these descriptions and execute the intended functionality, enabling programming through natural language rather than traditional code.

Key features include running scripts with the 'think' command, which reads your words and asks before executing actions while remembering what works across runs. You can install thoughts as commands on your PATH using 'thought install', schedule thoughts using standard Unix tools like cron, and pipe thoughts together to create pipelines where output from one becomes input to the next. The system also supports running thoughts from any URL, allowing you to use community-shared scripts.

The approach involves creating .txt files containing natural language descriptions of what you want accomplished. An LLM interprets these descriptions and determines the appropriate actions to take, with all execution occurring within a secure sandbox environment for safety.

Benefits include the ability to create functional programs without writing traditional code, automate tasks using natural language descriptions, and share executable thoughts with others. Use cases demonstrated include weather checking, news aggregation, stock portfolio monitoring, and data formatting through pipeline composition.

The product targets users who want to create programs using natural language rather than traditional coding, with integration capabilities for Unix scheduling systems and command-line workflows. Technical details include installation via shell script and operation through command-line interfaces.
