when using it in container mode, it lost the awareness of the actual os and shell

[binaryoak]

for example, I am using macos, yet when I asked the system update commands, it gave me the ones for debian/ubuntu, because this is the env of the docker image.

maybe supporting providing such info in the config files or some env vars?

How are you sure its referring to base image(linux) of docker to answer regarding update commands?

[binaryoak]

because my os is macos, yet the system update command it gave was apt-get which is for the base image used by python-3-slim -- FROM debian:bullseye-slim

I addressed this in my fork https://github.com/saifmode/shell_gpt

@TheR1D feel free to cherry pick this commit cec01d0
I also added support for other models in my fork.

@binaryoak Please note, when running a docker build you should also specify your shell. For example, if your Mac is running ZSH, but you're running ShellGPT via docker, it will think you're running PowerShell, and sometimes the chatbot will claim it doesn't know about ZSH. Check the README.md in my fork for more info on how to put the correct OS and shell into your docker container's env vars.

I think my PR #540 offers a decent solution to this :)
