## 项目历史与用法

Fanyi is a Chinese-English command-line translation tool. The README describes it as powered by iciba, Youdao, and LLM translation, with the `fanyi` command and shorter `fy` alias.

### 项目历史

The repository was created in December 2013, making Fanyi one of the longer-running small CLI tools in this batch. Its core workflow remains intentionally simple: install globally with npm or bun, then run `fanyi word` or `fy word` for dictionary and translation output.

In 2026, the v11.0.0 release announcement in the README highlighted a shift toward out-of-the-box LLM translation through a built-in free proxy, restored Youdao support, streaming semantic coloring, custom OpenAI-compatible LLM configuration, and an agent skill.

### 采用历史

Official project surfaces include npm distribution, Homebrew packaging in the input facts, GitHub releases, and README badges for npm version and monthly downloads. The repository metadata also shows substantial GitHub interest for a small translation CLI.

### 使用方式

The normal user flow is `fanyi <word-or-sentence>` or `fy <word-or-sentence>`, with support for Chinese and English words, phrases, and sentences. `fanyi list` shows lookup history.

Configuration lives at `~/.config/fanyi/.fanyirc` and can be managed with `fanyi config set`. Users can disable individual sources, turn color off, or set `LLM_API_KEY`, `LLM_API_BASE_URL`, and `LLM_MODEL_ID` for custom OpenAI-compatible models.

### 为什么软件包爱好者会关心

Fanyi is package-manager-friendly because it turns a web dictionary and translation workflow into a tiny global CLI. Its 2026 LLM and agent-skill additions also show how older Node command-line packages are being refreshed for AI-agent and model-backed workflows.
