fauxnix

Runs Linux-style bash commands natively on Windows for AI agents, no VM or WSL required.

Pluginfreeglobal

fauxnix is a deterministic bash-to-PowerShell translation layer, shipped as an MCP server and CLI, that lets an AI coding agent's Linux-style commands run natively on Windows with GNU-style output and bash-style errors, without a VM or WSL. It targets developers running agents such as Claude Code or Codex directly on Windows.
