lore
A command library that lives in your shell. Press ctrl+g, type a few letters of
what you are trying to do, and the command lands in your prompt ready to run.
The problem
The commands worth keeping are the ones you write once every few months: the
kubectl invocation that finds the pod that keeps restarting, the openssl line
that prints a certificate’s expiry, the git incantation that finds which commit
deleted a function. Shell history keeps them for a while and then loses them
between machines, between sessions, or behind four hundred cd .. entries.
History is a log. What you want is a library: curated, described in words you would actually search for, versioned in git, and open one keystroke away.
