Show HN: A macOS app to search for CLI commands quickly (askcommand.com)

As basically just a wrapper for the OpenAI API, why would I pay for this? I could do the sane thing in the OpenAI Playground.


I built this app to help me save ~15 seconds every time I have to go on Google to search for common commands like

- Check which process is listening from a port

- Open a port in ufw

- Show headers in a curl request

- etc.

I've been using it for a week and I love it. Would love to hear your thoughts/feedback. Cheers!


I typically use control+R to search. If not, I use `history | grep something`. I also rarely clear my shell history.

Lastly, not sure how I feel about your credit system.


This is a cool app, although a CLI seems like a better interface than a macOS app, unless, of course, you plan to have a richer UI later.


If you get to the point where you wanna build pricing plans...payments etc. check out our beta www.salable.app
