Savvy – Capture and Share CLI Workflows in Seconds

With a simple savvy record history command, you can: - Go back in time and cherry pick commands from your shell history - Automatically expand aliases - Redact sensitive information locally - Convert hard-coded values into runtime placeholders - Export locally to markdown files or create shareable team workflows using Savvy. Savvy never reads command outputs - you explicitly choose what to share. When running workflows, Savvy…

In plain words

Savvy is a command-line tool that lets developers quickly capture, document, and share shell workflows. Users can select commands from their history, automatically expand aliases, redact sensitive data, and convert hard-coded values into placeholders before exporting to markdown or creating team workflows. The tool runs in a sub-shell to guide users through each step with runtime values handled automatically. It supports bash and zsh with beta Fish support.

    Savvy's CLI allows you to create, share, and run runbooks from your terminal. Savvy(getsavvy.so) natively integrates with modern LLMs and reduces the time to create a great runbook from minutes and hours to seconds. Savvy supports creating runbooks entirely with AI(savvy ask) or a human in the loop(savvy record.) Savvy Ask: Generate entire runbooks or a single command using natural language. Savvy Record: This creates a new subshell that automatically expands all aliases before recording commands locally. These commands are then sent to an LLM, which generates the first version of your…

  • Warp, a Rust-based terminal2022 · warp.dev · ▲946

    Hi HN community, I’m Zach, founder and CEO of Warp, and am excited to show you Warp, a fast Rust-based terminal that’s easy to use and built for teams. As of today, Warp is in public beta and any Mac user can download it. It works with bash, zsh, and fish. The terminal’s teletype-like interface has made it hard for the CLI to thrive. After 20 years of programming, I still find it hard to copy a command’s output; I always forget how to use `tar`; and I always have to relearn how to move my cursor. To fix fundamental accessibility issues, I believe we need to start innovating on the terminal,…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
