What it does

About cl

cl is a personal command launcher that stores shell commands mapped by name in a JSON configuration file for interactive search in the terminal. Operating across macOS, Linux, and Windows, cl persists commands in native application data directories and keeps command strings hidden by default during selection so users can execute commands discreetly.
