Stop retyping commands

Cheat Sheets catalog
Pick a ready-made command from the catalog, then fill it in

If you keep typing the same command with slightly different arguments — and occasionally fat-finger a flag — Cheat Sheets are for you. They make the command a template you fill in, preview, and paste.

  1. Open Cheat Sheets

    Summon the panel and switch to the Cheat Sheets tab. Pick a template from the catalog — each shows a risk and target badge.

  2. Fill in the blanks

    Enter the parameters in the form. Values can come from a preset, the clipboard, your selection, or history — and numbers and paths are validated as you type.

  3. Preview the exact command

    Hutchlet shows the rendered command with your values substituted and safely quoted. Read it. Nothing has happened yet.

  4. Deliver it your way

    Choose Copy or Paste without Enter into your terminal — then run it when you’re ready. Hutchlet never presses Enter for you by default.

  5. Save it for next time

    Bookmark the filled-in sheet to the Saved tab so you don’t even fill it in again.

Built-in guardrails

  • Risk badges from Safe to Destructive warn you before you act.
  • Forbidden-path validation stops a destructive template from pointing at / or /etc.
  • A command that looks like production asks for extra confirmation.

The payoff: correct syntax every time, no typos in flags, and the same command your whole team uses — without memorising any of it.
