I love atuin -- the shared shell command memory function solves a problem that I had (recalling obscure CLI commands)

I'll try atuin desktop and I hope it succeeds, but I can't say that it solves any particular problem that I have and am aware of.

I had the same thoughts a few months ago, and then someone told me Atuin Desktop is made for DevOps and the likes, in order to scale manual and repetitive operations accross many teams. This made sense to me.

  • Tried it few days ago, and came to same conclusion myself. In a way, it's like Ansible but simpler for some use cases.

  • We have CI actions we use to configure and deploy dev namespaces. We document a bunch of steps for these actions in a doc, including situational tweaks. I could see this being a great replacement for that, given the right integrations.

I had the same feeling. It looks like a super cool product, and I'd love to do something with it. I just have no idea what.
