In their own words
Snipline
Snipline is a developer tool for organizing shell commands and retrieving complex commands with dynamic parameters. Snippets can use variables and multi-choice presets, so users can adapt a saved command to different inputs. Its keyboard-first interface supports searching for and copying commands without a mouse; tags, search, and import and export tools help manage a collection. The pricing page lists offline use and unlimited snippets subject to a fair use policy. Snipline offers a web option and desktop apps for Mac, Windows and Linux. On macOS, Snipbar adds a menu bar app with a customizable global keybind, Vim keybinds and Spotlight integration. SnipCLI is a free, open-source terminal tool for macOS and Linux that syncs snippets from a Snipline account and can search and run commands. The paid Choose your price plan is listed at $91,827 a year, billed per year, with all features, unlimited snippets under fair use and no device limit. A 30-day trial is available, but there is no free plan. Snippets are stored in clear text, and Snipline advises against storing passwords or authentication tokens.
