Show HN: Dk

Dk is a command-line tool for organizing and documenting command line tools to make them easier to discover.

Background

- **Dk** is a new open-source command-line tool (by GitHub user hq6) that helps users organize, document, and easily find the various command-line tools and scripts they have installed. Think of it as a personal catalog or man-page generator for your own collection of CLI utilities, making discovery easier when you have many tools. - This matters because developers, sysadmins, and power users often accumulate dozens or hundreds of command-line tools. Remembering what each one does, its syntax, or even that it exists becomes a problem. Dk solves "I know I have a tool for that, but what was it called?" - The project is posted as a "Show HN" on Hacker News, meaning it's a maker presenting their own creation to the tech community for feedback. It's written in an unspecified language and is hosted on GitHub under the MIT license (permissive open source).
