Workstation Tools

These tools are managed by mise because they add a concrete workflow rather than only replacing a command that already works.

Daily Tools

Command	Owner	Workflow	Real use case
vivid	20-workstation.toml	Generate LS_COLORS from the shared theme for Bash and Fish.	Keep file colors aligned with the Catppuccin theme used by the terminal, Yazi, bat, and editors.
ouch	20-workstation.toml via aqua:ouch-org/ouch	List, compress, and extract common archive formats.	Extract a downloaded .tar.zst or .zip without remembering a format-specific command.
jless	20-workstation.toml, Linux only	Inspect JSON interactively from files or command output.	Browse a large API response from xh or a checked-in JSON fixture without flattening it through jq.
tldr	20-workstation.toml via aqua:tealdeer-rs/tealdeer	Show short command examples.	Recall the right ouch, hurl, or gh invocation without leaving the terminal.
hurl	20-workstation.toml	Run repeatable HTTP request files.	Keep a project healthcheck or auth smoke request in a reviewable .hurl file.
navi	20-workstation.toml	Browse repo-owned command cheatsheets.	Find the exact worktree, docs, notes, Yazi, or HTTP command from the managed palette.
nvim	20-workstation.toml	Experiment-only terminal editor.	Try Neovim manually without repo-managed config or default editor wiring.

Examples:

vivid generate catppuccin-mocha
ouch list archive.zip
ouch decompress archive.tar.zst --dir extracted
xh GET http://127.0.0.1:3000/health | jless
tldr hurl

Optional Tools

Command	Owner	Workflow	Real use case
hexyl	50-optional.toml	Inspect binary files and back Yazi binary previews.	Check the first bytes of an image, executable, or generated artifact before deciding how to handle it.
numbat	50-optional.toml	Run unit-aware calculations.	Convert download sizes, durations, rates, and storage units without a browser.
zellij	50-optional.toml, Linux only	Evaluate a terminal workspace alternative.	Open a disposable multi-pane workspace on WSL or CachyOS while tmux remains the primary session workflow.

Examples:

hexyl -n 256 file.bin
numbat -e "2 GiB / (45 MiB/s)"
zellij

Deferred Candidates

sesh belongs with the tmux/session launcher work because it needs project integration to be useful. zellij stays optional and Linux-only until a manual evaluation shows it should replace or complement tmux in daily use.
