I kept re-searching the same shell commands and scattering aliases across notes, shell history, and shell config files, so I built Gloss. Gloss is a small open-source CLI/TUI tool for saving reusable shell commands with descriptions and tags. It lets you browse/search them in a terminal UI, scan zsh/bash configs for aliases, functions, and scripts, and safely sync managed aliases into shell config files with backups. It is written in Go, MIT-licensed, local-first, and supports macOS/Linux with zsh and bash. GitHub: https://github.com/Architeg/gloss
