If you spend your day bouncing between terminal tabs, websites lookups most of them filled with annoying ads, spreadsheets files spreading like forest and half-written incident notes, you know the real cost: missed details and slower RCA.
What s your single most annoying context-switch during troubleshooting?
e.g. copy/paste config snippets into chats/group conversations/docs
e.g. jumping from CLI to websites like what's the ip or PeeringDB/IANA than jumpt to tickets then back to CLI than maybe chats with colleagues
e.g. saving ping/traceroute outputs and screenshots for the incident report
Net Commander is a free, open-source VS Code extension for network troubleshooting and day-to-day ops.
Run multi-target ping/traceroute (even against CIDRs), look up IANA ports + PeeringDB/ASN info, do RFC-compliant subnet math, run quick Wi-Fi surveys + capture workflows, jump via saved SSH profiles and review configs with syntax highlighting + IP tooltips all without leaving your IDE.
Built to keep troubleshooting data-driven and reduce context switching.
