## What it is
navi is an interactive cheatsheet tool for the command-line that lets users browse, search, and execute commands from cheatsheets with dynamic argument suggestions. It is written in Rust, uses fzf or skim under the hood, and can run as a standalone command, shell widget, or tmux widget.

## Use cases
- find commands without memorizing CLI flags
- browse and run shell snippets interactively
- manage personal cheatsheets in the terminal
- insert commands into the shell like Ctrl-R history search
- share and import cheatsheets from git repositories
- use cheatsheets inside tmux or SSH sessions

## When to choose
- you frequently forget command syntax and want searchable snippets
- you want dynamic argument suggestions when running commands
- you want a shell widget that populates history with the actual command
- you want to share cheatsheets via git repositories

## When to avoid
- you need a GUI snippet manager
- you want fully automated command execution without interaction
- you prefer a built-in shell history search without external dependencies like fzf

## Facets

- platform: windows, cli, cross-platform
