Show HN: Savvy – Create, Share and Run Runbooks from your Terminal

83 pointsby joshi412 months ago
Savvy&#x27;s CLI allows you to create, share, and run runbooks from your terminal.<p>Savvy(getsavvy.so) natively integrates with modern LLMs and reduces the time to create a great runbook from minutes and hours to seconds.<p>Savvy supports creating runbooks entirely with AI(savvy ask) or a human in the loop(savvy record.)<p>Savvy Ask: Generate entire runbooks or a single command using natural language.<p>Savvy Record: This creates a new subshell that automatically expands all aliases before recording commands locally. These commands are then sent to an LLM, which generates the first version of your runbook.<p>Savvy Record History: This command allows you to go back in time and select commands from your recent shell history. There&#x27;s no need to repeat the work you&#x27;ve already done.<p>Runbooks are private by default, but you can share them with your team using a link(for now) or export them to markdown.<p>Savvy Explain: Savvy explain generates a simple and easy-to-understand explanation for any command or error message before you can say RTFM!<p>Savvy Run: Use `savvy run` to search and run runbooks right from your terminal. Once you select a runbook, Savvy automatically fills in the next command to execute. Just press enter to run it.<p>Savvy&#x27;s README has more details and demos for everything I just mentioned.<p>Savvy&#x27;s free, and anyone can try it out today.<p>Install Savvy by running: curl -fsSL <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;install.getsavvy.so" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;install.getsavvy.so</a> | sh<p>If you try Savvy, I&#x27;d love your feedback on the product.

This thread feels astroturfed, or at least like some overly enthusiastic friend-posting.<p>Buncha low activity accounts posting marketing copy style testimonials.<p>I’m not saying it was necessarily intentional manipulation, but it feels off for a Show HN.

I spent about two minutes looking at it, I have no idea what a runbook is or what this project does and is used for.<p>&quot;From fixing prod to local dev...&quot; ?????

I am an active customer of Savvy. With savvy, I am able to offload a lot of operations tasks we were afraid of delegating to ops team before because of two reasons - 1. Training our team was difficult. Now the ops team finds the assistance due to savvy run very helpful. 2. We have insights into what our ops team is doing.<p>Hoping to scale savvy to more use cases as they role out features that create and destroy environment variables automatically. This will reduce the chance of secret leakage.

I&#x27;ve been using savvy for a few weeks now. As part of my work I end up doing a lot of adhoc scripting on the command line and savvy ask has been pretty useful for that. I use it more like a GitHub copilot right now and just like copilot it feels like collaborating with another eng (keeps me in the flow and avoid getting distracted). I expect that my usage will transition towards the runbook features as our startup grows and the tech stack mature

This would be great at work, but most orgs would never allow some terminal app to connect out to an LLM we&#x27;ve never heard of and have no understanding of the privacy of, especially for difficult to quantify efficiency gains.<p>Would you ever consider a version that allows redirecting to a locally hosted LLM server?

been using savvy for a bit - shantanu gave me early access!<p>love how simple it is to use, personally been loving the savvy ask&#x2F;explain in the last couple of weeks - been super easy to ask questions in the terminal and just get answers<p>but the history is quite good too, very cool to share notebooks with others on the team

This product looks really cool! But I would have to know more about the pricing model before I could recommend it at work. Also, does it work across SSH sessions? ie can I shell into a different machine as part of the runbook?

Excited to try it. How does it do with privacy? Are my runbooks used to train any models?

I run a small startup and I&#x27;ve been using Savvy for a few months to help our team with repetitive commands around deploying and testing. Very happy early user and excited for what&#x27;s ahead here!

The DX is very natural. It lacks certain important features but I guess it will get there.
