New Blog Post! 🚀
Quick tip for anyone who lives in the terminal: use Claude from the CLI. Need help with a command? Just "ASK".
I created two simple shell functions, "ask" and "explain", that use Claude Code to answer CLI questions right in your terminal. No new app, no extra subscription, just a one-time setup.
✅ ask find all files over 1GB → get the command
✅ explain tar -xzvf file.tar.gz → get it broken down
✅ Works in zsh and PowerShell
✅ Works in any terminal: Ghostty, iTerm2, Windows Terminal
Full setup and samples here:

BTS at #VMwareExplore: Meet the team running our Hands-on Labs! ⚡
The creators in this photo are the exact engineers and volunteers who spent months building every module from scratch. Have a question about a lab? You're asking the person who wrote it. @VMwareHOL
ALT A large group of people stands together on a patterned blue carpet in front of a backdrop featuring the words "Private Cloud. Private AI. Proven Success." The setting appears to be a conference or corporate event.
