A tool with custom commands and CMD fallback.
Built for developers who live in the terminal.
/ Features
Ducky extends your command-line workflow with powerful built-in commands while staying fully compatible with the Windows CMD ecosystem.
Ducky ships with its own command layer — purpose-built, fast, and intuitive. Every command is designed for real developer workflows: navigate directories, open files, search the web, and handle URLs without ever leaving your terminal context. Compose commands naturally with clean, readable syntax.
Core EngineUnknown command? Ducky forwards it to Windows CMD automatically — or use ---forcecmd to route any input directly.
Run searchweb <query> to fetch the top 5 DuckDuckGo results inline, without leaving Ducky.
Open any file or media with show. Ducky tracks playback position and resumes exactly where you left off.
Use open <url> to launch a URL in your default browser, or inspect it directly in terminal mode for raw output.
