I rely on an unlimited bash history and fzf to fuzzy search through it. Commands that get too long and complicated might get thrown into a simple bash script, often quite literally "thrown" as a single line without any cleanup or extra logic.

I've tried making pretty scripts with many options, but as you said, then you just end up with another tool with many complicated options, not to mention the time it takes. I noticed that the quick and dirty scripts that I often just copy paste and tweak if I want to get a different functionality get by far the most use and survive the longest.

I've also been meaning to have a look at invoke[1] which seemed interesting, but I haven't gotten to it yet.
