Although not built in, we have a list of easy to install command-line utilities for macOS.

You might find one you've never heard of that is useful! :)

Kinda related: does anyone else regularly finds CLI tools, installs them and never ever even call them once?

Ha, when I search through my history I usually find I ran them exactly once, right after installing, and then forgot all about them. But there are some exceptions, I often use httpie instead of curl, MTR is great, I am liking doggo instead of dig...
