Show HN: Wut – a CLI that explains the output of your last command with an LLM

Just type wut and an LLM will explain whatever's in your terminal. You’ll be surprised how useful this is. I use it mainly to understand and debug stack traces, but there are a bunch of other use cases: - Deciphering error codes - Fixing incorrect commands - Summarizing logs You can connect wut to OpenAI, Anthropic, or a local model via Ollama. I hope y’all find this as helpful as I do!
