Show HN: TempCD – Temporarily CD in a directory with one command
TempCD is just a small thing I made, its only purpose it to eliminate having to enter cd again after only wanting to do one command in a directory. Super simple, just: > tcd ~/example ~/example> command command output > That's it, just returns you back to where you were before without having to type cd again.

Adoption decision
Evaluate it against the tool or manual workflow it would replace. The stored record supports discovery; it does not yet establish reliability, lower operating cost or commercial adoption.
Unverified requirements
Not verified: license permissions, required hardware, installation steps, maintenance status and a representative task with its failure cases.
Next test
Choose one real task and a current alternative. Record the commit, environment, input, output, elapsed time and failure behavior; retain the result before recommending adoption.
