Shell Shortcuts (proxyon, proxyoff, goto, gpu, conda autostart)

Goal: make a fresh machine behave the same across Windows / macOS / Ubuntu with a small set of commands:

• proxyon / proxyoff: toggle terminal proxy (env vars + Git global proxy)
• goto: persistent path shortcuts (e.g. goto work)
• gpu: show NVIDIA GPU status (nvidia-smi wrapper; Windows/Ubuntu only)
• Optional: auto-activate a Conda env when a new shell starts

This skill is intentionally opinionated:

• Prefer PowerShell on Windows for the full goto experience.
• Keep everything idempotent by putting functions/scripts behind a clearly-marked block.

Defaults (edit as needed)

• HTTP/HTTPS proxy: http://127.0.0.1:7890
• SOCKS5 proxy: socks5://127.0.0.1:7890
• NO_PROXY: localhost,127.0.0.1,.qualcomm.com,*.amazonaws.com

Windows: PowerShell (recommended)

Edit your PowerShell profile: $PROFILE

Add (or replace) a block like below. The goto DB is $HOME\.goto_paths.json.

Windows: CMD (optional)

CMD has a reserved goto keyword. Use jump as the real command, and optionally alias goto to jump for interactive sessions via doskey.

Recommended layout:

• Put scripts in C:\Users\<You>\bin\
• Add that folder to PATH (or do it in your CMD startup script)

Create C:\Users\<You>\cmd_startup.cmd:

@echo off
set "PATH=%USERPROFILE%\bin;%PATH%"

REM Optional: conda auto-activate (edit these)
REM call "D:\ProgramData\miniconda3\condabin\conda.bat" activate wayne3.10

REM Interactive alias only (scripts/cmd /c should call jump directly)
doskey goto=jump $*

Enable AutoRun (current user):

reg add "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Command Processor" /v AutoRun /t REG_SZ /d "%USERPROFILE%\cmd_startup.cmd" /f

Implement these .cmd files under %USERPROFILE%\bin:

proxyon.cmd / proxyoff.cmd: set/unset proxy env vars and set/unset Git global proxy.

gpu.cmd: run nvidia-smi.

jump.cmd: persistent shortcut DB at %USERPROFILE%\.goto_paths (format: key|C:\abs\path).

If you need exact templates, read shell-shortcuts/references/windows-cmd.md.

macOS / Ubuntu (bash/zsh)

Add functions to ~/.zshrc or ~/.bashrc:

• proxyon / proxyoff
• goto (persistent DB at ~/.goto_paths)
• Ubuntu: gpu (requires nvidia-smi)

Templates are in shell-shortcuts/references/unix.md (copy/paste and adjust proxy defaults).
