Reverse engineered prompt
Build me a Windows command line package that lets people use familiar Linux and macOS file commands directly in CMD and PowerShell, without needing WSL. It should feel like one native tool that includes common utilities like cat, cp, find, grep, ls, mkdir, mv, pwd, rm, sleep, sort, tee, and uptime, so existing scripts and pipelines mostly work the same way on Windows.
Make the installer easy to use and suitable for release builds. It should work well with PowerShell 7.4 or newer, and it should handle the awkward cases where Windows or PowerShell already has commands with the same names. Please include clear help text for each command and a simple README that explains installation, shell conflicts, and Windows differences like CRLF line endings, NUL instead of dev null, path separators, permissions, and symbolic links.
Use Rust for the command line parts if possible, and look up current docs online if you need to.
