Show HN: TempCD – Temporarily CD in a directory with one command

Source: Show HN · Added Friday, November 13, 2026

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.
