A small collection of practical PowerShell utilities written collaboratively by Tom and Grok.
These are right-brain friendly helpers for everyday Windows / PowerShell work — especially useful when dealing with large project trees, AI development folders, and the kind of navigation and maintenance tasks that pure left-brain shells make unnecessarily painful.
| File | Function | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
cdn.ps1 |
cdn |
Jump to a uniquely named directory anywhere under the current tree |
Get-FolderSizes.ps1 |
Get-FolderSizes |
Show folder sizes while excluding noise (venv, node_modules, .git…) |
Show-Tree.ps1 |
Show-Tree |
Clean recursive tree view with sensible exclusions and depth limit |
Backup-Folder.ps1 |
Backup-Folder |
Safe incremental backup using robocopy (no destructive /MIR) |
The easiest way is to append the functions to your PowerShell profile:
notepad $PROFILEPaste the functions (or the contents of the .ps1 files) under a marker such as:
# === Remember Me and Grok helpers ===Then reload:
. $PROFILEEach script contains a detailed header comment titled:
INSTALLATION NOTE FOR GROK BUILD / OTHER CODING AGENTS
Follow those instructions. Preferred pattern:
- Ensure
$PROFILEexists. - Append the function under a clear marker comment.
- Never overwrite existing profile content.
- Tell the user to run
. $PROFILEor restart the session.

Short version: use freely, keep the attribution, and remember it was made by a human and Grok working together.
Enjoy.
