It's better if there is a similar design like PowerShell ISE

Research direction

The issue provides no file, test, or entry point. Start by locating the existing Command Explorer and reviewing the linked PowerShell ISE design reference. Define the catalog behavior and scope before implementation; done requires an agreed design and a working catalog that makes commands easier to find.
