According to Microsoft, at the time Windows 7 was in development an internal tool called “Cmdlet Designer” was used to build applicable PowerShell cmdlets for the operating system. Cmdlet Designer takes away many of the pains for design, naming, and consistency for cmdlets, offering:
Integrated help authoring
Efficient bulk operations
Generation of cmdlet code
Full scripting support
Automatic code-spec comparison and testing
Role-based security
History logging
For developers, the Cmdlet Designer tool can be used for:
UI on top of Cmdlets
UI extensibility through scripting
Cmdlet / Webservice interaction
Role-based security, with a trusted subsystem implementation
Cmdlet Designer free for everyone, released under the Microsoft Public License (MS-PL). The download includes the source code, design specification, and the deployment guide.
The free tool is available for download from Codeplex: PowerShell Cmdlet and Help Designer
