I don't agree with 'ageofwant’s prediction (though I really wish that I could), but command discovery is a solved problem:

Pharo Smalltalk has a nifty feature whereby you can find methods by example[1].

E.g. typing

    'hello, world', 'HELLO, WORLD' 
in the finder returns the method `asUppercase` on the String class.

In a statically-typed language, you can just search by function signature (e.g. Clip -> RotatedClip (an effect) or Clip -> Time -> Clip * Clip (a cut)).
