Is there a utility program that can describe a command line that Iām about to run?
This works. Ironically a program that explains CLIs doesn't have a CLI.

Enter a command to see help text for each arg
You can see how the parsing works in the source code (with a specific high level explanation of how this part works), as the site is an open source project.

Help with monitor setup
PyGrid was the first one. A command-line solution for X11-based desktop with Python3 installed. It's pretty easy to setup and I strongly recommend.

Looking for a Wayland (Gnome) compatible window placing/sizing tool
I've been using a combination of pop_shell (for window focus{north,south,east,west} keybinds and a pleasing focused window border) and a slightly modified version of pygrid which is a fork of QuickTile to manage sizing and placement of windows for a while. My pygrid setup mimics spectacle or rectangle window placement and keybinds. Essentially I have: ctl+alt+right - Move window to top right corner with 33% screen width and 50% screen height. Repeat cycles 50%,50% and 66%,50% shift+ctrl+alt+right - Same but bottom right.
