Emacs Commands I Got by with for Years
Check out marginalia[1]. Whenever you press M-x, it will pop up a buffer showing all the commands (with most recent ones on top) along with their keybindings and a brief description of what they do.
Embark[2] is also cool. It will show all the possible commands relevant to where the cursor is at that moment. I bind it to C-c a.

Packages that you would like to be in emacs core ?
Then there is Marginalia which is IMO essential

Why does elpaca make emacs startup so much faster?
Wow, interesting that my response is getting down voted. It seems not enough that I give away my work for free. Nevertheless I appreciate support from the community, as other Emacs package developers. The support is actually helpful. To clarify, publishing my configuration would translate into quite a bit of work, requiring separation of private and public bits.

(void-variable string-width) error by consult-buffer
There seems to be some problem with straight not correctly installing or updating compat. See these issues on Marginalia and Embark where straight seems to not install Compat.

What does Vertico offer over icomplete-vertical?
Note that I contribute to Emacs core itself from time to time but the process is discussion-heavy and thus time consuming. If you are familiar with the completing-read API, you may know the annotation-function of completion tables. The name already tells that this function just adds annotations to the completion candidates. The Marginalia package (written by /u/oantolin and me) provides such annotations. A similar function is the group-function, which groups candidates in subsets and adds titles above the subsets. I wrote the patch which added this feature to Emacs. It is now supported by default completion, Icomplete, Vertico and maybe other UIs. The initial implementation was done in the earlier Selectrum package, and a little later in Vertico.

[ANN] Vertico 1.0 and Marginalia 1.0
At the end of the year, I am happy to announce the stable Vertico 1.0 and Marginalia 1.0 releases. Vertico is a minimalist, yet flexible and responsive vertical completion UI. Marginalia provides helpful annotations for many completion contexts. Both packages have been solid for a while but I rather let things mature slowly. These releases finally put the stamp "stable" on these two packages. I expect the other members of the package suite to follow soon after. Both packages have been updated recently to support the newest Emacs 29 features. They are compatible with Emacs 27, 28 and the upcoming 29.

org-cc: Custom completions for Org (WIP)
I) I started out trying to implement this using marginalia, like the consult commands, but quickly concluded that this wasn't the way to go here... please correct me if I'm wrong and there is more from these packages I could make use of. I also try to make use of as much of the citar codebase as possible, but have found it difficult so far: a lot seems too specific for bibliographic entries.

Idea/Question: Using "feature-full" packages (e.g. dired) for completion?
I can't find anything that seems to discuss them in detail, but Marginalia is a package that applies them widely in completion. And here is a simple example for customized file completion.

Consult 0.8 and Marginalia 0.6 released on GNU ELPA
I've only been skeptical, I didn't reject the idea. If you read my very first comment in the thread were you suggested adding the package to ELPA, I wrote that I already had considered it. So I think nothing has really changed. I had to test first how the ELPA workflow works, which I did with my Vertico and Corfu packages. After that went positive, there was no strong argument to not make the move. Initially I was hesitant since ELPA requires the assignment, I didn't have it at that time and I wasn't yet sure about the direction Consult was taking. It could have been that Consult would have been much more of a kitchen sink with many contributors, accepting more controversial commands. But then I concluded that it is better to keep Consult somehow focused (it still is a kitchen sink!), and keep wider functionality in external packages to help with the modularity. This is mainly thanks to /u/purcell who convinced me to not throw everything together in a single consult.el file, when I added consult-flycheck, which lives now in its own repository outside ELPA.
