I'll break down this Lean code line by line:

elab tk:"#trans_imports" stx:(str)? : command => do

• This line defines a custom Lean elaborator (command) named #trans_imports
• tk:"#trans_imports" specifies the syntax for invoking this command
• stx:(str)? means the command optionally takes a string argument
• : command => indicates this is a command-level elaborator
• do starts a do-block for sequential imperative-style operations

let imports := (← getEnv).allImportedModuleNames

• ← getEnv retrieves the current environment
• .allImportedModuleNames gets a list of all transitively imported module names
• Assigns this list to the imports variable

let currMod := if let mod@(.str _ _) := ← getMainModule then m!"'{mod}' has " else ""

• ← getMainModule retrieves the current main module
• Pattern matches to check if it's a string-based module name
• If it is, creates a formatted string with the module name
• Otherwise, sets currMod to an empty string

let rest := match stx with
    | none => m!""
    | some str =>
      let imps := imports.filterMap fun (i : Name) =>
        if i.toString.startsWith str.getString then some i else none
      m!"\n\n{imps.size} starting with {str}:\n{imps.qsort (·.toString < ·.toString)}"

• Pattern matches on the optional string argument stx
• If no argument (none), rest is an empty string
• If an argument exists (some str):
  • filterMap creates a new list of imports that start with the given string
  • qsort sorts the filtered imports alphabetically
  • Creates a formatted string showing the number of matching imports and their names

logInfoAt tk m!"{currMod}{imports.size} transitive imports{rest}"

• logInfoAt tk logs an informational message at the specified token
• Formats a message showing:
  • The current module name (if applicable)
  • Total number of transitive imports
  • Optional additional details about filtered imports (if a string argument was provided)

This appears to be a Lean command that lists all transitively imported modules, with an optional filter to show only modules starting with a specific string.
