Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

@arcis/cli

v1.2.1

Published

Arcis security CLI — scan running apps, audit source, and check dependencies. Native Rust binary distributed via npm.

Readme

@arcis/cli

Native Arcis security CLI, distributed via npm. Installs a single static binary on every supported platform.

npm install -g @arcis/cli
arcis --help

What it does

arcis is a security scanner with three subcommands:

  • arcis scan — send live attack payloads at a running web app and report which got through.
  • arcis audit — scan source code for known-unsafe patterns (Python / JavaScript / TypeScript). JSON and SARIF output for CI.
  • arcis sca — match installed dependencies against the supply-chain threat database.
# Scan a running app for injection vulnerabilities
arcis scan http://localhost:5000

# Static audit of a project
arcis audit ./src

# Supply-chain check
arcis sca .

Run arcis --list for the full command catalog.

How it works

This package is a thin wrapper. npm install runs a postinstall script that:

  1. Detects your platform and architecture.
  2. Downloads the matching native binary from the GitHub Release pinned to this package's version.
  3. Verifies the SHA-256 against the release's SHA256SUMS file.
  4. Drops it as bin/arcis-bin so the npm bin shim can exec it.

No runtime dependencies. No language toolchain to install.

Supported platforms

| Platform | Architecture | Binary | |-----------------|--------------|-------------------------------------------| | Linux (musl) | x86_64 | arcis-<v>-x86_64-unknown-linux-musl | | Linux (musl) | aarch64 | arcis-<v>-aarch64-unknown-linux-musl | | macOS | arm64 | arcis-<v>-aarch64-apple-darwin | | Windows (MSVC) | x86_64 | arcis-<v>-x86_64-pc-windows-msvc |

The musl Linux builds are statically linked and run on Alpine, FROM scratch Docker images, and minimal CI runners.

Skipping the install download

If you install with --ignore-scripts, the binary won't be fetched. You can rerun the installer manually:

node $(npm root -g)/@arcis/cli/install.js

Or set ARCIS_CLI_SKIP_INSTALL=1 to defer the download intentionally (useful for offline-first CI images that vendor the binary themselves).

Source

The binary is built from the packages/arcis-rust/ Rust workspace in the Arcis monorepo. Build pipeline: .github/workflows/rust-release.yml.
