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 🙏

MCP server for consulting Anthropic Claude Code CLI from Codex and other MCP clients

Readme

@ask-llm/claude-mcp

MCP server for consulting Anthropic Claude Code CLI from Codex CLI, Cursor, OpenCode, and other MCP clients. It fills the reverse collaboration path: Claude can ask Codex through @ask-llm/codex-mcp, and Codex can ask Claude through @ask-llm/claude-mcp.

Install for Codex CLI

codex mcp add claude -- npx -y @ask-llm/claude-mcp

Then ask Codex to use ask-claude for an independent review or second opinion.

This provider is for Codex and other non-Claude hosts. Claude Code rejects nested Claude Code sessions; the unified orchestrator automatically suppresses the Claude provider when Claude Code is already the host.

Prerequisites

  • Node.js 20 or newer.
  • Claude Code CLI installed, on PATH, and authenticated. The implementation is validated against Claude Code 2.1.206 and requires a version that supports --safe-mode.

Tools

  • ask-claude — ask Claude for analysis, with optional native sessionId, model override, and relative includeDirs.
  • get-usage-stats — in-memory token and duration totals.
  • ping — verify the MCP server and Claude CLI installation.

Safety boundary

Every consultation runs Claude Code with --safe-mode and an explicit Read,Glob,Grep tool list. Claude can inspect the current workspace and allowed relative directories, but cannot run shell commands or modify files. Prompts are sent through stdin rather than command-line arguments.

Models and configuration

  • Default: opus (override with ASK_CLAUDE_MODEL).
  • Fallback: sonnet (override with ASK_CLAUDE_FALLBACK_MODEL). Claude Code's native --fallback-model handles overload or availability failures.
  • Timeout: 600000 ms (override with ASK_CLAUDE_TIMEOUT_MS, then GMCPT_TIMEOUT_MS).

The tool returns both human-readable text and a structured AskResponse with the actual model, native Claude session ID, and token usage when the CLI reports it.
