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 🙏

Codebase indexer and MCP server for AI coding agents

Readme

cidx

Codebase indexer and MCP server for AI coding agents.

cidx parses your source code using tree-sitter, stores symbols, definitions, and cross-file references in a local SQLite database, and exposes search and navigation via an MCP server. This gives AI coding agents structural awareness of large codebases — not just grep-level text search, but actual symbol resolution.

Status

Early development. The npm package is a placeholder while the native binary is being built. Follow the GitHub repository for progress.

Installation

npm install -g cidx

The npm package will install a pre-built native binary for your platform. Until then, you can build from source via Cargo:

cargo install cidx

What it does

  • Parses source files with tree-sitter (Rust, TypeScript, Python, and more)
  • Indexes symbols, definitions, and references into a local SQLite + FTS5 database
  • Runs as a Unix daemon with a file watcher for incremental updates
  • Exposes an MCP server so AI agents can query the index directly
